Hello Rodrigo,

I have found that if you want to run a version of 3.7.7 or lower on Windows as a service your best bet is Installing Oracle JDK 8. I know it doesn't necessarily follow the recommendation's here, but it allows you to run as a service.

https://docs-v3.mango-os.com/installing-java

• For Mango versions 3.6.x and higher we recommend using the latest version of Adopt OpenJDK.

• For Mango versions 3.5.x and lower you should use JDK 8 (OpenJDK 8 should work however we primarily tested on Oracle JDK). Older versions of Mango may not work correctly if you use a newer JDK.

• OpenJDK 8 builds for ARM 32 processors seem to perform extremely poorly, we suggest avoiding this JDK

Another option that I haven't looked into is explained here.

When changing to a service on windows your GUID will more than likely change (Thank you Dave)
This will require a request to transfer you license from the old GUID to the new one.

If you run into that - below is the link to request the transfer.

Hello Rodrigo,

Here is another alternative. This works on windows with AdoptOpenJDK 11.

https://nssm.cc/

NSSM - the Non-Sucking Service Manager

Thank you, Terry.

While testing, I am using the following input

[[inputs.win_perf_counters.object]]
# Processor usage, alternative to native, reports on a per core.
ObjectName = "Processor"
Instances = [""]
Counters = [
"% Idle Time",
"% Interrupt Time",
"% Privileged Time",
"% User Time",
"% Processor Time",
"% DPC Time",
]
Measurement = "win_cpu"
# Set to true to include _Total instance when querying for all ().
IncludeTotal=true

The message to be sent is the following

win_cpu,host=LAPTOP,instance=2,objectname=Processor,source=telegraf Percent_DPC_Time=0,Percent_Idle_Time=89.79866790771484,Percent_Interrupt_Time=0,Percent_Privileged_Time=0,Percent_Processor_Time=3.9585533142089844,Percent_User_Time=3.098111152648926 1604960081000000000

What is making it to Mango ends up looking like this

Along with some additional errors for points that failed to be created.

I do have Treat integers as Numeric types checked but seem to keep getting NumberFormatExceptions and Invalid Line Length errors. Can Mango only handle a single value being sent at a time?

Thank you.

Hello,

While testing the data source, the help section indicates the following -

There are 2 env properties that configure how the Line Protocol endpoint behaves.

lineProtocol.task.queueWarningSize - Size of line queue at to which raise an event warning of queue growth
lineProtocol.pointValidation.cacheExpirySeconds - When creating data points Mango will cache the existing points on this data source for performance during validation, this is how long they should live in the cache

These 2 lines do not exist in the env.properties file. Could you provide an example of what the recommended defaults should be?

Thank you.

javaws.jar is not included in AdoptOpenJDK which is required for YAJSW to work.

Thank you @terrypacker. I had a global script using $EXEC
Once I removed that the script would execute.

I receive the error when validating the script in both the v3 and legacy UI.

I checked and on this particular instance of mango I had made the changes referenced here
https://forum.infiniteautomation.com/topic/4503/simple-ping-monitor
and here
https://forum.infiniteautomation.com/topic/3818/invoke-shell-commands-from-a-scripting-environment

Thanks @CraigWeb
I corrected that and continue to have the same error.

Hello,

This is related to Core 3.6.4 / Meta 3.6.2.

When attempting a simple script

var myTotal = (p1148.value + p1164.value + p1068.value + p22238.value);
return(myTotal);

I receive the following error that I was hoping someone could shed some light on -

ReferenceError: "$EXEC" is not defined at line: 23 at line: 23

Thank you
