We have many domUs windows 7 64 bit on production systems, all with build

Randomly, during install shutdown monitor service wasn't created and we not 
understand why.
All other things about gplpv are working, someone can help me to solve this 
problem please?



I had the same issue the other week. I even spent time to build a set from 
source and it didn't create the service. The build created shutdownmon.exe and 
is included in the WIX installer, but the Xen service isn't created on install.

Perhaps someone on the list could point us in the right direction to manually 
create the service?

For those interested, a build based on source code tagged 0.11.0.295 is 
available at http://www.nooblet.org/blog/2011/gplpv-drivers-0-11-0-295/ .

The service is installed with a -i option to the exe, and can be uninstalled 
with a -u option. Maybe you could try uninstalling and reinstalling a few times 
to see if it fails sometimes?

Excellent! Thank you :)

I have 3x Win2008R2 machines, and tried the following:

shutdownmon.exe -i
check service installed and start it, then stop it
shutdownmon.exe -u
reboot
check service uninstalled
shutdownmon.exe -i
reboot
check service installed and running

For all 3 machines it worked fine all round.

Thanks for the tip :)
