Problem description

The Windows services sometimes doesn't start after a reboot.

Steps to reproduce the problem

  1. Reboot!

Environment

  • Sidecar Version: 1.1.0

Potential solution

I've been changing the startup type to "Automatic (delayed) from "Automatic". This seems to resolve it in most cases. Occasionally I still see it not starting but it is rarer. If no better solution can be found, making this the default when the service is installed would definitely help.

I'm not getting anything in the sidecar logs to indicate what the problem is.

Can reproduce. We're seeing the issue in a higher frequency when servers are rebooted after/while patching.

Set Windows service type to "Automatic (Delayed Start)"

After a reboot, this will delay service startup a little.

Also, if the service fails after initially running, it will
now be restarted after a delay of two minutes.

The goal of this change is to reduce the chance of
sporadic startup issues on Windows, that some users
have been experiencing.
