The PEGA0009 alert is triggered when the PegaRULES engine attempted to start, but failed.

Reasons for the alert

For various reasons, the engine might fail to initialize during startup, including:

• The system could not connect to the database.
• The libraries did not compile.
• Required resources are missing.

Check the Pega log file to get details about the cause of the problem. The application server logs might also provide details about system startup failure.
