Cause

Caused by not able to initiate the OpenJDK - seems like related to permissions. 

Environment

Release : 10.7.0

Component : APPLICATION PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT

Resolution

EM started after changed to the default EM jdk from OpenJDK  in the IntroscopeEnterpriseManager.lax

lax.nl.current.vm=

#   LAX.NL.CURRENT.VM
#   -----------------
#   the VM to use for the next launch

lax.nl.current.vm=/opt/ca/jdk/jre/bin/java

 

If this is a Window server and you are running the Enterprise Manager as a service you will need to modify the EMService.conf file.  It can be found in the <EM Home>\bin folder.
