I have a Windows 2012 R2 server and I managed to install the SonarQube 5.4 server as a Windows Service. I also set up a user so the service can actually start without the infamous "It started then stopped" error a lot of people seem to get. Before installing the server as a windows service, I checked that it worked using StartSonar.bat and it did work just fine, so I was confident when I made it into a service.
But when I try to access http://localhost:9000 there is nothing there, and it appears that shortly after starting the service it stops without any message at all. I can't tell if this is because I try to access the site (which gives me ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSEin Google Chrome) or if it just closes down after a short while.
Anyone got any insight?
I'm a beginner. I came across the same issue and fixed it.
Ensure that the database is running.
My log file (located at sonarqube_home_dir/logs/sonar.log) included the following statement.
Caused by: org.h2.jdbc.JdbcSQLException: Wrong user name or password [28000-176]
Since I'm using the default database, I commented below lines
#sonar.jdbc.username=***
#sonar.jdbc.password=***
at sonarqube_home_dir/conf/sonar.properties.
This must happen due to many reasons like connection problems, permission problems so First, you have to see the logs. /sonarqube-7.6/logs$ tailf sonar.log. then you can find the reason. Once I had the same problem so I did like that. my error is something Directory does not exist: lib/jdbc/mysql
org.sonar.process.MessageException: Directory does not exist: lib/jdbc/mysql reason is I uninstall MySQL and remove all folders name contains "MySQL".
just check whether port 9001 already in used, stop it if already in used.
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 an application named “LeafTest” which has Server Edition and Client Edition. The server Service is “Mss.exe” which is running under account “stepup” account which I checked from “services.msc” and system configuration is 2003 server 32bit standard edition with SP2. But yesterday means November 20 it suddenly stopped , I don’t know what is the reason behind it.
When I checked my application logs I can see these errors just before it reported service stopped
The entries in event log are
Following error also i can see somewhere
Event ID ( 8500 ) in Source ( LeafTest)
cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry
information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer.
When I go0gled somewhere its mentioning my application may not be installed properly or registered or I need to work with registry. Can any body tell me what will be the reason behind the service stpped by reading logs which i have posted
A service may halt if there is an unhandled exception. Check that you are handling all exceptions. Also, if the service uses any COM objects I have, in the past, had exceptions that could not be caught in my .NET 2.0 applications.
Earlier today we experienced a YSOD on one of our MVC sites running on IIS on Windows Server 2003.
Usually, these are reported via e-mail using ELMAH (using this setup), but since this was a compilation issue (of some sort), it did not get reported via e-mail.
The specific error was:
"The directory 'App_GlobalResources'
is not allowed because the application
is precompiled."
This is a major problem, since a potential customer could notice the problem before we do. How can we make sure these YSODs are logged, when the exception handler on the site is not called?
It is possible to monitor the event log with VBScript. You could then email this when it occurs:
Here's an example:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/resources/qanda/feb07/hey0226.mspx
and email from vbscript:
http://www.paulsadowski.com/WSH/cdo.htm
You could do this with powershell and/or another .net app on the box also.
If you can, check the event viewer on that machine. This is the logger of last resort on a Windows machine.
I have a windows service that is failing to start, giving an error "Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion".
Running the service in my debugger works fine, and if I double click on the the service .exe on the remote machine a console window pops up and continues to run without problem - I can even see log messages showing me that the program is processing everything the way it should be.
The service had been running fine previously, though this is my first time, personally, trying to deploy it with the most recent changes made to the program. I've evaluated those changes and cant figure out how they might cause this problem, particuarly since everything runs fine when not started as a service.
The StartRoutine() method of the service impelmentation is empty, so should be returning in a "timely fashion".
I've checked the event logs on the computer, and it doesn't give any additional information other than it didn't hear back from the service in the 30 second requisite time frame.
Since it works on my machine, and as a double-clicked executable, how would I go about figuring out why it fails as a service?
Oh, and it's .NET 2.0, so it shouldn't be affected by the 1.1 framework bug that exhibited this symptom (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/839174)
The box is a windows server 2003 R2 machine running SP2.
This is a misleading error. It's probably an unhandled exception.
Empty your OnStart() handler then try this in your constructor...
public MainService()
{
InitializeComponent();
try
{
// All your initialization code goes here.
// For instance, my exception was caused by the lack of registry permissions
;
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
EventLog.WriteEntry("Application", ex.ToString(), EventLogEntryType.Error);
}
}
Now check the EventLog on your system for your Application Error.
Could be a number of things and it might help to get a stack trace on the machine exhibiting the problem. There are a number of ways to do this but the point is that you have to see where this is failing in the code.
You can do this with remote debugging, but a simple thing might be to just log to the event logger, or file log if you have that. Literally, putting "WriteLine("At class::function()") throughout portions of the code to see if you've made it there.
This will at least get you looking in the right direction (which ultimately is the code).
Update:
See Microsoft's How to Debug Windows Services article for details in troubleshooting startup problems using WinDbg.
This related question details nice ways to debug services that are written in .NET.
I agree with Scott, the easiest way to find out what's happening is to put some traces in the start-up code (maybe it doesn't even come to your start-up code).
If this doesn't help, you can post your code here so others can take a look.
perhaps lacking some dependence, try this :
- deregister your service
- register again
If fail at register means that lack an module.
If the StartRoutine is empty, you are probably starting it somewhere else.
IIRC you need to fire off a worker thread, and then return from StartRoutine.
One of the problems which may lead to this error is if windows service which needs to be deployed consists of some error i.e it may be simple authorization error or anything as in my case I have referenced some folders and files for logging which were not existing, but when provided the right path of those file and folders it solved my problem.
I ran through every post on this particular subject and none of the responses solved the problem, so I'm adding this response in case this helps someone else. Admittedly this only applies to a new service, not this specific case.
I was writing a File listening service. As a console app, it worked perfectly. When I ran it as a service, I got the same error as above. What I didn't know (and many of the MSDN articles about services conveniently leave out) is that you need to have your class executed from within ServiceBase.Run( YourClassName());. Otherwise, your app executes and immediately terminates and because it terminated, you get the error above even if no error or exception occurred. Here is a link to an article about this. It actually discusses setting up your app for dual use - Console app and service: Create a combo command line / Windows service app
I had that issue and the source of my problem was config file. I edited it in notepad and notepad added one special character which cause service not to run properly because config file was ruined. I saw that special character in notepadd++ and after delete it, service started to run successfully as previous did.
In my case, the correct .NET framework was not installed on the server that I was installing the Windows service on.
One other reason is If you copy the DLL in 'debug' mode to installation folder this issue will come.What you need to do is Run the project in 'Release' mode copy the DLL or directly form Release folder rather than Debug folder,,and copy that DLL in to installation folder,it will work.You can see the reduction in size of DLL ,it will not contain any debug symbols and like that
