[ome-users] OMERO.web install under Mac OS X 10.6 - got a new problem

Hi folks,

After I set some values with
  omero web settings

 to use OMERO.web at localhost:8000

 something went wrong, and now I can't bring up the Omero server at all. Darn - thought I was up and running - but not yet. I did not see any error messages when I executed "omero web settings", so don't know why I'm having problems now.

So - I start Postgres, and it runs OK (I check with "pg_ctl status").

I then try

 omero admin start

I don't get any on-screen error msgs, but the startup process times out after five minutes.

The second time I try "omero admin start", I get an one-line onscreen msg saying
   Icegridnode: failure occurred in daemon

And there is a one line entry in
  /Library/Omero/Versions/4.1.1/omero_dist/lob/master.err

Saying that there is an icegridnode error: an IceGrid registry is already running and listening on client endpoints 'tcp -h 127.0.0.1 -p 4061'


I have attached all the log files that I get after I did another shutdown of my Mac, started Postgres again, and then attempt a
  omero admin start

As before, I simply get a time out msg after 5 minutes, with no error msg to the command prompt window.

I have also attached my .bash_profile file, in case I did something wrong there.

Any help would be much appreciated, as always.

 Ron

Hi Ron,

  Yes, you are exactly right.
localhost:8000

The other settings don't really matter. You can make up any invalid values here if you don't actually want the webclient to try and send mail for you.

And then connect to
localhost:8000/webadmin or ocalhost:8000/webclient

Good luck,

   Will.
