Subject:  Re: Foxweb already started...
When i run the foxweb, it does not prompt to elevate the permission.
 
Though, i tried "right-clicking" and selecting "Run As Administrator"
 
I use the same account that i installed foxweb originally with, which is the Administrator account.
 
and same thing happen.  Still says "Start" even though, it is already started.
 
btw, this is FoxWeb 4.5

The FoxWeb Control Center uses semaphores to determine if the service is running. The only explanation I can provide for not being able to detect the run status correctly is permissions, or some other security configuration that is affecting this on your Windows 2008 server. I realize that you have tried using the Administrator account, but I don't see how anything else could be the culprit. This particular functionality is extremely simple (about 8 lines of code) and has not changed in many years.
 
Can you confirm that the FoxWeb Control Center causes the User Account Control (UAC) dialog to pop up when being started? This particular functionality does not need elevated permissions, but I'm just trying to eliminate all possibilities.
 
On the meantime, you should still be able to manage the service using the regular Windows Services dialog.

 On one of our server, we are running 2008 R2, foxweb is working great.
 
however, when i open the foxweb control panel, it says "Start" even though it is started.
 
it is running as service. Even when i right-click on foxweb control and say "run as admin"
 
however on our other server 2012, its working like it should.  and that's set as service as well.
 
 
I am remoting into the server (both of them actually) using RDP
 
 
how can that be fixed.
 
ps: foxweb 4.5 on both (2008 r2 and 2012)
VFP9 SP2 on both

everythig check under configuration except: Full Paths in URLs and Keep PRG (both are not checked)

 

I am curious if i have to be logged in using the same username as the one that installed it (Administrator) vs my admin normal username.

 

the server 2012 i am logging in as Administrator, where the other one is my regular username with "Admin powers"
