Server Service Problem

#1

Post by alhaunts » Wed Oct 12, 2022 2:12 pm

Yesterday one of my systems crashed. Bad power supply. Replaced it and all seems back to normal, EXCEPT:

When I try to access the Server Service Log, I now get "ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED". Tried manually starting the EPG123 Server Service fron the Config Utility but no joy. Not getting program images in the guide either. My other WMC machine is still working perfectly. Suggestions anyone?

EPG123 1.7.1.12
Windows 7 Pro x64

Some more information:

Windows Task Manager shows the "EPG123Server" service is stopped. Trying to start it manually gives an "Access is denied" error

Not sure why it would give you an "Access is denied". It was working before your PS failure right?

Seems like it was file corruption from the flaky power supply. Just restored a disk image from a couple of days ago and all is golden.
