HTTP ERROR: 503

[johnv100]

turned subsonic on and off a lot of times, been trying to figure this out for the last few days with no luck,

this is the error

HTTP ERROR: 503
SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE
RequestURI=/

Powered by jetty://



it worked fine a couple months after donating and now, can't figure it out myself, need help

win 7, tried subsonic 4.6 and 4.7. and my ports are open I can see them with canyouseeme.com

When HTTP ERROR: 503 occurs, have a look at the log files in (Program Files)/Subsonic/log/. There's probably some clue there.

[johnv100]

could this be a clue, I am not sure what it mean but maybe some one out here could make sense of this and tell me which way I should go from here.

Looks like a Java issue. I'd try shutting SS down and doing a Java uninstall/reinstall to the latest Java version, then restart Subsonic.

[johnv100]

I will do that and will let you know what happens when I get home, thanks for your help

[johnv100]

stopped Subsonic, uninstalled Java, re installed Java, getting the same exact thing

Well then, it's probably the database on the "fritz". Looks like it's time to do an SS reinstall as well.

You can search around the forums for this error as it is fairly well discussed. I think there may be a file with a .lck extension in one of the subsonic subdirectories that can be deleted that sometimes fixes this issue.

EDIT: C:\Subsonic\db\subsonic.lck

Stop SS, delete the file above then give it a restart to see if that works,

I can't even open SUbsonic on the local machine and get that 503 error.

[GJ51]

Uninstall Subsonic and Java, delete C:\Subsonic then do a clean Java install, then a clean Subsonic install. If that doesn't work, you probably need to reinstall your OS.

Apparently niether the SS service or the database are running.

Follow these instructions:

[mech259]

Clean installs do not work. Apparently, a lot of people are having the same problem! Haven't seen a solution yet.

[mech259]

Subsonic has been working perfectly for over a year, but all of a sudden it quit to this "503" error. This really blows. I have a paid subscription.

[GJ51]

I can understand and sympathize with your frustration, but the reality is that you are missing something very drastically basic if you're saying that you can't even get Subsonic running on the local host. In all honesty, that's almost impossible to do unless you don't have Java installed prior to running the Windows Subsonic installer.

I have so many instances of Subsonic running on my network that I can assure you it runs very well on almost any Windows environment from Win XP to Server 2012 even when installed on VM's.

If you have actually done a clean install of the latest Java and Subsonic and you can't even open the local instance, then your OS is severely corrupted and meeds to be reinstalled.

Setting up external web access, getting port forwarding set properly, and getting all the other nuances just right can be a challeng, but just getting a local instance running is not difficult.

Please understand that I and others are happy to assist anyone who wants to get SS up and running, but when you only claim that SS doesn't work properly, without responding in a staightforward way that you've made any attempt to follow the advice already suggested, it doesn't get you any closer to fixing the problem. I've installed Subsonic on Windows several hundred times and assisted many other users get their systems running, but if you don't listen to suggestions or give specific feedback detailing what is happening on your end no one can help you.

You seem to be implying that you've uninstalled Java and Subsonic and reattempted a clean install of both according to the guidelines in the link I've posted to the Tutorial. Is that correct? Are you saying that after a fresh Java and SS install on Windows you get no green tray icon on the task bar that lets you right-click and "Open Subsonic in Browser". That's the first step - the one that almost EVERYONE gets to. Are you really saying that you can't get that far?

[johnv100]

I have also donated, and if you need to know about mine situation, yes my task icon turns green and when it does I click on it and click on the internal http address and when the browser opens that is when I get the http:// 503 error, in the browser.

[mech259]

I finally fixed mine. There was an extra subdirectory on my C drive that had Subsonic info in it that was getting confused with the operating directory. When I deleted that it started working. (Windows 7, go figure). Thanks for the reply.
