Re: PMserver.exe listed twice in running processes - normal?
It looks like you are running PM2Service which launched one copy as an invisible service. And then perhaps you launched another copy manually? The second copy should have halted itself when it checked if it was already running. They can't both share the same data folder. I don't recommend using that PM2Service program as it's a kludgy hack written long ago.

this is what I see upon rebooting the server, without launching PM.
What should I use to have PM run as a service?

You probably have the "Auto start server at bootup" setting enabled AND the PMService utility installed. So try eliminating one or the other. I would suggest uninstalling that service per instructions here:smoke wrote:this is what I see upon rebooting the server, without launching PM.

I plan to make that a built-in feature of version 7.What should I use to have PM run as a service?
