bi_server1 is down

Question

Hi , we are using OBIEE version 12.2.1.4.0 version.

I modified instanceconfig.xml file to import too many records into Excel sheet. After that when I restart the services bi_server1 is down. So I restore the instanceconfig.xml with original file. still no luck. even I have verified all the log files but didn't get any clue.

AdminServer is running good. the only problem with bi_server1. I'm getting below error message while starting the BI services.

Thanks in Advance!

If you messed up your instanceconfig then the obips1 log will have the error.

Log files!

Every single piece/component of OBIEE has logs, lot of logs.

If the bi_server1 managed server doesn't start, look at that log file (and no need to take a picture of the file on your screen and post it: the log is long and you have to read through to understand what is going on).
