--There is something wrong with the installation. Yes you're right - the installation never completes - ever - no matter what I do. That's what the problem is. The Control Panel always shows "Status: The server is stopped". Any attempt to start the server ends with the "FATAL: There is already another copy of the SqueezeboxServerrunning on this machine" on the server.log file. I can never start the server because of this message.
The netstats and task manager screenshots that I posted are all from that point of view - the install is crashing. I took it to mean from your prior posts that perhaps the 3483 port is busy or owned or whatever while the install is proceeding. I was hoping that the Before install, During install, and After install netstat "views" of the install process would have a few clues. I appreciate your help and want to be clear about the problem - the install always shows the above fatal error message and the server can never be started. So from that perspective, do the netstats that I posted show any clues re the necessary Slim ports? I was hoping you would see a problem there. Any time I attempt an install all Slim folders (in Program Folders and also AllUsers\ApplicationData\Squeezebox and all registry entries (at least for SqueezeCenter and Squeezebox) are blown away beforehand. The Event Viewer Security log shows no warnings or errors during installation. After a failed install I tried to run the SqueezeSvr.exe from a cmd window and get the usual error as follows: C:\>"C:\Program Files\Squeezebox2\server\SqueezeSvr.exe" [10-01-04 17:42:55.0156] main::init (320) Starting Squeezebox Server (v7.4.1, r28947, Tue Oct 20 08:13:15 PDT 2009) perl 5.010000 [10-01-04 17:43:02.2812] Slim::Networking::UDP::init (39) FATAL: There is already another copy of the Squeezebox Server running on this machine.
