CCMDB_INSTALL_LOCATION could not be loaded from the database. Cannot load remainder of properties.
a. There is no property value in the database
b. The maximo.properties file is not encrypted
Diagnosing the problem
This can be applied for 7.1.1.6 and 7.1.1.7 if this problem occurs
a. There is no property value in the database
To update the property value in the database
1. Locate the V7110_props.xml on maximo\tools\maximo\en\script
2. Copy this file and rename to V711x_props.xml according to the version that you are running for an example if you are running 7.1.1.4 then file should be V7114_props.xml
3. In the XML file delete everything except the CCMDB.InstallLocation property as shown below.

4. Save this file and rename it to V711x_props.dbc
5. Shut down the MXServer and open a command line window and run updatedb.bat from the
\maximo\tools\maximo\ directory.
b.
Encrypt the maximo.properties file if it is not encrypted.
The properties reside in the <Maximo root> \applications\Maximo\properties folder.
To encrypt properties:
1. Use a text editor to modify maximo.properties and save.
mxe.encrypted=true
2. Open a command shell and go to <Maximo root> \tools\maximo folder.
3. Type encryptproperties to run the batch file. The old files are renamed with an *_orig extension:
maximo.properties_orig
Encrypting the property, it saves the unencrypted original. For
security purposes, store the unencrypted original somewhere outside the system file structure.
4. Confirm that the new file contains an encryption string at the end.
