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.

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.

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.

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 ?

Thanks for your help, Marco >>1.

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." >>2.

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 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. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: High Quality Requirements in a Collaborative Environment.
