    Hi, we're still using 8.0.3.   On our secondary server (AIX) when trying to start Process Flow, we're receiving some funky errors. Doesn't seem to matter which piece we start.

    For example, when I try to start up the em with servers.pl script, I get the following error......

    The java class could not be loaded. java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError

    Has anybody ever seen this error before or have an idea on how to resolve it? Knowledge Base on the Lawson Support site did not help on this one.

    Thanks.

    Regards,

    sm

      Sounds to me to be a CLASSPATH issue... Check that. Did you just update Java? Perhaps JAVA_HOME is set to the new Java, and the class that is trying to be loaded is in the old CLASSPATH?
      Just guesses though... but it's a place to start. Sorry, I don't have access to our 8.0.3 box anymore.

        We had a similar issue in Windows Env 8.03 at one point. I would check that PATH, CLASSPATH and PFCLASSPATH are all set correctly. We had to use short file names (ie: c:\progra~1) in the path to get around the embedded spaces to get the startpf.pl script to work. Do you have more than one version of Java installed or did you install a new version lately? I'm not sure if "which java" or "java -version" work on AIX but there should be similar commands. Another annoyance for us on Windows was that the java for Process Flow was running in the foreground, so when the console user logged out the java instance was killed and pflow stopped working.
