Products

FileMaker Server

   12.x

   11.x

FileMaker Server Advanced

   12.x

   11.x

In order to address this issue, modify the contents of two Tomcat files:

FileMaker Server 11 file locations:

/Library/FileMaker Server/Admin/admin-master-tomcat/bin/catalina.sh

/Library/FileMaker Server/Web Publishing/publishing-engine/cwpe-tomcat/bin/catalina.sh

FileMaker Server 12 file locations:

/Library/FileMaker Server/Admin/admin-master-tomcat/bin/catalina.sh

/Library/FileMaker Server/Web Publishing/publishing-engine/jwpc-tomcat/bin/catalina.sh

——

The following line will need to be added:

-Djava.awt.headless=true

——

FileMaker Server 11.0v5 (Advanced)

/Library/FileMaker Server/Admin/admin-master-tomcat/bin/catalina.sh before change reads:

JAVA_OPTS="-server -d32 …

Modify with a text editor to read:

JAVA_OPTS="-Djava.awt.headless=true -server -d32 …

/Library/FileMaker Server/Web Publishing/publishing-engine/cwpe-tomcat/bin/catalina.sh before change reads:

JAVA_OPTS="-server -d32 …

Modify with a text editor to read:

JAVA_OPTS="-Djava.awt.headless=true -server -d32 …

——

FileMaker Server 12.0v3 (Advanced)

/Library/FileMaker Server/Admin/admin-master-tomcat/bin/ before change reads:

JAVA_OPTS="-server $(BIT) …

Modify with a text editor to read:

JAVA_OPTS="-Djava.awt.headless=true -server $(BIT) …

/Library/FileMaker Server/Web Publishing/publishing-engine/jwpc-tomcat/bin/catalina.sh change reads:

JAVA_OPTS="-server -d64 -X …

Modify with a text editor to read:

JAVA_OPTS="-Djava.awt.headless=true -server -d64 -X …

——

Afterwards, clear the Java cache and restart the server. You should now be able to launch the Admin Console.
