Hummm...interesting minor bug with the latest beta version on Windows:
SrvrPowerCtrl now automatically sets wakeup timers when it sees SBS
going down. That means an instance of SCPowerTool.exe gets launched as
the Squeezebox Server service dies. However, SBS won't start again if
that instance of SCPowerTool.exe is still running. That effectively
kills, for example, the Extension Downloader's restart SBS function.
The solution here is easy: StartHidden.exe has to be incorporated into
the wakeup command. For Windows 7, the command should look like:
Schedule Wakeup Command:
Code:
--------------------
c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe /C start /B starthidden.exe scpowertool.exe
--wakeup=%d -q --log=C:\ProgramData\Squeezebox\Logs\srvrpowerctrl.log
--------------------
This will become the new default on windows for the wakeup command.
StartHidden.exe "detaches" a spawned process from it's parent, which is
what solves the problem of SBS being (wrongly) convinced that it's
already running as it tries to restart.
