  • VE Pro Server - random crashes when loading metaframe

     I recently upgraded my slave machines and am now having trouble with random crashes while loading a metaframe.

    I use the slaves decoupled - they just load up a metaframe and sit there waiting for a connection from the sequencer on another machine.  Probably half of the times I boot up the slave, it crashes while loading the metaframe.  So I close the crash notification dialog box, load the server back up (without rebooting), then it works fine every time.  The trouble is that I have to log on to the machine to load up the metaframe - for the past several years, I just booted the computer and had a shortcut to the metaframe in the startup directory, so it loaded up automatically and I never had to access the slave until I needed to shut it down.  The old slaves ran under WinXP 64 and the new slaves are Win7, so there is an OS difference in addition to the hardware difference.

    Now here's the real kicker: I bought two slaves, exactly the same, and this only happens on *one* of the systems.  So it seems like it's related to the particular metaframe on that machine.  The other machine loads up just fine every time.

    Any suggestions on where to look to solve the problem?

     Any guesses on where to start debugging?  I've uninstalled then reinstalled elicenser and VE Pro but that had no effect.

    Thanks,
