Common Configuration Solutions:
Login page displays "Unable to renew license"
You see the following error message on frevvo's login page when you try to access the login page in your browser at http://<yourhost><port>/frevvo/web/login
"Unable to renew license for 1 attempt(s). Your license will expire in 2 day(s). Please contact frevvo for help."
You will also see the following error in the tomcat log file:
WARNING: License monitor: failed to authorize start up for 0 attempts. Next attempt in 1 hours.
This is often caused by running your web app container (ex: tomcat) under a Oracle JDK or JRE that is not version 1.5.0 update 8 or later. Verify that you are running with the required JDK or JRE. If not, to solve this, download & install JDK or JRE 1.5.0 version 8 or later from http://www.sun.com. Set your JAVA_HOME on windows to the JDK or JRE install directory on your computer. Then restart your web app container.
This may also be caused by an incorrect string content in the license key. To check the license, login via superuser and then click "Server Configuration". You can also check the users schema resource table in your database. This table has an entry with the license information.
Unable to contact license server
This may be due to your external http traffic being routed through a proxy server.
If your company uses a proxy server, your Form Server may not be able to communicate with the license server directly. has web configuration parameters to enable communication from the Form Server to the license server via your proxy. Edit the following parameters in <frevvo installdir>/frevvo/tomcat/webapps/frevvo/WEB-INF/web.xml or override them at the container level by putting the parameters into frevvo.xml, eg: on Tomcat in tomcat/config/catalina/localhost/frevvo.xml.
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
frevvo.proxy.host | HTTP Proxy Host |
frevvo.proxy.port | HTTP Proxy port |
frevvo.proxy.username | HTTP username |
frevvo.proxy.password | HTTP password |
frevvo.proxy.ldap | true | false |
Set frevvo.proxy.ldap to true to enable NTLM authentication proxy access.
The trial license fails to install
