[Solved] PMS Crashing on Startup

Server Version#: 1.29.1.6276
Player Version#:N/A

Odd, but PMS was running fine last night - left a recording going. Got up today, to see it had crashed. Now, when I try to restart it … it just fires up and exits right away. Nothing in the logs (directory is empty), and of course can’t get to the web interface either (as it’s exiting right away).

I tried a full uninstall and reinstall, no joy.

Any thoughts? Is this a known issue?

Thanks!

OK, found a log file! Seems they have moved … perhaps due to the 64-bit install. Seems I have the same issue as reported a few other places / times?

Is there a fix for this?

Thanks!
