This error not occuring after installation. Thingworx was working fine for years, suddenly this error happened. Thanks for your help.

 

I cleared this error "12:13:21.173 [main] ERROR com.thingworx.system.configuration.PlatformSettings - Configuration setting ContentTypeSettings.supportedMediaEntityContentTypes cannot be null" in logs. Its working now. 
 
So i added this code in platform-settings.json.
"ContentTypeSettings": {
"supportedMediaEntityContentTypes":["image/svg+xml","image/png","image/gif","image/bmp","image/jpeg","application/pdf", "application/json", "image/vnd.microsoft.icon"]
}

Hi @AP_9587236 

 

You can check the Tomcat and ThingWorx log files to check for errors and possibly restart Tomcat

 

Hope this helps

Sorry this is not a accepted solution. By mistake i clicked the button. 

 

Btw @cmorfin , i tried restarting tomcat, cleared logs, updated chrome, restarted system, checked platform-setting file, cleared storage space in machine, no other apps are  running. But still thingworx server is not connecting but tomcat is working fine. 

 

I seen error in twdata of pgAdmin. I attached the image. Does that matters? 

 

And I can see these errors in Application logs:-

2021-08-24 15:40:30.229+0530 [L: ERROR] [O: c.t.s.ThingWorxServer] [I: ] [U: SuperUser] [S: ] [T: main] [message: Connections could not be acquired from the underlying database!]

Hi @AP_9587236 

 

Can you upload tomcat and ThingWorx log files ?

I attached tomcat logs here. And thingworx logs file exceeds limit. Kindly download from this link.

I see from your other post that you identify the root cause, basically ThingWorx cannot connect to Postgres.

The article https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS235937 should help you isolate what is wrong.
