Subject: [EXTERNAL] Problem deploying Archiver Appliance

Hello everybody.

I'm deploying a basic Archiver Appliance in a Virtual Machine with the install_scripts/single_machine_install.sh script. I have encountered the next error in the retrieval/logs/catalina.err file:

Nov 29, 2023 4:00:30 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext listenerStart

Has someone encountered this problem? It also happens when I use the quickstart.sh script. I have tried with a CentOS 7 and Debian 10 VMs and in both I have the same issue.

There is another minor problem in the log:

Nov 29, 2023 4:00:21 PM org.apache.catalina.core.AprLifecycleListener lifecycleEvent
INFO: The Apache Tomcat Native library which allows using OpenSSL was not found on the java.library.path: [/home/usuario/archappl_install/retrieval/webapps/mgmt/WEB-INF/lib/native/linux-x86_64:/home/usuario/archappl_install/etl/webapps/mgmt/WEB-INF/lib/native/linux-x86_64:/home/usuario/archappl_install/engine/webapps/mgmt/WEB-INF/lib/native/linux-x86_64:/home/usuario/archappl_install/mgmt/webapps/mgmt/WEB-INF/lib/native/linux-x86_64:/home/usuario/EPICS/epics-base/lib/linux-x86_64:/home/usuario/archappl_install/apache-tomcat-10.1.16/lib:/usr/lib/jvm/jdk-17-oracle-x64/lib/server:/usr/lib/jvm/jdk-17-oracle-x64/lib:/usr/java/packages/lib:/usr/lib64:/lib64:/lib:/usr/lib]

However, I don't think that this is the problem which it's blocking me, but it's still interesting to know what's happening with the SSL library, because I think that the dependencies are already installed.

Thanks in advance. Eusebio.
