Trying to set up MWS for the first time

Team,

I am trying to set up MWS for the first time; this is mainly to manage my broker installs (will expand the use eventually). I have been struggling to even get it up and running right now.

I have set up external database and ran script. Installed with External db. It keeps on failing during start up itself. Is there something I may be missing?

can you provide the error message you see in the log?
also the version of the product?
