Stunnel Windows Server 2008 R2
I have installed stunnel 5.03 on Windows Server 2008 R2 X64. When I run it as an application it works perfectly. When I install and run the service, it starts but the start notice window, title bar, says Stunnel 5.03 win32 (not configured). It appears that the stunnel service is not reading the stunnel.conf. If anyone has any suggestions how I can successfully run stunnel as a service, I would be very appreciative. Thank you!
Were you able to confirm the service is pointing at stunnel.conf and not stunnel.cfg maybe?

Thanks for the reply Mike. I scoured the documentation and was unable to find how to point the service to any specific configuration file, can you point me in the right direction? On 21.Aug.14 18:20, Michael Curran wrote:

Hello, I suggest you perform a test with some old version of stunnel, such as 4.35, because since then there has been some changes in CreateFile open flags that are causing some problems ( eg on Wce, solved by my last patch).

Pierre, thank you! That solved my problem! Do you know if this issue will be resolved in future versions of Stunnel? On 22.Aug.14 01:20, Pierre wrote:

Ok, good... Anyway...may I suggest that you play again with 5.03... BUT with "read for everyone" right both on the directory containing the conf file and the conf file itself. I cannot tell about my patch, but I know that Michal has plans for it. Yours sincerely Pierre Delaage Le 22/08/2014 18:43, 541401@gmail.com a écrit :

Hello, You will find that in the code itself... By default the conf file should be located in the "current" directory : ie where the executable is. But, if you have placed the stuff in "c:\program files..." this folder may have specific access rights that prevent a service to read from it. This is why I suggest that you retry v5.03 with giving "read access to everyone" on that folder and any file inside. Regards Pierre Delaage Le 22/08/2014 03:47, 541401@gmail.com a écrit :

Thanks again Pierre, with V 5.03 I had installed Stunnel in a non-system directory named "bin\stunnel" in the root of the C: drive, which contained the stunnel.conf and stunnel executable files. Permissions were set for full access by "everyone". 5.03, as a service, would still not read the CONF file. I very much appreciate your assistance! On 23.Aug.14 06:42, Pierre DELAAGE wrote:

Hi, I ran into the same problem with Stunnel 5.03 on Windows 7 and downgrading to V 4.35 fixed it. Is there a new version to address this issue going to be available at some point?

Hopefully you were smarter than I and didn't piss away several hours trying to solve the issue before turning to this forum? I felt kind of foolish for wasting so much time trying to fix it on my own. On 28.Aug.14 10:50, WNSDEV wrote:
