Common NodeManager exceptions (UnsatisfiedLinkError)

Below are few most common issues you might run into when trying to start a NodeManager.

1.

weblogic.nodemanager.common.ConfigException: Native version is enabled but NodeManager native library could not be loaded

Caused by: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no nodemanager in java.library.path

Remedy:

You would need to point your jmv to point to the native library nodemanager.dll file.

This can be done in two ways.

set LD_LIBRARY_PATH=%BEA_HOME%wlserverservenativewin32

set JAVA_OPTIONS=%JAVA_OPTIONS%; %LD_LIBRARY_PATH%;

or

set JAVA_OPTIONS=%JAVA_OPTIONS%;  -Djava.library.path=”C:OracleMiddlewareOracle_Homewlserverservernativewin32″

 

2.

Caused by: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: C:OracleMiddlewareOracle_Homewlserverservernativewin32nodemanager.dll: Can’t load IA 32-bit .dll on a AMD 64 -bit platform

Remedy:   

1.  Create a nodemanager folder under   <BEA_HOME> common folder if it’s a fresh installation as by default this folder is not created

2. Create a nodemanager.properties file under the created nodemanager folder and set the below property.

 NativeVersionEnabled=false

3. Start the NodeManager using the startNodeManager script.
