TV Service Failed to Start (1 Viewer)

[Luke Hendo]

OK. I have finally managed to get to the bottom of it (with your fantastic, and greatly appreciated guidance!), however I am still a bit stuck.

So the TVservice is set to be dependent of MySQL service, however the wamp mysql is actually called wampmysqld64 service. I have managed to change the TVservice dependency in my registry to wampmysqld64 and everything works fine, however upon restart, it resets the TVservice dependency to MySQL.

Any idea how I can change the dependency in my registry and have it stick after a reset?

Ahhh, I see. That would explain things.

...however upon restart, it resets the TVservice dependency to MySQL.

Hmmm, I'm not sure how Windows or TV Server would be doing that.
How are you setting the the dependency?
I know when TV Server installs itself it writes the dependency into HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\TVService DependOnService. Make sure you're not changing ControlSet00*. That probably wouldn't stick.

If worst comes to worst you may need to do one more reinstall and enter the correct information during the DB configuration step.
Alternatively you can run SetupTv.exe with the /configure-db command line switch to reconfigure the DB connection.
