DAE Service Failure during product startup | Online help - EventLog Analyzer

DAE service failure during startup

  1. Open the <dir>:\ManageEngine\EventLog Analyzer\logs\wrapper.log file.
  2. Search for DAEService status in the wrapper file.
  3. If it hasn't been created, look for the serverout_yyyy-mm-dd.txt file from the same day in the logs folder. Check whether the connection via port 9300/9322 has failed.
  4. Open the <dir>:\ManageEngine\elasticsearch\ES\logs\wrapper.log file and check the Elasticsearch (ES) status.
  5. If ES is not running, manually start it by following the steps below:
    1. Open the command prompt with admin privileges.
    2. Navigate to <dir>:\ManageEngine\elasticSearch\ES\bin.
    3. Execute startES.bat to start ES.
  6. Wait for a few seconds and refer to the wrapper.log file again to find out the exact exception. Carry out the steps according to the traces found.
    1. Out of memory or JVM heap memory:
      1. Stop ES by executing the stopES.bat file located at <dir>:\ManageEngine\elasticsearch\ES\bin.
      2. Open the <dir>:\ManageEngine\elasticsearch\ES\config\es-additional-wrapper.conf file.
      3. Increase both the Initial and Maximum Java Heap Size (both should be of the same value) to one-third of the server's RAM size. For example, if the server has 16GB, you can assign up to 4GB as a best practice.
    2. Incorrect read/write permissions (e.g., location not found):
      1. Stop ES by executing the stopES.bat file located at <dir>:\ManageEngine\elasticsearch\ES\bin.
      2. Check if the service account has read/write access to the ES storage location.
      3. Examine the <dir>:\ManageEngine\elasticsearch\ES\config\DAE.properties file and the <dir>:\ManageEngine\elasticsearch\ES\config\elasticsearch.yml file for corruption.
      4. After completing these steps, if ES is running: Stop ES > delete the ES\Data\node.lock file > start EventLog Analyzer.
  7. If the issue persists, reach out to our technical support team
