i've upgraded test (onebox) environment to Platform update 32 and i cannot start Microsoft Dynamics 365 Unified Operations: Batch Management Service, there is a warning message that says:
In event viewer i see the following:
What i've tried so far:
1) Synchronized and built application from Visual Studio - fine
2) Checked if system is in maintenance mode - it is not
3) Tried to play with "Log on" tab of the service (on behalf of which user service is running) - didn't help
4) Checked if event log is full, cleared, extended allowed space for log twice and let it overwrite itself if it's full - didn't help
P.S. I suggest there is something with database (maybe any issue is enabled/disabled) but i cannot understand which one exactly (cannot find ScaleUnitFeature from event log anywhere).
I cannot restore/delete/replace database because it's important to keep all the data/set up on it

I am using WebConnector version -2.1.0.30 with QuickBooks 2015 Enterprise.
WebConnector was working fine but all of a sudden when I run WebConnector and click on "Update Selected" button then it came up with this error (Note: by that time no one was logged on to QuickBooks).
Then as a quick fix I have deleted that QWC file and added a New one, that works fine.
Can any one please come up with a better solution and the reason behind this error.
Thanks in advance.
Chances are you're running QuickBooks on a shared Windows Server, or in a hosted scenario with someone like Right Networks, Intuit Cloud, Cloud9, etc.
If so, this error means that Windows Server auto-logged-out some user and closed QuickBooks for them, but is still holding the file lock on the QuickBooks company file. Windows will automatically release the file lock after a short amount of time (usually 30 minutes to an hour).
There is no "fix" outside of waiting for a while, and then trying again.
I have been working on restoring a build server (tfs 2012) from a backup and all manner of things got messed up (the tfsservice account password had been altered and I had to go to every service and app pool on the box and update it). Once sql was backup I was able to update the password via the TFS admin console app. Then I was able to re-register the build service and add a controller and a build agent. It starts briefly and shows green for a few seconds before stopping and a "details ..." button appears next to the Build Service. If I click the details button I see the following
"Please contact your administrator. There was an error contacting the server. Technical information (for administrator): HTTP code 500: System.ServiceModel.ServiceActivationException"
I have checked the http bindings in iis for the tfs site and there is only the one "*:8080"
I tried hardcoding it to the ip on the box and I still get the same error. If I go to one of the client machines and try and queue a build it shows the build server as being offline.
I have also checked for multiple host headers and the memory utilization which are the most common responses to this particular issue. Neither of them seem to be the cause or the solution.
Any ideas or suggestions are welcome I have run out of ideas to try here. Thanks in advance for any help you have to offer.
EDIT -- also found this in the log: Build machine MyMachine lost connectivity to message queue tfsmq://buildservicehost-25/.
I am building a Windows service app using Delphi , RAD Studio 10
Upon my investigation I came across with a Eset Windows service which wonderfully was protecting itself from being Stopped or terminated.
On stopping the service using (windows service manager) or (end process button)
or (end task button) following error messages occurs :
The operation couldn't be completed.
access denied.
same thing is true with its registry keys . The error message is :
Can not delete info: Error while deleting key
I tested Administrator access and system access. in both cases i was not successful.
I want to build such self-defense mechanism for my own application protecting my service and registry key.
Any idea would be helpful.
Thank you for your time.
update :
I want to know how i can do it in Delphi ... that's why it is tagged Delphi
and If someone wants to stop the service or uninstall it ....
he or she can just use my own applications UI to do it.
edit 2 :
As Remko mentioned I thnk DACL and ACL is better way to handle it , I couldn't find any good reference for it. Is there any good reference for Delphi language?
Protecting from SCM stop is very easy. Assuming you are using TService, you can handle the TService.OnStop event and set its Stopped parameter to False. And assign an error code to the TService.ErrCode or TService.Win32ErrCode property.
Unless you are writing security software, you really should not protect from TaskManager termination. Admins should be allowed to kill misbehaving processes. That being said, you can use SetSecurityInfo() to assign a DACL to your service process that grants/denies access to particular users and/or groups as needed.
You can also use ChangeServiceConfig2() to configure your service's "failure actions" to restart the service if it terminates unexpectedly.
To protect your Registry key, you can use the lpSecurityAttributes parameter of RegCreateKeyEx(), or use the RegSetKeySecurity() function, to assign a SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR to your key that contains a DACL that grants/denies access to particular users and/or groups as needed.
