Endeca Problems

I’m fairly new to Endeca, and certainly had many Endeca problems. They stemmed from 2 issues:

1. Not provisioning the CRS Endeca app correctly from CIM

It’s really picky to get the app to import correctly (especially if you’ve imported it and deleted it once before). After doing this a few times, I came up with this script to help remove the CRS app entirely so that it can be retried.

2. Endeca is not running

You should be 100% sure that all parts of Endeca are running before doing almost everything in the post. You can start the various parts of Endeca using:

Platform Services:/opt/endeca/PlatformServices/11.1.0/tools/server/bin/startup.sh

Tools & Frameworks (workbench):/opt/oracle/endeca/ToolsAndFrameworks/11.1.0/server/bin/startup.sh

CAS:/opt/endeca/endeca/CAS/11.1.0/bin/cas-service.sh

Although now I prefer to just start the workbench, then login and manually turn the other services on.
