Broken Installation - Reinstall Not Working

Russell2 · August 9, 2016, 3:39pm

Today I came to the office to face a broken Openfire installation. I uninstalled Openfire, deleted the Openfire directory, and reinstalled Openfire 4.0.2. I completed the setup routine but then I could not log into the admin console (keeps telling me the username and/or pw is incorrect). I repeated the uninstall / delete / reinistall process and verified the username and pw but it still will not let me log in. And the Openfire server does not run.

Below is what is shown when I attempt to start the Openfire service:

log4j:ERROR setFile(null,true) call failed.
