CFMX windows services stopping

[steve_avey]

Hi,

Has anyone else run into the situation where the CFMX 7 ColdFusion services are stopping randomly?

Set-up - Server 2000, CFMX 7, IIS 5

On checking the windows services i'm finding that the services are failing which require a restart, this holds up for a while then the services stops again. On restarting i'm then sometimes receiving the 'service specific error 2', strangely enough not all the time though, i did set the services to auto restart on failure, this however does not seem to start the stopped service, is there a set order they should be starting in? If there is a service dependency can be set, any ideas?

This has also been coupled with a license key error in the logs saying the server may be out of compliance, we have checked all our license keys they are all valid, bit stumped on that one.

Any ideas & help greatly appreciated...

That's a fairly generic error message - have you dug through the JRun (runtime) logs, and/or the system event logs?
