Hi,

I do not have such an entry, but to make sure that firewalls are not an issue, 
I have specifically disabled the Windows Firewall and uninstalled the Mcafee 
firewall. 
Virtuoso still runs in +foreground, but not as a service.

Thanks

Marco

Hi Marco,

The DWMAPI.DLL is not significant as I get the same warning in dependany walker 
this DLL being required  by one of the Microsoft DLLs and not virtuoso 
directly, I have the same warning on my machine but the server starts both from 
command line and as a service.

I note the following in the registry 
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy\StandardProfile\AuthorizedApplications\List"
 on my machine:

"C:\\vos510\\bin\\virtuoso-t.exe"="C:\\vos510\\bin\\virtuoso-t.exe:*:Enabled:virtuoso-t"

Do you have a similar entry on your machine, and if so is this set to Enabled 
or Disabled ? I am not sure what this setting does but seems to be possibly 
related to Firewalling, although I have the SP3 firewall enabled on my machine 
and setting this to disabled has not effect on the starting of the service, so 
it may be a read herring. But I am trying to find possible reason as to why the 
server can be started from command line but not as a service.

Best Regards
Hugh Williams

Hi,

I ran dependencywalker on virtuoso-t.exe . The one dependency that it was not 
able to track down was on DWMAPI.DLL  . Is this significant?

On your other points, "%VIRTUOSO_HOME%\bin and %VIRTUOSO_HOME%\lib" were 
already in my path. and on this machine I always run under the same account.
Finally, the Logon tab for the service has "Local system account" selected.

Thanks Hugh.

Marco

Hi Marco,

Your installation looks good to me, so it is strange as to why the service will 
not start now.

Can you please download the Windows dependancy walker program (depends.exe) 
from http://www.dependencywalker.com and use this to load the "virtuoso-t.exe" 
binary and see if their are any dependant DLLs required by the binary that 
cannot be found and thus prevent it from loading.

It might also be an idea to add "%VIRTUOSO_HOME%\bin;%VIRTUOSO_HOME%\lib" to 
the system environment variable such that and Virtuoso dependant files can be 
found, although given that this worked for you previously I would not expect 
this to be the case. One final point, I presume you are creating the service as 
the same user that worked previously, also I presume your service is running as 
the "Local system account" when viewed in the service manager "Logon" tab  for 
the service ?

Hi Hugh,

Below is the information you requested from my installation. Thanks for your 
help,

Marco

A pop-up dialog comes up with the text"The OpenLink Virtuoso Server [virt1] 
service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some services stop 
automatically if they have no work to do, for example, the Performance Logs and 
Alerts service."

c:\javatools\virtuoso\virtuoso-opensource\bin\virtuoso-t.exe -I 
"Virtuoso_virt1" -c 
"C:\javatools\virtuoso\virtuoso-opensource\database\virtuoso.ini"

>>3. Does the Windows system event log report any reason for the service 
>>failing to start ?
After attempting to start the service, I see 2 new entries in the Windows 
System log, both of type "Information" 
At 2:52:43PM: The OpenLink Virtuoso Server [virt1] service was successfully 
sent a start control.
At 2:52:43PM:The OpenLink Virtuoso Server [virt1] service entered the stopped 
state.

>>4. Can you provide a directory listing of the files in the 
>>%VIRTUOSO_HOME%\database directory
 Directory of C:\javatools\virtuoso\virtuoso-opensource\database

04/11/2009  02:51 PM    <DIR>          .

               2 Dir(s)  15,300,403,200 bytes free

5. Can you provide a copy of your virtuoso.log file  in the 
%VIRTUOSO_HOME%\database ?
It is attached. As far as I can tell my attempt to start the service is not 
recorded, only the activity from running virtuoso with the -f or +foreground 
flags.
