Question

Trying to install Oracle NoSQL 18.1.27 on Mac
Setup:
$ java -version
java version "1.8.0_221"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_221-b11)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.221-b11, mixed mode)
$ echo $KVROOT
/Users/sn/Software/oraclenosql/kvroot
$ echo $KVHOME
/Users/sn/Software/oraclenosql/kv-18.1.27
Used this command to install:
java -jar $KVHOME/lib/kvstore.jar makebootconfig -root $KVROOT -port 5000 -host localhost -storagedir $KVHOME/kvdata/ -harange 5010,5030 -storagedirsize "1 gb" -store-security none
Test using jps:
$ jps -m
8866 Jps -m
8826 kvstore.jar start -root /Users/sn/Software/oraclenosql/kvroot
8831 ManagedService -root /Users/sn/Software/oraclenosql/kvroot -class Admin -service BootstrapAdmin.5000 -config config.xml
Trying to start the db
$ java -jar $KVHOME/lib/kvstore.jar ping -host localhost -port 5000
Could not connect to registry at localhost:5000 Unable to connect to the storage node agent at host localhost, port 5000, which may not be running; nested exception is:
java.rmi.ConnectException: Connection refused to host: localhost; nested exception is:
java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused (Connection refused)
Can't find store topology: Could not contact any RepNode at: [localhost:5000]
And when trying to ping:
SNA at hostname: localhost, registry port: 5000 is not registered.
No further information is available
Can't find store topology: Could not contact any RepNode at: [localhost:5000]
Logs show these:

Answer 1

You are not starting the NOSQL you are trying to ping. If you want to start :
$ jps -m ( this will not shows any service if its not started )
$ nohup java -jar $KVHOME/lib/kvstore.jar start -root $KVROOT&
Press enter again to come out of the nohup
$ now run jps -m again it will shows the process running status
Note: if its properly configured then there is no issue, else it will throw errors. Kindly follow Proper document and google the error :)
Thanks,
