New installation causes errors - nexus-3.13

Hi there.

Without doing much pre-config installation on Nexus 3.13, on a new install, the install won’t start and throwing out errors during the “Apply upgrade” section. Here’s what I’m seeing:

2018-09-04 16:13:46,376+0000 INFO  [FelixStartLevel]  *SYSTEM org.sonatype.nexus.upgrade.internal.UpgradeServiceImpl - Upgrade component from 1.9 to 1.10

Caused by: com.orientechnologies.orient.core.exception.OCommandExecutionException: Class 'REPOSITORY' was not found in database 'config'

Any idea why this is happening?

I’m not sure how this is a new install, since it’s doing an upgrade of the database from a previous version. And it looks like something was wrong with the configuration database in the old version.

Are you trying to set up a new instance or an upgrade? If it’s supposed to be a new install clear out /opt/nexus/sonatype-work/nexus3 (or just rename it) and start the server again. That will create the default configuration.

@rseddon this is a new install. I’m assuming something occurred in the install process and created files in the /opt/nexus/sonatype-work/nexus3 directory then when I went to start nexus again things just didn’t play nice.

I removed the contents from /opt/nexus/sonatype-work/nexus3 and it worked. Thanks.
