Unfortunately, I don't know why you're having this problem, but you may be able to work around it sufficiently. The "services" that are listed in the CF logs don't correspond directly to Windows services - they're essentially JRun processes. I'd recommend that you set the CF service so that it doesn't attempt to start until the SQL Server service has started. You can do this by setting the "DependOnService" registry key: http://www.jsifaq.com/SUBA/tip0000/rh0069.htm Dave Watts, CTO, Fig Leaf Software http://www.figleaf.com/ Fig Leaf Software provides the highest caliber vendor-authorized instruction at our training centers in Washington DC, Atlanta, Chicago, Baltimore, Northern Virginia, or on-site at your location.
