Please let me know :
if the issue with the Admin Server or Managed Server ?
Are you starting the server through StartScript , or WLST or Admin Console .

If the server is started through the start script and removing the ldap dir and boot.properties does not resolve the issue then
you may have to reset the Admin Password .
you can follow the below link :
http://shivabizint.wordpress.com/2012/10/15/how-to-reset-the-lost-weblogic-admin-user-password/

But before that you should make sure that the authentication provider for the domain is default authentication provider and not the external authentication provider .

If the authentication provider is external then you may need to reset the password from external ldap .
Also move the ldap dir and boot.properties files if locally present .

Only difference in case the server is started through the Admin Console / WLST is that you have to move the nodemanager dir also present is the
doamin_home/servers/ms1/data/nodemanager

Kindly suggest …

# if the below directory doesn’t exist, execute command below
mkdir ~/.mozilla/plugins

# firefox plugin folder *FOR ALL USERS*: /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins

# Download the latest (“Oracle”, preferably) Java JRE .tar.gz file.
# *NOTE*: Replace ALL “X” with the most current Java version you download.
# Move “jre-XuXX-linux-x64.tar.gz” to “/usr/lib/jvm”.
cd /usr/lib/jvm
tar -xf jre-XuXX-linux-x64.tar.gz

# only run below command if you don’t have a “javaX.X” file in “/usr/bin”
sudo mkdir /usr/bin/javaX.X

sudo mv /usr/bin/java /usr/bin/javaX.X
sudo mv /usr/bin/javaws /usr/bin/javaX.X
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/jreX.X.X/bin/java /usr/bin/java
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/jreX.X.X/bin/javaws /usr/bin/javaws

# Now, check if you did everything correctly by inputting commands below.
cd /usr/bin
ls -l |grep ja
java -version

#To upgrade to new version of Java, repeat the same steps.

This seems to be an issue with the classpath .
Can you check the classpath variable of the prompt from where you are executing command : nmStrart(‘AdminServer’)
The issue seems to be with the “c:/program files ” dir placed in the either classpath or path variable.
As there is a space between the file name , the issue is there .

Try to use double quotes (“) .

please paste the values of the variables : CLASSPATH and PATH of the command prompt from where you are executing the nmStart() .

if we view the adminServer.out it is showing like this:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Files\Java\jdk1/6/0_33\jre\bin;C:\Program

Exception in thread “main”

can you share the error message while node manager is trying to start the Managed Server in such secnarios.
As per my understanding there will be a lck file getting creating in : servers/MS1/tmp/MS1.lck which is preventing the server startup.
so try to add a command : rm -rf servers/MS1/tmp/MS1.lck in your script and then node manager should be able to start the Managed Server .

In any case please share the error logs for better understanding of the issue .

Thanks a ton for saving my day :)
