java.net.UnknownHostException: SERVER1

Cause

This is caused by specifying an account without local administrative rights as the Nexidia account during either an upgrade or install of eDP.  This results in the local-properties.xml having an incorrect host specified and the service being unable to communicate with Nexidia.
 

Resolution

There are 2 possible solutions:

Solution 1
Update the local-properties.xml to reflect the correct HOST or IP Address of the eDP server.
1. Edit C:\Program Files\Nexidia\Search Grid 2.0\etc\local-properties.xml
i. Change the value for nexidia.searchgrid.this.public.bindAddress to either the HOST name or IP address of the eDP server
ii. Change the value for nexidia.searchgrid.gateway.public.address to either the HOST name or IP address of the eDP server
2. Save the changes.
3. Start the affected Nexidia service.
4. If it fails, attempt the second solution.

 

Solution 2
Uninstall/reinstall the Nexidia part of eDP.
1. Log in as the IGC account

2. Uninstall Nexidia Search Grid and all language packs.

2. Delete these 3 folders:
C:\Program Files\Nexidia
C:\Program Files (x86)\Nexidia
D:\Nexidia

3. Run InstallClearWell.bat from the eDP 9.5 binaries > Select Modify

4. Select Nexidia Search Grid 2.0.2.2 > Next

5. Specify the domain\EsaApplicationService Account and Password when prompted for Login credentials > Next
NOTE: This account must be the exactly the same as the logon account shown for the EsaApplicationService: Firedaemon account.

6. Allow it to stop services > Next > Finish install.

7. After install complete, set all 3 of the services below to automatic:
EsaNxGridAgent
EsaNxGridBase
EsaNxGridGateway

7. Run this command from D:\CW\V95
audio-svc.bat start

8. Create a new case and test audio processing.

 

Issue/Introduction

After an upgrade or install of eDiscovery Platform (eDP), one or more of the following three Nexidia services will fail to start:
