  • 1.  Hub Not Working

    We have a hub running 7.93 that won't start this morning after Windows updates.  It is a Windows 10 hub and I found that the robot.cfg was somehow empty but I restored it and it still won't start.  Here is some information from the controller.log (I increased the loglevel to 5 so we can get more information).  Any ideas?

    reboot
    if same problem exists
    if the nimsoft robot watcher service is active stop it
    make a backup copy of the nimsoft directory tree
    run the robot installer

    you controller.cfg was corrupted
    <controller>
    description = Robot process and port controller
    group = Infrastructure
    active = yes
    type = on_demand
    command = controller.exe
    config = robot.cfg
    logfile = controller.log
    workdir = robot
    </controller>

    Run the hub installer again
