This is a reinstallation of SAP BO 4.2 SP6 on Server 2016. After completing the web install, and then rebooting the server, i get this error:

Note: This server had worked, but we are testing automated installations. I uninistalled, deleted all the files, history, registry, etc. We deleted the localhost directory and then restarted Tomcat. We still get this error and HTTP Error 500.

you forgot to mention where you see this error, or where exactly you see http 500.

I'm assuming the exception is from tomcat log

So, the suggestion then would be to try to manually redeploy webapps.
And if it doesn't help then review the installation logs for any irregularities.

Just try to delete the "localhost" directory from the "work" directory of tomat (of course after stopping the tomcat) (stop - delete - start)

Denis, thanks for the reply. Yes, the Framework error is in the stderr.log file. I see the 500 error when I try to access via IE.

I have redeployed by deleting localhost, but I still got the same errors.

Can you point me to the install logs?

Currently trying to all the installer to repair.

Thanks again.

I allowed the installer to repair, but am still getting the error.

I have found that frequently after a repair install, I still need to run wdeploy to redeploy the web apps. Even though the installer shows that it it's deploying the web app, it doesn't seem to work correctly.

Here's what I'll do for this:

1. Stop Tomcat.

2. Go to the tomcat\work folder and delete the Catalina folder and its contents. Frequently I get errors about the path being too long, so I'll rename "Catalina" to "C" and "Localhost" to "L" to prevent the issue.

3. In the folder where BusinessObjects is installed, go to the "wdeploy" subfolder and run wdeploygui.bat as Administrator. It will probably take a while to do its thing.

4. Start Tomcat. It will take a while to rebuild the cache before its available.

Thanks. Why would this be happening on the first installation? I am starting with a clean server.

We were facing similar errors - launching browser for the launchpad just showed not found errors, etc. after applying patches and upgrades on BI, IPS, and DS. Following these steps by Dell to redeploy the webapps resolved the issues. Keep in mind that even after wdeploy is done, it does take some more time for tomcat to 'rebuild' whatever it needs to, so launching a browser right away will still not show anything and just load and load - until that rebuild is done. Patience is key 🙂
