Homegroup Listener Service Will Not Start

The Homegroup Listener Service on one of my machines will not start.  It
shows an error code of  -2147467262  (0x80004002).  Does anyone know what
might be causing this?

Hi,
Please try the following steps to troubleshoot the issue.
1. Leave HomeGroup completely
a. Click the Start Button, type "cmd" (without quotation marks), in the search result list, right click on Cmd.exe and select Run as administrator.
Note: If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type your password, or click Continue.
b. In the popup window, type the following commands and press Enter one by one:
Net stop p2pimsvc
c. Access t he following folder and clear all files inside:
C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Roaming\PeerNetworking
d. Click the Start Button, type "cmd" (without quotation marks), in the search result list, right click on Cmd.exe and select Run as administrator.
Net start p2pimsvc
After that, please check whether the service can be started or not. If not, please proceed to the next steps.
2. Verify the Server service and assure the status is started.
3. Replace the system file and registry key. Please copy the following files on another Windows 7 machine which HomeGroup Listener service can start normally and import them to the problematic one.
a. Locate the ListSvc.dll file under the folder C:\Windows\System32. Remove the old one and paste the new one.
b. Navigate the following registry key on another Windows 7 machine and export it. Then, please copy and import it on the problematic machine.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\HomeGroupListener
If the issue persists after performing above suggestions, I suggest you run System File Checker (SFC) to verify whether any system file is corrupted.
Thanks,
Novak

  • Windows listener service will not start automatically

    I just installed 11.2.0.3 Standard Edition One and when I reboot the server, the listener service is not started. The service is set to start Automatically. I have to login, open services and then push start.
    The oraceServiceSId does start automatically,
    The listerner service does not start automatically,
    The dbconsole service does not start automatically,
    The processManger1 service (from middleware) does not start automatically
    This is Windows 7 64 bit.
    Any ideas?

    I found where the services logs are recorded in the event viewer. Funny thing just happened, I was just about to do another reboot so I could check the logs when I noticed there were window updates in q.
    So after running the updates, the os requested to reboot . For the first time, the services started automatically.
    These are the updates which fixes the probem:
    Security Update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB2639417)
    Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 9 for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB2618444)
    Security Update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB2620712)

  • Vista SP1 - CF Service will not start

    Running Vista Business. Life was good, I was productive! (CF 8 btw).
    After installing Vista SP1, CF service will not start. Digging a little deeper, turns out JRUN can't fire off "coldfusion", one of the servers listed. Here is the error:
    04/06 11:49:20 error Failed to create new connection
    java.net.SocketException: select failed

    at jrun.jms.core.kernel.mipc.MultiplexConnectionServer.run(MultiplexConnectionServer.java:15 4)
    Some digging turned up the possiblity that the jndi.properties file isn't being read. Changed permissions on it to let everyone in. Heck, you guys can probably get at it right now form where you are its so open!
    More digging, turns out Windows Firewall like to block port 2930, which is apparently used for internal communication with jndi settings or some such. Opened that up. Found evidence of further internal communication on port 900, opened that up to.
    Found this very useful and a bit scary info about missing DLLs and so forth:
    http://www.communitymx.com/content/article.cfm?page=6&cid=224AA
    Found reference to the updated Vista TCP/IP stack being a culprit in some cases, which often seemed to come down to, get this, a new host file entry for localhost: ::1  localhost. Commented that out, still no joy.
    Tried reinstalling. Still no go.
    Pretty much exhausted all possibilities I was able to think of or find info about.
    Any ideas or similar experiences? Or, failing that, the address of a tall building to jump off? Thanks!

    Read the manual?!?! No way, never! That would be like... stopping at a gas station to ask for directions!
    But seriously, I did poke around there a bit. I do tend to forget that there is more to there is more there than the language reference.
    Never been stuck like this though. Probably done over 100 installs dating back to CF4 on just about all windows flavors but have never had to dig in to the guts of the underlying Java like this.
    Thinking it has to be something unique to this machine; I have done other Vista installs of CF8 with only minimal issues (typically having to set the service to run under an account that has permissions, maybe even set jrun.exe and jrunsvc.exe to execute under an admin account, but thats about it). Unfortunately, partially because of the environment we operate in, a fresh workstation install is a good day and half to two day ordeal.
    Help me Obi Wan, you're my only hope!

  • CF8 Application Server Service Will NOT Start

    I ran into this error:
         java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space
    and after researching it it seemed that I should up the max heap size on the Java/JVM page, so I increased my max heap size to 1044MB from 512, via the CF Administrator, I also added maxPermSize= 256m.  Then I restarted the server, but the Application Server service will not start.
    I opened home/runtim/bin/jvm.config and set the heap size to 1024, restart, service still wont start.
    Set the max heap size to 512 and removed maxPermSize, restarted server, service still won't start.
    Set the entire java.args equal to: -server -Xmx256m -Dsun.io.useCanonCaches=false -xx:MaxPermsize=128m -XX:+UseParallelGC -Dcoldfusion.rootDir={application.home}/../ -Dcoldfusion.libPath={application.home}/../lib -Dcoldfusion.classPath={application.home}/../lib/updates,{application.home}/../lib,{appli cation.home}/../gateway/lib/,{application.home}/../wwwroot/WEB-INF/flex/jars,{application. home}/../wwwroot/WEB-INF/cfform/jars
    Restarted, still the services will not start.
    Does anyone have any ideas?
    The error I get when trying to start the services is:
    Windows could not start the ColdFusion 8 Application Server on Local Computer.  For more information, review the System Even Log.  If this is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vendor, and refore to service-specific error code 2.
    Thanks!

