BEA-141297 - Could not get the server file lock


The error means that there is a file lock that could not be released, as the server was previously not shut down correctly.

In this case you must follow the next steps:

  • Navigate to tmp folder in your $DOMAIN_HOME directory. (for example: C:\Oracle\Middleware\Oracle_Home\user_projects\domains\mydomain\servers\AdminServer\tmp)
  • Delete the lock file for the server instance, AdminServer.lok
  • Check if there are any java.exe processes are running, which should not be there. If there are any, they would have to be killed.
  • Restart your server
