Liferay stopped at database shutdown caused a crash - crash

Question

I was stopping the Liferay portal, but few seconds after, I stopped the database (db2 quiesce, that means, that the connections are closed) and apparently, Liferay did not stopped correctly its execution.
After that, I restarted the database and liferay, but the portal does not work now. It shows this message in the browser:
HTTP Status 500 -

After looking in the logs, I found the following messages (they are edited):

Now, I see that it is almost impossible to start the current Liferay installation. However, I have the database (I made a full backup), and the lucene's data directory. How can I recreate a Liferay installation with these two things? I would like to recover some of this data in a new installation, but I do not how.

Answer 1

This is not the best solution, but I installed Liferay with a new database. Once it was configured, I change the database configuration in order to use the other one.
Probably, it was a problem with the ROOT deployment, but this is very weird.
I could recover all the data from the Lucene and the database.

Answer 2

The database is still quiesced and the Liferay user doesn't have the QUIESCE_CONNECT privilege.
Unquiesce the database and restart Liferay.
Using DB2 instance owner (if you're on Windows, any administrator):
db2 connect to DBNAME
db2 unquiesce database
db2 connect reset
