If you cannot start the PPM Server, check the serverLog.txt file (located in the <PPM_Home>/server/<PPM Server>/logs directory) for error messages. If the serverLog.txt file contains no error messages, increase the server debug level to determine whether any additional helpful information is written to the log.

To increase the server debug level:

1. Open the logging.conf file (located in the <PPM_Home>/conf directory) in a text editor.

2. Set the value of the SERVER_DEBUG_LEVEL parameter to HIGH, and then save and close the logging.conf file.

3. Run the kUpdateHtml.sh script.

4. Rerun the kStart.sh script, and then recheck the serverLog.txt file to determine whether it contains any additional information.

5. Open the logging.conf file.

6. Restore the default value of the SERVER_DEBUG_LEVEL parameter.

   Note: Restoring the default value ensures that the file system does fill up with unnecessary information recorded in the serverLog.txt file(s).

7. Run the kUpdateHtml.sh script.

If the Web browser accessing the PPM URL generates a "Not Found" or an "Access Denied" error, check the server.conf file and the external Web server (if one exists) to ensure that the PPM Server installation directory is specified correctly.

If the PPM Server has recently been upgraded and the URL has changed, make sure that any saved links to the previous PPM URL (for example, existing requests) are updated to point to the new URL.
