Hi Jeff,
You may want to consider running a trace against the arplugin.exe process. Looking at the details you provided it looks like you are on Windows. You should be able to get some debug/trace utilities on the internet that would be equivalent of trace/strace on UNIX servers. It may give you some idea about what might be causing the plugin server to crash. You can try comparing the output taken when using the different versions of the executable (one that crashes and one that does not). Hope this helps Kind Regards Jiri Pospisil From: Jeff Lockemy [mailto:jlock...@gmail.com] Sent: 10 September 2015 16:49 Subject: Re: Custom Filter Plug-In Failing ** Thank you LJ From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of LJ LongWing Sent: Thursday, September 10, 2015 8:35 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG <mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG> Subject: Re: Custom Filter Plug-In Failing ** Obvious something is going on, I have no clue what out could be though.

We have a custom C filter plug-in that works fine on 7.6.4 SP3 and 8.1 (no service pack) but it fails on 7.6.4 SP5 and 8.1 SP1 and SP2. Looking at the arplugin.exe, the file size increased a decent percentage from the version it works in to the version that it's now failing in. So I suspect that BMC made some changes to the arplugin.exe in late 2013/early 2014 that is now causing our filter plug-in to fail. If anyone is experiencing the same issue and potential workaround, or has a custom C filter plug-in that runs successfully on 7.6.4 SP5 or 8.1 SP1 or SP2 that they could send me for comparison purposes that may help, I would really appreciate it.
