restart windchill with error

FATAL [main] wt.method.server - MethodServerMain abort
wt.util.WTRemoteException: Unable to register server; nested exception is:
 java.lang.SecurityException: access denied

Can you share more of the stack trace?

[avillanueva]

What OS are you on? Spit balling as we need more information. Could this be file access related? Installing as root but running as another user? Could this be services like SELinux or fapolicyd? Could this be Java certs issue (less likely)?

[jbailey]

I have even seen similar on an out of memory error, or maybe an expired SSL cert

Did you clone the environment from source before upgrading?
It seems that you have not modified the following information:

• java.rmi.server.hostname property in the wt.properties file
• Hosts file:
  • etc/hosts for Unix platforms
  • C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts for Windows platform

Please confirm above!
