AVTechMan 7 Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Oh okay, no problem then, was just wondering. Not too big of a deal, plus can always select the 'Start MB on Startup' and disable the service if I needed the restart feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrKazador 5 Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 I remote desktop into the server and run a simple .bat file that "restarts" it by stopping and starting the service. net stop mediabrowser net start mediabrowser 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVTechMan 7 Posted October 15, 2013 Author Share Posted October 15, 2013 Right now I am testing MB3 server started as a windows service and works quite well. I have noted that whenever a plugin is installed MB3 requests a restart to finish the installation. However, the 'Restart MB3 Server' button is now gone and just the 'Shutdown MB3' is there, which mean I would have to log onto the server itself to restart the service. Would it be possible to add the Restart button back in the Dashboard, or will I have to manually restart the Windows service each time a plugin is downloaded?

It's due to a current limitation within the service. During dev testing, we were having issues with consistently restarting the service, so the manual download and restart was implemented. If it's causing a problem, stop the service and restart as previously done. Automatic downloads and updates will be performed, you will only have to restart the server.

Luke 37092 Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 We were unable to get an automated restart to perform reliably, so we pulled it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
