Need help getting local J2EE engine to run

Question

Hello,
I have installed Netweaver Developer Workplace with MaxDB and a local J2EE engine.
I cannot figure out what all I need to do in order to have all the proper pieces of J2EE engine running locally so I can deply and run some simple servlets/JSPs locally.
I have gone into Administrative Tools|Services and made sure that SAPJ2E_00 and SAPJ2E_01 are both set to Automatic.
Even after doing that and rebooting I still don't see the J2E node as green in the management console. So I rightclick on it and choose start.
When I do that, a bunch of dos(console) windows open and run some commands and after awhile one of the nodes under J2E on management console shows up as green but the other one never does.
Is there some documentation somewhere that shows how to do this locally? I don't want to do it on a server yet.
Thanks in advance for any help.
David

Siddesh,
Thanks for your reply. That was a helpful link in that it got me pointed in the right direction. I found a document that told me to look in the dev_jcontrol file.
There I found the following...
[Thr 2904] Tue Apr 12 09:42:30 2005
[Thr 2904] *** ERROR => invalid return code of process [bootstrap] (exitcode=66) [jstartxx.c   1433]
[Thr 2904] JControlExecuteBootstrap: error executing bootstrap node [bootstrap] (rc=66)
[Thr 2904] JControlCloseProgram: started (exitcode = 66)
[Thr 2904] JControlCloseProgram: good bye... (exitcode=66)
So I did a search in this forum for "exitcode = 66" and found a couple of posts. This one seems to be the most like what I'm experiencing
J2EE engine stopped running / WAS 6.40
Halfway thru that post it mentions checking the jvm_bootstrap.out file for errors. I did and it had the following in it:

[Bootstrap module]> Problem occured while performing synchronization.
Not quite sure what to do. Where do I check the database properties and how do I know which are wrong?
Also, in a subsequent post of that same thread it mentions running the following command in a command window:
dbmcli db_enum
I searched the sap install directory (c:usr) and its subdirectories for a file starting with dbmcli and couldn't find one. Is that installed automatically when you install NDS Workplace?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
David.
