Hi!

Thank you for the amazing tutorial! I searched and found another user with this same issue I'm having in the posts.He said he modified the VB script and the only vb script I saw was modder.vbs - and it was true it referenced drive d: throughout. I use drive c so I modified that script, BUT still no luck.

c:\winids\activators\by2-test returns success as it should: (I think)

>c:\winids\barnyard2\barnyard2.exe -c c:\winids\barnyard2\etc\barnyard2.conf -d c:\winids\snort\log -f merged.log -l c:\winids\barnyard2 -w c:\winids\snort\log\barnyard.wald

Barnyard2 successfully loaded configuration file!
Barnyard2 exiting
database: Closing connection to database "snort"

There is nothing in event viewer referencing this crash.

when I try net start baryard2:

C:\>net start barnyard2
The Barnyard2 service is starting.
The Barnyard2 service could not be started.

The service did not report an error.

More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 3534.

Is there anywhere else to look? Does anyone have any ideas?

Thank you in advance!
