Ctl service hung on starting

[posknowitall]

Aloha 5.3. Alohamgr opens but no login screen pops up. When I look in the event viewer it shows ctl service hung on starting. What could cause this?

You may need to reregister the service. There are batch files created in your iberdir root when you install. One is for registering, and one is for unregistering. Do this:

Run the UNREG batch file and reboot.

Run the REGISTER batch file and reboot.

See if ctlsvr is started when you bring it back up. If not, try to start it again and see if you get a logon failure.

If you get a logon failure, you have to appropriately configure the logon as an administrator user on the machine if you are running win 2000. If there is a user setup, retype the passwords and try again.

if the previous suggetsions didn't work, check to see if your are connected to the FOH and is the front of house running. Ctrl service will not run unless there is a connection on the nic card assigned to lana 0. You will get a "failed to register station name" error in the debout and ctl service will not run.
