Servoy Application Server
Server doesn't start
- Is the database containing the Servoy Repository running? Note that the Servoy Application Server doesn't start a database, not even the bundled PostgreSQL database.
- Does the application Server fail to start after disabling or updating the SSL settings? The passwords of the database connectiosn defined of the server and stored in the servoy.properties file are encrypted using the SSL settings. due to the update to the SSL settings, the passwords cannot be decrypted anymore. Remedy: manually reset the passwords in the servoy.properties file
Network errors
Some Java environments start with IPv6 Stack. If this happens, while actually running IPv4, the result might be network errors. In order to prevent errors, the Servoy Application Server can be started with a preference to use the IPv4 Stack.
- Open servoy_server.sh/servoy_server.bat in the <servoy>/application_server/ directory using a text editor
- Add '-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true' to the end of the line that starts with 'java'
- Save the change made

Server crashes
The Servoy Application Server is very robust and is known for its stability and extreme long uptime. In the unlikely event of a crash, this is most likely caused by an out of memory exception, caused by
Servoy Smart Client
Error: cannot find dataservice, it may not be running on server
This error is displayed in the Servoy Smart Client when it can't properly connect to the Servoy Application Server at startup. Most likely cause of this message is incorrect configuration of the Network Settings in combination with firewalls and proxies
Plugin or bean not loading in the Client
If one specific plugin or bean doesn't seem to load in the Client, check the server log around the time when the Servoy Application Server got started. At server startup, all the plugins and beans are loaded. If there is an issue with the plugin or bean, it will be excluded from the list of plugins and beans send to the client. Any issue with the plugin or bean would result in errors in the server log when the server gets started.
You can review the list of plugins that are send to the client by adding "?raw=true" to the url of the Smart Client (http://domain:post/servoy-client/solutionName.jnlp) and then viewing the content of the JNLP file by looking at the source code of the page in the browser.

Oracle: Servoy doesn't see the tables in the database
Most likely cause is the 'Schema' property for the connection. This property must be set to the appropriate 'Schema' in the Oracle database. The value for the 'Schema' property must be all uppercase.
