SEC v5.0.0.8 and Sophos Web Intelligence Update Service

Hey,

I had to do a reboot on our Sophos server over the weekend. Upon coming back up the system was complaining that there was a service that had failed to start. The service was the Sophos Web Intelligence Update Service.

Currently the "Startup Type" is set to "Automatic"

If I attempt to start the service manually, it starts and stops immediately and I get the Windows message stating this.

I am assuming that since the "Startup Type" is "Automatic" that this service should be in the "running" state.

I have checked the Windows Event Viewer and there is nothing logged there about the service.

I have also gone through the logs for Sophos and I haven't been able to find anything that might explain

why this service isn't starting.

Is there anything I can do to try and troubleshoot what the issue is? Or are there logs that perhaps I am missing that might reveal the issue?

Thank you

  • Hello MikeFinney,

    it expects, RIGHTFULLY, that a service set to Automatic is expected to be running at all times

    who says so? Admittedly there aren't many services showing this behaviour but  Microsoft .NET Framework NGEN ... is one of them.
