Win32 : Win Service (Starting.. but never starts)

Post by z3r0c001 »

The service wircd doesnt wanna start. The service.log shows

Code: Select all

* Loading IRCd configuration ..
* Configuration loaded without any problems ..
The unrealircd.conf also contains all required entries. (as a minimal).

The OS is Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 with all necessary updates.

Help!

Need any other info, let me know.. Would love to get this up as soon as i can ;-)

Did your steps fix this issue?

Just wondering before I do this, we have some specific services also running on this box I'd rather not reboot unless required.

Please let me know if that was what you did to fix.
Thanks

Did you downloaded a pre-compiled UnrealIRCD or sources?

As of current, I uninstalled, rebooted, reinstalled Win32 - SSL 3.2.4 (from download link BERLIN-HTTP)

Install I chose to install to D:\Program Files\UnrealIRCd324SSL\

Used the console login administrator accnt.

Anyone willing to help me get this running on my box, would be helpful. --- please let me know.

Change in status, Ive installed 324 (non-SSL win32 compiled) version.

It worked, but SSL didnt.

Perhaps something w/the crypto.... But seems I set it up similiar.

I'd try taking it out of service mode and seeing if that helps.

Just wondering - are you trying to encrypt the SSL certificate? You can't do that when running UnrealIRCd as a Windows service. There's a FAQ entry about this somewhere.

Well I used the default SSL encryption options, so im thinking when i put the key in , that was it... Thanks for that info tho, it does look like we got the server operating without the SSL which is fine for our purposes...

Thanks!