I have a Windows service written in VB.NET 2.0 which connects to an IBM AS/400 server. Queries work fine, but when I try to do something like deleting a spool file, I get errors. For example:
CPYSPLF FILE(PO630A) TOFILE(MPLCDATPAR/PO630APF) JOB(083064/ARUSER/POASYNCMON) SPLNBR(80) MBROPT(*REPLACE)
Running this command with ExecuteNonQuery yields:
CPF3342 - Job not found 083064/ARUSER/POASYNCMON
However, if I run that same command locally in AS/400, it works just fine. We already checked permissions. What else could be causing the command to fail this way? How can I get more information about the error, or go about troubleshooting this?
EDIT: This problem (and a lot of other ones) appeared when we migrated our server (where the .NET service runs) from Windows Server 2003 to Windows Server 2008.
How can I get more information about the error, or go about troubleshooting this?
The first thing is to verify that the IBM AS/400 server [what OS Version Release and Modification level, Technical Refresh (TR) level (if instead IBM i), Cumulative PTF level were all omitted.?.?] used for the connection is the same server used to perform the command-line invocation; i.e. on the server where the command-line invocation will be made to verify the command is functional, find the active server job in which the CPF3342 is still visible in the log.
The second thing to do is to get the spooled joblog showing the full details of the CPF3342 [and possibly any preceding message(s) that might be related]. If for example the message is not actually that message or is not sent by the expected program QSPCPYF, then immediately the direction of investigation probably would change. What is shown is apparently what is presented at the client, not what came from the server joblog; the USEnglish formatting I believe is "Job &5/&4/&3 not found." for which the formatting "CPF3342 - Job not found &5/&4/&3" is suspect.
To ensure the most appropriate comparison to the request made from the client:
• the local user that is signed-on to perform the same request should be the same user as the Current User of the active job found to be servicing the client request
• the local user should establish the same System Library List as the active job found to be servicing the client request
If such an incident recurs or even if the same incident persists, then verify the once again the re-create is still possible using the same interface [i.e. the condition\failure persists] and again verify the command-line request is successful [i.e. the circumvention is confirmed, that the same request is possible to be performed at the command-line]; and according to my earlier comment, first ensuring the same server by finding the active job that logs the CPF3342. Immediately afterward:
• Collect a job trace for the Copy Spooled File (CPYSPLF) request; for the failing case, review for any exception\interrupt conditions [with or without a message as accompanying trace data] that precede the program flow for the issuance of the msg CPF3342.
• Review the audit log for any T-AF or anything odd\unexpected at very close to the time of the failing request; expansive auditing should have been established since before the connection to the server.
• Contrast those data collections of the failing case with the same data taken from the successful processing.
Although the symptom [as lightly described, without the full joblog] the possibility of command-exits seems remote, the trace would reveal if the command in either scenario were intercepted by the Command Exit points; these can be reviewed separately [rather than looking in the trace] for any Exit Program, using the Work With Registration Information (WRKREGINF) to review any QIBM_QCA* entries in the repository for what exit programs might impact the CL Command request. But IIRC the trace-data shows which command was invoked, so the trace would also reveal if the unqualified command requests resolved to different *CMD objects.
I am thinking the modified dlls will create a log file some where in the remote system so I can open it later after load test but all I found was a log file in $(SystemRoot)\Temp\EQATECProfilerLogs saying nothing other than app started. Do I need to install EQATEC profiler on the remote server?
Thanks
This scenario is adressed in this EQATEC forum thread:
A profiled app needs to be told when we want it to produce its profiling report. For plain apps this is simple and has therefore been automated: when Main exits. But your web-service has no similar "exit point" - it just keeps on running until you kill it.
Therefore you have to explicitly/manually tell the profiled web-service to take a snapshot. The easiest way is to simply run the profiler on the same machine as the web-service is running on: when the web-service is starting up it will automatically connect to the profiler and you can then run your tests and control/dump timing info at will using the "take snapshot" and "clear counters"-buttons.
Alternatively, you can make a reference to the supplied runtime-module from within your code and make explicit calls to the API (TakeSnapshot etc) precisely where you want in your code. The runtime-modules reside in C:\Program Files\EQATEC\EQATECProfiler\RuntimeDLL.
