Server No Longer Starts

[elziko]

I have been using LMS on my WIndows 10 box for several years without any problem and I'm currently running v7.9.1. However, after an update, Windows has installed "Feature update to Windows 10, version 1809" and, incidently or not LMS will no longer start. When I try and start as a service I just see the following line in the server.log:

[19-03-04 13:20:19.0676] main::init (387) Starting Logitech Media Server (v7.9.1, 1522157629, Fri Mar 30 12:17:59 WEDT 2018) perl 5.014001 - MSWin32-x86-multi-thread

I don't see anything after that and the service fails to start with Windows showing a dialog stating that LMS "started and then stopped". I don't have much to go on in the log, does anyone have any suggestions what I could do next please?

Thanks!

I have now edited log.conf to change all ERROR levels to DEBUG and restarted LMS in "safe mode". I have attached the resulting log. The first thing I spot is this:

[19-03-04 13:44:29.5044] Slim::Utils::Prefs::Migration::init (27) Can't locate Slim/Utils/Prefs/Migration/V9.pm in @INC (@INC contains: C:\PROGRA~2\SQUEEZ~1\server\CPAN\arch\5.14\MSWin32-x86-multi-thread C:\PROGRA~2\SQUEEZ~1\server\CPAN\arch\5.14\MSWin32-x86-multi-thread\auto C:\PROGRA~2\SQUEEZ~1\server\CPAN\arch\5.14.1\MSWin 32-x86-multi-thread C:\PROGRA~2\SQUEEZ~1\server\CPAN\arch\5.14.1\MSWin 32-x86-multi-thread\auto C:\PROGRA~2\SQUEEZ~1\server\CPAN\arch\5.14\MSWin32-x86-multi-thread C:\PROGRA~2\SQUEEZ~1\server\CPAN\arch\5.14\MSWin32-x86-multi-thread\auto C:\PROGRA~2\SQUEEZ~1\server\CPAN\arch\MSWin32-x86-multi-thread C:\PROGRA~2\SQUEEZ~1\server\CPAN\arch\5.14 C:\PROGRA~2\SQUEEZ~1\server\lib C:\PROGRA~2\SQUEEZ~1\server\CPAN C:/PROGRA~2/SQUEEZ~1/server C:/PROGRA~2/SQUEEZ~1/server C:\Users\Justin\AppData\Local\Temp\pdk-Justin-4664\ C:\PROGRA~2\SQUEEZ~1\server) at (eval 966) line 2.

...but I have no idea if that is relevant here.

Hah! A buglet gone unseen for four years! Thanks for this report. I'll
fix that.

Alas: this is not the reason for your failure. Please post all of your
server.log or upload it to

Thanks for your reply!

Please post all of your server.log

I have now added it to my last post. Any log before trying to start the service was removed, would you like that as well?

Please try to run SqueezeSvr.exe from a command window with the
--d_startup parameter.

Thanks, but before your last reply I tried uninstalling and reinstalling LMS. Something went wrong and I had to unintstall the service manually but I am now up and running again.
