Facing Error: *cannot start the server 'servername' *

When trying to start the workflow, I am getting the above error. I have configured server settings properly and it resolved as well..

All the informatica services are running fine. what could be the problem.

which version are you running ?? there could be multiple reasons for this error message, but most probably -

your informatica server configuration is not correct, and therefore the attempt to start the server fails. As a result, when a workflow tried to execute, the attempt to connect to a running server instance fails.

I doubt if all the infa services are running fine.. if actually so, then I would reconfigure my client connection and see if you are actually hitting the right domain/service combination.

I am trying to install Informatica 8.6 server on my Windows 7 Home Edition Laptop with Oracle 11g. I am getting error message:

"Cannot start Informatica services" EXITCODE: S.

There is a long description which says:

"Use the error below and catalina.out and node.log in the server/tomcat/logs directory on the the current machine to get more information." .

When I checked catalina.out, the file is empty and node.log didn't exist in server/tomcat/logs.

Could you please let me know how to get rid of this error if have happened to come across and resolved that or know how to resolve the error?
