PSRENSRV process fails to start.
PSRENSRV_mmdd.LOG:
(FATAL) nsmain: configuration file empty or missing ns/servers section (162,2076)
(ERROR) Server failed to start
When you start the Application Server, the PSRENSRV process fails to start. The following error is logged to APPSRV_MMDD.log:
REN configuration file not found.
Also, the following error may be logged to PSRENSRV_mmdd.LOG
(FATAL) nsmain: configuration file empty or missing ns/servers section (162,2076)
(ERROR) Server failed to start
Steps
1. Start Application Server (with 'Event Notification' enabled)
2. Application Server fails to start with message:
exec PSRENSRV -A -- -C psappsrv.cfg -D TESTSERV -S PSRENSRV :
CMDTUX_CAT:1685: ERROR: Application initialization failure
tmboot: CMDTUX_CAT:827: ERROR: Fatal error encountered; initiating user error handler
Cause
The REN configuration file (psrenconfig.txt) is missing or corrupted.
Solution :
Follow these steps in order to correct problems with the REN configuration file
in your PeopleTools environment:
1. A default REN configuration file is delivered when PeopleTools is installed.
Whenever a new application server domain is created, it is populated with this file.
So we need to make sure the file exists, and is not corrupted, as follows:
a. Go to <PS_HOME>/appserv/ren.
b. Within this directory, there should be a file called psrenconfig.txt
c. If the file exists, make sure if it not corrupted, as follows:
-Open file and it should be readable (this is a text file).
-Verify that the last line is '#### END OF FILE #####'.
d. If file does not exist, or is corrupted, then get a new copy from your DEMO system.
2. Next, place a new copy of psrenconfig.txt into the application server domain
where you are getting the PSRENSRV error, as follows:
a. Copy psrenconfig.txt
From: <PS_HOME>/appserv/ren
To: <PS_CFG_HOME>/appserv/<DOMAIN_NAME>.
b. If you had made any customizations to the previous psrenconfig.txt file,
you'll need to remake the changes.
3. After making the above changes, restart the application server.
