Consider the following scenario:
| • | You are running a Windows Server 2003-based computer.
|
| • | An application on this computer receives WMI events from a
.NET-managed code-provider
application. |
In this scenario, the permanent event registrations of the
application are disabled. Therefore, you cannot start a new instance of the
application.
Back to the top
This issue occurs if the following conditions are true:
| • | There are multiple instances of the
.NET-managed
code-provider application. |
| • | One instance crashes, or one instance is terminated
abnormally. |
This issue occurs when the instance of the application is
terminated in a manner in which the
System.Management.Instrumentation classes are not unregistered. In this situation, Windows Management
Instrumentation (WMI) disables the permanent event registration for all
instances of the application until the WMI service is restarted or until the
computer is restarted.
