Hi, At 22.11 14/04/2009, Philip de Souza wrote: Wow this is frustrating!Sorry, but I need help again. I had everything working on our testbed Windows 2003 platform (for reverse proxy accelerator services), and so when I go and deploy Squid in the same fashion on the live proxy server, I get the following when trying to start the SQUID service: "Could not start the Squid service on local computer. Error 1067: the process terminated unexpectedly." I actually received this error when trying to start it on the test server as well, but was able to resolve it by upgrading the server to SP2. The live server already has SP2 installed but I installed all outstanding patches on it anyway, just in case - no deal. On both machines I ran the squid -z command to establish the log directory first. I'm really floored by why this is happening though and would GREATLY appreciate anybody's help. We're supposed to be going live with this now and this recurring issue is really raining on the parade! Many thanks as ever. Look the following: - cache.log messages - squid.exe.log in the sbin folder - Try to start squid from command line and see what happens Regards Guido - ======================================================== Guido Serassio Acme Consulting S.r.l. - Microsoft Certified Partner Via Lucia Savarino, 1 10098 - Rivoli (TO) - ITALY Tel. : +39.011.9530135 Fax. : +39.011.9781115 Email: WWW: http://www.acmeconsulting.it/ Hi,

One of the errors occurring for Windows
Services is Error 1067, The process terminated unexpectedly. This is an error that you might encounter when you are trying to start a service-based operation on your Windows 11/10. This error occurs mainly due to faulty services, or corrupted settings of that particular service. The fix for this issue is outlined in this post. Error 1067 can occur with any of the background services in Windows 10 PC. Whichever is the service affected, the fix described here is applicable. In this post, we will choose the Fax service as our case in point. Before you proceed with the fix, try to restart your computer and check if the error persists. If it persists, then follow the steps below.
Before you begin, remember to create a system restore point first. 1] Refresh the potentially corrupted Service settings in RegistryPress Windows key + R key to launch the Run dialog box. Type regedit in the box and hit Enter to open the Registry Editor window. On Registry Editor window, navigate to
Locate and right-click on your service with error 1067 (in this case, Fax service) under Services branch. Then choose Export. Choose a place to save it on the pop-up window. This is for safety reasons. Back on Registry Editor window, right-click on the Fax service, but this time choose Delete. Exit the window. Restart your computer. This will refresh or reinstall the Windows Service. If this does not help, you may Merge back the saved Registry file. Go to the Fax service file; you saved to the desktop when you performed the export action above in Step 1. Right-click on the file and select Merge (see screenshot below). Click Yes on the confirmation prompt. This will install the Fax service back. 2] Run System File Checker or DISMRun the System File Checker, ie. Run sfc /scannow from an elevated command prompt. Reboot on completion and check. Windows 10 users may repair their Windows System Image and see if it helps. 3] Manually start the ServicePress Windows logo key + R to launch the Run dialog box. Type services.msc and hit Enter to open the Windows Services window. In the Services window, locate and right-click on Fax service. Ensure that its Startup type is not set to Disabled. Click Start and close the window. The Windows Service this time should start without the error 1067. 4] Troubleshoot in Clean Boot StateBoot in Safe Mode and see if the Service is starting. Many times, non-Microsoft services or Drivers can interfere with the proper functioning of System Services. Alternatively, you could also execute a Clean Boot and troubleshoot manually to find the offending process that may be interfering. 5] Use Refresh Windows Tool or reinstall the programIf your Windows 10 computer is facing a lot of issues, including corrupt files, then it’s best to use Windows 10 Refresh Tool. The process does the following:
It ultimately fixes your computer without you worrying about any data loss. To use it, you need to download the Refresh Windows Tool from Microsoft. Windows 11 or Windows 10 users may also use the Reset This PC option. If the Service giving errors are related to any software, reinstalling the software would be the best option.