    Once you have ColdFusion running again this will bring you back to your initial problem:
    java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space
    Suggest take a copy of your working JVM.CONFIG (so you have a backup) then add some debugging to the JVM Arguments eg:
    # Arguments to VM
    java.args=-server  -Xmx512m -Dsun.io.useCanonCaches=false -XX:MaxPermSize=192m -XX:+UseParallelGC -XX:+PrintGCDetails -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps -XX:+PrintHeapAtGC -verbose:gc -Xloggc:cfjvmGC.log -Dcoldfusion.rootDir={application.home}/../ -Dcoldfusion.libPath={application.home}/../lib -Dcoldfusion.classPath={application.home}/../lib/updates,{application.home}/../lib,{appli cation.home}/../gateway/lib/,{application.home}/../wwwroot/WEB-INF/flex/jars,{application. home}/../wwwroot/WEB-INF/cfform/jars
    Once ColdFusion is restarted again a log file will be created called \ColdFusion8\runtime\bin\cfjvmgc.log. Open the log file and you will be able to see how the New, Tenure and Permanent memory spaces are working. Given you now know which buffer is filling (excluding New made up of Eden and a couple Survivor spaces - because those fill and empty all the time) you can make adjustments to JVM.CONFIG knowing which value you intend to alter. Likely you want to alter either Xmx or MaxPermSize. When you think the Java heap space is resolved turn logging off by removing the bolded details.
    HTH, Carl.

  • SBS Manager Service will not start

    I seem to have a bit of a problem the SBS manager service will not start at all. I have tried rebuilding the SBS Monitoring database and this did not help. This started happening a few months after a SBS 2008 to SBS 2011 migration, does anyone have any ideas
    as I no longer get reporting or alerts.
    At first I thought it might have had something to do with permissions but not too sure how to check and what to check apart from the common things, DB permissions, permissions on folders etc but I may have missed something?

    Hi,
    Regarding the current issue, since you have tried to rebuild the SBS monitoring database without any help, I suggest we could try to refer to the following article this time to see if it works.
    FAQ: SBS 2011. The Windows SBS Manager service terminated unexpectedly

  • Coldfusion 8 service will not start.  Server log is ending with "Starting license..." (Emergency)

    Our server has gone down and the Coldfusion 8 service will not start.  There is no information in any of the logs for anything today since its gone down.  Ive checked the root logs directory as well as the runtime logs directory.
    The server.log is the only file being updated and it shows "Starting logging..." and then "Starting license..." and hangs.  The service does not start and the log gets nothing more after this point.  Memory continues to go up slowly, we've increased the start timeout tremendously with no effect.  There is little to no CPU usage.
    Our server is licensed and has never had this problem before.  It is the standard version.
    Our server is completely down and we are losing clients.  From what we can tell a windows update occurred, which we have since removed in case it was the issue, and when the server restarted CF did not come back.  We have been working on this for hours with no results.
    Please help and let me know anything you may need which will help diagnose our issue.
    Thanks

    So that others who see this know the solution.
    I started Coldfusion from the command line: c:\Coldfusion8\runtime\bin\jrun -start coldfusion.  This brought up all the commands as it worked through them.  From that we found that CF was looking for license.properties in the C:\Coldfusion8\runtime\lib folder.  We found a copy in the C:\Coldfusion8\lib folder.  For now we've left it running under my account and then after hours are going to try and see if the service will run now that we've copied that properties file to the other direcory.
    Probably simple to everyone on here but was new and odd to us.  Wanted to put what we found out here in case it happens to anyone else.

  • SySAM service will not start

    I've installed the SySAM software into the folder C:\Sybase.
    Per instructions I copied the license I was given to the licenses folder in C:\Sybase\SySAM\SYSAM-2_0. I instructed the license manager to return the existing standalone license and regenerate as a served license. I trust she did so.
    Now the service will not start. I've tried "net start sysam", "sysam start" , and rebooting the machine. I get "service did not respond in a timely fashion error".
    What can I do?

    Russell,
    If the license that you moved to the license folder has incorrect information, than the sysam server will not start.    Verify that the license file contains  the hostid and hostname of the machine that is running the Sysam server.  If the hostid or hostname is not right, the sysam server will not start. 
    Also the license file needs to be a served license.   Verify that you see a line in the file with:  USE_SERVER
    If you don't see that in the license file, than the license is a unserved license.
    Another reason why the sysam server will not start is if there is a SYSAMLicenseServer.lic file in the licenses folder.    If there is, remove it.
    Try starting the sysam server from the Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services -> Sysam
    Thanks,

  • After Upgrade, Windows Service will not start automaticly

    I just upgraded from 10.2 to 10.4. When I did the Windows File Service, will not start automaticly. I can start it manually, after a reboot. Any idea on how to fix this?

    I am having the same problem on a clean install of Server 10.4.10, AFP & Web starts automatically on restart, but not Windows Service. This is the first time I have run into this, it starts fine on all other servers I administer. Then entry in /etc/hostconfig for SMBSERVER is set to "-YES-", there is no errors or messages of any kind in the console or system log, it just won't start.
    This complicated with the problem I am having on the same server where I cannot connect via ARD after reboot without someone there physically plugging a monitor into the video port first (another open post I have - http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=5850246#5850246 ). So, doing maintenance at off-hours is almost unworkable.
