Eror starting VCO server - VRA 6.1

Hello.

After working fine for a few months, our VRA 6.1 appliance running VCO server is not starting up.

The vco server (started with 'service vco-server start') runs for sometime and fails.

The server.log shows this message

2015-02-24 11:48:59.485+0530 [localhost-startStop-1] ERROR {} [ServerChecker] **************************************************************************************

2015-02-24 11:48:59.485+0530 [localhost-startStop-1] ERROR {} [ServerChecker] **  An essential server component is missing or invalid, the server will be shutdown

2015-02-24 11:48:59.485+0530 [localhost-startStop-1] ERROR {} [ServerChecker] **************************************************************************************

The exception trace starts like this

2015-02-24 11:48:59.085+0530 [localhost-startStop-1] WARN  {} [LicenseCheckerService] Unable to load allowed methods (Reason : interface com.vmware.o11n.licensing.LicenseAttributes is not visible from class loader)

The license is valid.

Searching for the exception in forums told me to restore the 'INSTALL/app-server/data directory

But the data directory only contains hornetq directory. No hsqldb files. Has this changed with VRA 6.1?

What is the solution for this problem? Please help. Thanks

Can you log to configuration page and see everything is green? https//<vco ip>:8283/. Configurator service won't running be default start the service.(service vco-configurator start)

It was showing red dot in Licensing.

Deleting the entry and adding back vcenter server license seem to fix the problem. Thanks for the suggestion
