breath2k Posted June 15, 2012 Report Share Posted June 15, 2012 When I installed I got a message stating the service could not be started, when I try to manually start the service it says it has started and then stopped. I haven't used Plastic before and intended to trial it but haven't even got it to run yet. Is there a quick way to debug this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manu Posted June 15, 2012 Report Share Posted June 15, 2012 I would try installing Plastic with the administrator account, on the other hand the installation must claim for this requirement by default. You can There's another way to start the plastic server, just open a command line window (as admin), change the directory to the Plastic SCM server (c:\Program Files\PlasticSCM\server) and issue one of this commands: plasticd.exe --console plasticd.exe --tray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breath2k Posted June 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2012 I was Administrator, if I run in the command line won't it stop running once I logoff the server? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breath2k Posted June 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2012 Trying to run the console I got: Remoting configuration failed with the exception 'System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manu Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 Hello breath2k, I've seen this error before, sometime an anti-virus is blocking the Plastic SCM port. The windows firewall is also a good candidate for this port issue. Can you review your firewall/antivirus configuration? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breath2k Posted June 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 There is currently no antivirus installed on the same machine as it sbeing used for testing and I manually opened the port (which is currently 8087) in the firewall so I'm not sure what the problem is, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breath2k Posted June 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 I changed the port in the server config to something obscure like 8091 and checked this port was open using netsh firewall show state at a command line and shows its ok?

manu Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 Is it working at the 8091? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manu Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 From the Microsoft documentation: "another application, service, or kernel mode driver is bound to the same address with exclusive access. " (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms740668%28v=VS.85%29.aspx#winsock.wsaeacces_2) http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/netfxnetcom/thread/d23d471c-002a-4958-829e-eb221c8a4b76/ Try running a "netstat -an" command and check if something is blocking the port. Hope it helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breath2k Posted June 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 Nope, no entries at all for port 8087 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manu Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 I ran out of ideas, Plastic is not able to open a communication port in your system. Can you please try to launch the "plasticd.exe --console" with the windows Administrator account? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freewill78 Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 I have the same problem exactly. I have 5.0.44.598 - Mahon version of Plastic SCM. Please see attachment for console output. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freewill78 Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 Problem is resolved: There is a mono.security.dll found inside GAC. ($windir/assembly) I (accidentally-luckily) found that it is installed by Telerik ORM. I unistalled telerik orm, then unistall(right click) on mono.secuırity.dll in GAC folder. Now Plastic Server is running OK. I think this issue needs to be resolved by Plastic SCM developers as I was almost going for git Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
