Yes – the updated version resolved the hanging problem. Don’t suppose there is anything about an inability to send SMTP alerts? Same sever running SAlive - now version 8.1.2746 I can test successfully the in the Alert Primary ( and alternate ) screens. I have tried both with direct checked and unchecked – test works either way – the alerting doesn’t work with direct checked or unchecked. This is the debugview during the test it sequence for the SAlive PID of 1672.

And from time to time it pops an error and stops working. I am not ready to hang the cause of that problem on ServersAlive but I thought I would install SAlive on another server to monitor SAlive on the first server. At least I would know primary had stopped monitoring and could deal with it. So I installed a second Servers Alive instance on a different (2012) server. I have two checks – one a ping which works consistently, the other an external check which runs a VB exe that I have been using for years with SAlive, and works fine on the primary server. I have SAlive running and the problem entry in maintenance with SAlive is checking every minute, when I set the problem entry to active, when the check fires on the next cycle, the SAlive GUI goes to Not Responding. I have also tried to run other external programs – they too hang SAlive. By hang, I mean the SAlive GUI goes to not responding and stays there. I can X out of the GUI so there is still some control but it ends “ungracefully” with a Windows “is not responding” dialog. The details from the dialog don’t give much of a clue (below) – to me anyway. When it is hung, the external check I am running does not appear in task list so I would claim it is getting stuck before it can actually fire the external check. I have learned that if I set the external program to cmd /c test.bat where test.bat contains my exe, THAT works. I also learned that setting check to cmd /c executable.exe hangs. I guess I can run my check with a batch file, but I have never had to before and wonder why this instance is different. My primary version is 7.9 this version is 8.0 ( thought I would test new version when I installed this second instance ). Anybody got and ideas – or means of further troubleshooting this behavior?
