Installation Issues

New Member Post: 1 Join Date: 12/6/16 Recent Posts

Hi Support,

I've downloaded the Liferay 7.0 bundled with tomcat. Before that I've already installed the java and have set the path etc. Then installed Mysql server.
Extracted the Liferay portal to my C drive. Created portal-ext.properties files as per the instructions provided online. After this when I click startup.bat file to start the Liferay, it doesn't work. the command prompt window comes up for fractions of seconds and then closes automatically. Somehow I'm unable to run the Liferay.
Any help on this wold be much appreciable. I'm using windows 10 Pro.

Try to run the batch file on the command prompt, you will get the cause.

Hi,

In addition to what Viththal suggested, you may open a command prompt and navigate to the directory liferay_home\tomcat_home\bin and run this command:

catalina.bat run

Whatever error exists, it will be printed in the logs, please share it here when you have it.
