Can't open ma-start.bat

---

I can't open the ma-start.bat file on my server? It opens and runs about half way thru the setup and closes.
It has been fine up until now, but windows did an automatic upgrade to my server last night and I assume this is the issue.

Ideas?

Cheers,

Rick

Try right clicking on it and running as Administrator.

No luck with that either?

You can get some tips here: https://help.infiniteautomation.com/windows-installation

But this method will allow you to see the error:

Open your start menu and search for “cmd”
Right Click on cmd.exe and select Run As Administrator, this will open the Command Prompt
Type“ “CD C:<your mango directory>/bin such as ”CD C:\Mango\bin”
Type “ma-start.bat” to start Mango

If Mango fails to start there should be an error in the output.

Hey Joel, Here's the error:

The first error is your issue. "Address already in use" . this means something is using the port that you are trying to start Mango on. Is it possible Mango is already running?

Hi Rowen,

That would suggest Mango or another application is already using the web.port set in your Mango/overrides/properties/env.properties file. If it's not there copy it over from Mango/classes/env.properties

You can try tp navigate to http://localhost:8080 in your browser (8080 is the default port, but you may have changed it in the env.properties file).

@joelhaggar So we set this up with my Enteliweb running on port 8080 and Mango running on port 80.

I think your Mango is running on port 8090. You can check in your /overrides/properties/env.properties file

Joel, Here's what I see in the env.properties files

Hi Rowen,

Why are there three copies of that property? There should only be one entry for any given property in an env.properties file.

@joelhaggar

This is what's currently in the env.properties file.
My Enteliweb runs on port 8080, so I must change Mango to another port.

I assume.

@phildunlap Sorry I labelled them but it didn't show up. 1 is the Mango\classes folder
1 is Mango\override\properties folder

Mango\override\properties or Mango\overrides\properties ?

If you change the port set in Mango/overrides/properties/env.properties does Mango start? Have you tried navigating to that port in your browser?

Hi Phil, So I changed the port 8090 and after a restart all is running again. Thanks!!

Cheers,
