I have tried to install 1.2.17 on Windows but the install hangs when checking the netxms core service. I get a check mark by Installing service. It works correctly in 1.2.16. Any suggestions? Thank you for your assistance.
Hey if u have Installed 1.2.16 already on ur System , try to turn off the Service NetXMS Core and run the installation again , this should help ^^
The service was off. I even uninstalled 1.2.16 and tried a fresh install of 1.2.17. I made sure none of the services were installed before I attempted the fresh install.
Try to stop the SQL Backend Service too and all what netxms is using ^^

Which OS do you use? There seems to be a problem with Windows Server 2003 and NetXMS 1.2.17.

This is actually a Windows XP machine. I have tried the suggestions and stopping the services but the install still hangs.
I've the same problem under 2003 32Bit.
If I run the netxmsd.exe -D9 there will be no answer. Seems the programm hangs.
Is there any solution?

Hi,
can you please show your netxmsd.conf?
Best regards,

Hi Victor,
yes, sure:
#
# NetXMS Server configuration file
# Created by NetXMS Server configuration wizard at Mon Jan 12 10:57:21 2015
#
LogFile = {syslog}
DBDriver = mysql.ddr
DBServer = localhost
DBName = netxms_db
DBLogin = netxms
DBPassword = netxms
LogFailedSQLQueries = yes
The DBPassword is another. I replaced it for the posting. In real it is an complex password with charcaters, numbers and an $.
Best regards,
Christian
Can you please change LogFile from {syslog} to some file and run netxmsd -D9 from command line? It should show at least some messages.
Best regards,
Victor
Hi Victor,
I set the path LOGFile = C:\netxms.log
This is an existing emty file. Then I had started the netxmsd -D9 from command line.
The file kept emty an in the command line there will no reply. You can't terminate with <ctrl>+<c>.
I had testet to set the path to LOGFile = {c:\netxms.log}, but it dosn't work,too.
Yesterday I had for testing the version installed on windows 7 64Bit - it works fine.
Best regards,
Christian
Hi,
I was able to reproduce problem with netxmsd.exe hang (on Windows Server 2003 32 bit). I'll publish installer with a fix later today.

Hi Victor,
it seems that unfortunally the problem isn´t solved. I tried to install the M2. Before I tried this I had to uninstall the server and the Core Service. The uninstaller wasn´t able to uninstall the core service. So I hat delete the service with the sc delete command. After that I restarted the server. After the restart I run the M2 installer. At the last step the installer wants to start the core - but he wasn´t able to start the service. So I have killed the netxmsd process.
Restarted the server again. Try to start the process manually: Error 1053. Then the same procedure: change the path of the logfile, try to start netxmsd -D9 but there were no file created an no response in the command window.
Any ideas? Thanks.
