Hi all.
Same problem. I've been a long time Slim2 user and love it. Purchased
a Slim 3 wireless and got through the wireless setup issues (seperate
story). Once I got the device connected and working, It was losing
connection with SlimServer. Invetigation reveled that the slimserver
service is crashing/stopping unexpectedly. Restarting results in the
service reverting back to a stopped state ("The SlimServer service
terminated unexpectedly.") This is both 6.5.0 and 6.5_v2006-12-02.
Multiple uninstalls and reinstalls has not helped.
With the service dead, no connectivity to port 9000. Basically I'm
dead in the water since I can't get the SlimServer service to run. My
next step is to try and revert back to an earlier version that I still
have saved.

This is Windows? It's running as a service? your music is on a NAS?
Try giving the service your account to run as (this is done by Start >
Run > services.msc, right-click the service, Properties > Log on).
Another high-likelihood problem is that you've got old plugins. Delete
them, and then start again.
Beyond that, my ESP fails :) A good general tip is to run it from a
command prompt (Start > Run > cmd) or Terminal ( Applications >
Utilities > Terminal). Change directories to the place where
Slimserver installed, then run the program -- it will spit out a bunch
of text, and the end out that output will probably explain why it
died.
