RE: Liferay portal Stuck at "Starting dynamic bundles"

I have the same problem. Anyone have answers? For me this happened on version 7.3.7 CE AND 7.3 DXP, I was running both. If Liferay is going to run for a while and then die, I can't imagine you'd still be in business. There must be an answer??

Liferay portal Stuck at "Starting dynamic bundles"

2021-10-11T14:00:50Z

Liferay Portal 7.4.1 GA1 (Tomcat)

Database MySQL 8

RAM : 14 GB

OS: Ubuntu Linux

Java JDK 8

The liferay portal was running fine for months, until a sudden computer server shutdown. When I try to start liferay again, it get stuck at "starting dynamic bundles". As you can see in my logs below.

When I download another portal, it works fine but I need my original portal!

I'd like to know,

- What are the troubleshooting tips can you give?

- Is there a way to see the logs of what's going on while starting dynamic bundles? like a verbose log property settings?

I tried to increase JVM memory as you can see below but still the issue persists.

Here are my logs :
