AEM is not starting

I started the AEM author instance by the start.bat ( crx-quickstart > bin > start.bat ), there the server is showing the startup complete but when i am hitting on link localhost:4502 it is showing connection refused ??

In your office network if you are using a proxy network, this issue can happen in chrome . We have faced this issue due to the proxy settings in chrome browser. Could you check the below

If you are using Chrome. Can you go to settings --> Change proxy settings --> if the bypass proxy is unchecked , please check it....

Since I dont have proxy settings, below image is only for demonstration

Let me know if this worked

Thanks

Hi,

please check your error.log for the string "4502". Looks like your AEM instance is not bound to this port (for whatever reason). Can you check "http://127.0.0.1:4502/" as well (just to make sure, that your local Windows isn't broken)?

kind regards,
Jörg

Add following line in your hosts file (location ....\Windows\System32\drivers\etc)

127.0.0.1       localhost

I am not even able to hit the login page of AEM, and i am not able to find anything suspicious in error.log,

Later i realized that i am able to work in explorer but not in chrome so i got ip of my system and from that i accessed AEM

(<ip address>:4502) but not when i hit localhost:4502, Why so?

Are you able to view bundles from felix console  http://localhost:4502/system/console/bundles  ? Any issues from  Error.log ?

Hi,

Are you able to open crxde[http://localhost:4502/crx/de/index.jsp ] or explorer or system console[http://localhost:4502/system/console/configMgr ].

Also, can you check for anything suspicious in error/startup log file.
