I know that standalone TVServer on windows 2003 is not a supported platform, but a lot of people have posted about this problem

My machine is a clean install of Server 2003 that is fully up to date, has latest runtimes and patches, I have disabled the firewall, tried the host file fix that has been recommended in other posts but I still get the following error when trying to run TVServer config

Failed to startup tvserviceSystem.Net.Sockets.SocketException: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 10.0.0.4:31456

I would post logs but none are generated, but I have noticed that when starting TVServer Configuration the following appears in event viewer:

SQL Server has encountered 4 occurrence(s) of cachestore flush for the 'Object Plans' cachestore (part of plan cache) due to some database maintenance or reconfigure operations.

TV Server service is stopped

Starting up database 'MpTvDb'.

TV Server - service started successfully

If I uninstall and install TVServer 1.02 then I have no problems and TVServer Configuration runs fine.

Thanks

Unlikely.

With anything like this, have you everything installed that is on the requirement page

Yep... all requirements met. I even installed WMP 11 on 2003 to keep the installer happy.

It's a shame that 2003 is no longer supported as for a standalone TV Server it seems a logical choice.

Especially in the Windows Home Server is based on 2003 and is the perfect place to install your TV server as the box is always on....

Please ask MS to provide needed components on that OS.

Rename TVService.exe.config to TVService.config and see if that gets you any farther?

Fair comment tourettes...... Hopefully their next version won't be too far away....
