Hi, I already download the latest photon server.

When I run the service, everything is normal, service is running. But then, this message is appear:

I run Photon Server windows xp 32 in my laptop (localhost).
Anyone can help me?

    Hello,
    this looks strange - I have not seen this error before, and I can not exactly reproduce it on a Win XP 32 machine, so I can only take a guess.

    - Which .NET versions are installed on your machine? Please install .NET 3.5 (incl. ServicePack 1) if you don't have it yet. I can reproduce similar errors when .NET 3.5 is missing, so that would be the first thing I would look at.
    - Can you please check if the PhotonCLR.log shows an error, too, and post it here please if it contains something suspicious?
    - Are you running Photon under an account with administrator privileges? If not - can you try that, please?

    You can also remove / comment out the CounterPublisher app from the PhotonServer.config, so that we can see if there will be a similar error for the other apps, or if it is only a problem of the CounterPublisher.

    <!--
    <Application
    Name="CounterPublisher"
    BaseDirectory="CounterPublisher"
    Assembly="CounterPublisher"
    Type="Photon.CounterPublisher.Application"
    EnableAutoRestart="true"
    WatchFiles="dll;config"
    ExcludeFiles="log4net.config">
    </Application>
    -->

    Please share your solution if you find one, and let me know if you still have trouble, so that we can look into it further.

    And as a side note - we recommend to use Vista / Windows 7 for development, we don't optimize for Windows XP (although we have made some nice improvements for XP / 32bit that will be part of the upcoming Photon 3.0 release ). :)

    -I got .NET 3.5, I also install .NET 4.0 because one of the test program from the SDK is asking for .net 4.0 when I try to run it. The error already exist before I install .NET 4.0
    When I check the Add & Remove program window from my control panel, here is the list of .NET framework in my computer:
    .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 1
    .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 2
    .NET Framework 3.5
    .NET Framework 4 Client Profile
    .NET Framework 4 Extended
    .NET Framework 4 Multi Targeting Pack
    Is there any missing framework from the list?
    Since my computer is capable to run UNITY 3D 3.5 and Unity Master Server (localhost server) with all of .NET framework list above, so I don't know where is the problem.

    -I already check PhotonCLR.log. Nothing suspicious (I think). I also running as Administrator. Here is the log

    -When Conter Publisher is under the comment mark. The log is saying similar error, the different is, the error is at AppDomain 2

    Thanks for the update. You are right - you have everything installed that is required to run Photon, and the additional log does not give much additional info. Looks all good so far.
    I'll try to look at your issue more closely next week. In general, I suspect that there is something missing - or better, something special - with your machine, but I hope that we can track it down. :)

    Okay, thanks. I also try the previous photon version, and still got the same error.
    Meanwhile, I was curious about the config file on the error report. So I was wondering, what happen if I rename the config file?

    So, I rename lite.dll.config into litedll.config

    The AppDomain 2 error is gone, but the error still appear in other AppDomain. So I try to rename all .dll.config by removing the dot. I got no AppDomain error but now, this one is shows up:

    Could it be you already run one Photon Instance? Check your task manager and also the services.
    If you find something, stop it and you could try to start the new Photon again (with the original naming of the configs).

    Hi Tobias,
    In the task manager only appear PhotonControl.exe and PhotonSocketServer.exe. And when the error is kick in, PhotonSocketServer.exe is gone from the process tab.

    When you said about the Instance, I realize if I'm not install the applications as a service. There's no instance in the service list. But when I install it, the instance1 is appear.

    I try to run it with the original file name of the config, the AppDomain and socket bind exception is gone, the last log is showing service is running.
    But the weird thing is, the icon still in gray. There is a shutdown message in the log:
    3828: 22:48:08.593 - Shutdown request from PhotonHostRuntime: On startup, license monitor must be available / reachable.
3828: 22:48:08.593 - Shutdown requested.

    I check back the service list, the photon instance status still blank with Startup Type is Automatic. When I try to run it from service list, I got a message window pop out, telling me if the service is running but then stopped.

    Here is the log:

    Hi, we have several different issues here... lets see if we can sort it out.

    1.) We have released the Photon 3.0 final, and it contains some fixes + improvements for Win32. I recommend that you download it:
    http://www.exitgames.com/Download/Photon

    2.) Shutdown because license monitor is not reachable (your last entry):
    Photon is validating it's license against a license server. You need to permit outgoing HTTP connections from Photon in your firewall, and make sure that you have network connectivity on your laptop when you start Photon. (It was okay in the first log you posted).

    3.) Removing the [application].dll.config is not a good idea, because the applications require the info from the config files. ;) The config files itself are fine. The "invalid memory access" error happened when the .NET runtime tried to load the assembly in which the config sections are declared, it's an assembly loading issue rather than a config file issue.

    So, can you please check out the latest Photon version, and if you can resolve the license monitor issue, test again as a service & and as an appliation (from my point of view, it should not make much difference)? Let me know how it works, I'm really curious what this issue is, especially because I could not reproduce it yet.

    Thanks for your patience and all the info you provided!

    Hi, I've downloaded the new version, and everything is working!
    I already test the connection using HelloWorld1 program and the program is connected to the server.

    When I install the service, Photon Service is appear under the name: "Default" (the Instance1 service still there). I run the service ("Default") and the status on the Computer Management is: Started. I try to run directly from the Computer Management, and no error message :D

    About the license monitor, do I need to stay connected to the Internet when the Photon Server is running?

    Thank you for your help :)

    If you use a floating license, yes.
    But: Photon 3.0 final starts completely without .license file and then doesn't need a connection. This limits the CCU to 20.

    Thanks for your feedback! We are very glad to hear that your problems were solved by the Photon 3.0 final version.
    We have renamed the default instance from "Instance1" to "Default", in case you want to remove the "Instance1" service, this should do the trick: 
    PhotonSocketServer.exe /remove Instance1
