Failed to start virtuoso server

[AiRyunn]

Hi, I have followed the instructions in REAMDE, but still have problems when starting the virtuoso server.

I downloaded and unzipped virtuoso_db.zip, and confirmed the structure of my directory as follows:

.
├── LICENSE
├── README.md
├── fix_freebase_literal_format.py
├── numeric_properties.txt
├── virtuoso.py
└── virtuoso_db
    ├── virtuoso.db
    ├── virtuoso.ini
    ├── virtuoso.lck
    └── virtuoso.log

1 directory, 9 files

Then I ran the command: python3 virtuoso.py start 3001 -d virtuoso_db, the process exits after ~15 seconds, showing the following output:

virtuoso_db/virtuoso.ini
==== Starting Virtuoso server for virtuoso_db on port 3001...
RUNNING: /home/ubuntu/data/virtuoso-opensource/bin/virtuoso-t +configfile virtuoso_db/virtuoso.ini +wait
The VDBMS server process terminated prematurely
after opening the database.

Then I checked virtuoso.log, which gave the following message:

                Fri Jul 14 2023
22:46:14 OpenLink Virtuoso Universal Server
22:46:14 Version 07.20.3229-pthreads for Linux as of Aug 15 2018
22:46:14 uses parts of OpenSSL, PCRE, Html Tidy

Unfortunately, the server exits almost immediately and there isn't much informative log output.

Any help in troubleshooting this problem would be greatly appreciated.

System Information

• Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS

I met the same problem. When I check the log, it says:

18:05:26 It is impossible to have a database file virtuoso_db/virtuoso.db with a length not multiple of 2MB. 18:05:26 The process must have last terminated while growing the file. 18:05:26 Please contact OpenLink Customer Support

Just found the issue. The NumberOfBuffers and MaxDirtyBuffers in virtuoso.ini were set too high by virtuoso.py. That's why the process was killed by the os without any output. Lowered the buffer sizes and the problem is resolved.

It seems like your issue is different from my case. Based on the error message, your database might be corrupted because the file size is not a multiple of 2MB. Can you verify the file size by running ls -l virtuoso.db? For reference, my virtuoso.db file size is 148679688192 bytes.

It says the size is 23501950976. I just download it from another link in issues (from OneDrive).

I think we downloaded it from the same link. In that case, you might want to verify the database integrity, since it's even smaller than the zip file.

hi, I've lowered the size, but the problem still exists. Now I lower the size like this:

NumberOfBuffers = 608.227294921875 MaxDirtyBuffers = 7.602841186523437

@Lanskttee for your issue, which is different from @AiRyunn as they rightfully pointed out, is most likely due to a corrupted DB file. I'd suggest to download again and make sure the download is 100% complete.

hi! I've downloaded it again and it didn't report this: 18:05:26 It is impossible to have a database file virtuoso_db/virtuoso.db with a length not multiple of 2MB. 18:05:26 The process must have last terminated while growing the file. 18:05:26 Please contact OpenLink Customer Support

But it still exits almost immediately. And it even didn't have a log. There is only a .ini file.

[AiRyunn]

@Lanskttee What is the full output of virtuoso.py and the files in the virtuoso_db directory?

[Lanskttee]

@Lanskttee What is the full output of virtuoso.py and the files in the virtuoso_db directory?

there is only a virtuoso.ini and virtuoso.db in the directory.

the output is:

@Lanskttee The error suggests that the command isn't recognized. Please make sure virtuoso-t is located in D://pycharm//KB-BINDER-main//fujian//virtuoso-opensource.x86_64-generic_glibc25-linux-gnu//virtuoso-opensource/bin/ and executable.

hi, I checked the mode and it is: -rwxrwxrwx+ 1 lans None 15456464 Aug 16 2018 virtuoso-t

But it still reports: /bin/sh: line 1: D://pycharm//KB-BINDER-main//fujian//virtuoso-opensource.x86_64-generic_glibc25-linux-gnu//virtuoso-opensource/bin/virtuoso-t: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error

[ysu1989]

it looks like you are on Windows. probably need to change all paths to Windows format.

[AiRyunn]

@Lanskttee Also virtuoso-t should be a binary executable file, not a shell script. You should be able to run it with ./virtuoso-t. You could try ./virtuoso-t --help to see if there is any output.

it report like this: $ ./virtuoso-t --help bash: ./virtuoso-t: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error

hi! When I changed the slash, it just reports like this: /bin/sh: line 1: D://pycharm//KB-BINDER-main//fujian//virtuoso-opensource.x86_64-generic_glibc25-linux-gnu//virtuoso-opensource//bin//virtuoso-t: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error

And backslash like this: /bin/sh: line 1: D:pycharmKB-BINDER-mainfujianvirtuoso-opensource.x86_64-generic_glibc25-linux-gnuvirtuoso-opensourcebinvirtuoso-t: command not found It disappeared in the output.

BTW, I do on Window, but I use cygwin to run it.

[AiRyunn]

@Lanskttee I'm not familiar with Windows, but this seems to be a problem with virtuoso installation. You can try reinstalling virtuoso, or building virtuoso 7.2.5 from source (https://github.com/openlink/virtuoso-opensource/releases).

we meet the error

Error HTTP/1.1 404 File not found
The requested URL was not found    URI  = '/'

when open http://localhost:3001

[slintday]

我们遇到了错误

Error HTTP/1.1 404 File not found
The requested URL was not found    URI  = '/'

打开时 http://localhost:3001

Is this problem solved? I also encountered the same problem.
