2019/03/13 09:50:34 | JVM exited while loading the application.
2019/03/13 09:50:35 | There were 5 failed launches in a row, each lasting less than 300 seconds. Giving up.
2019/03/13 09:50:35 | There may be a configuration problem: please check the logs.
checked the JAVA_HOME variable, and conf file setting, did not find errors. where the main class should be? or something else missing here?
Please help!

Hi Jerry!
I'm having the exact same error logs for now in my instance but in a RHEL setup.
I'm wondering if you ever found a solution for it?
My issue happens after the upgrade process for the MID server.
Thanks!
Simon

I got my MID server back to a running state.
This KB article helped me to identify the root cause and I simply implemented the mentioned workaround and it works fine now!
