The following errors were detected One or more system listeners failed. These are set in the systemListeners.xml.

Please see the server console for more details on each error detected.

Answer 1

Did you run the quartz scripts which setup the quartz db? they are provided in the solution repository.

Otherwise pastebin the full log, it's impossible to tell without more info. suspect somewhere you'll either have a authentication issue, or no mysql driver in your classpath.

Answer 2

I also received the error message

PentahoSystem.ERROR_0014 – Error while trying to execute startup sequence for org.pentaho.platform.scheduler.QuartzSystemListener

when trying to bring up the service. I found this solution after searching a few different threads:

Remove commented out portion of these properties (or copy and paste from here, and modify as necessary) in quartz.properties (located in pentaho-solutions/system/quartz ):

org.quartz.dataSource.quartz.driver = com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
org.quartz.dataSource.quartz.URL = jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/quartz
org.quartz.dataSource.quartz.user = pentaho_user
org.quartz.dataSource.quartz.password = password
org.quartz.dataSource.quartz.maxConnections = 5
org.quartz.dataSource.quartz.validationQuery= select 1

Also comment out the JNDI Url:

#org.quartz.dataSource.myDS.jndiURL = Quartz
