Hi Everyone, When installing STEP7 on a vmware workstation 8 running XP SP3, the installation procedure hangs. The service s7oiehsx blocks and uses 25% of my CPU. When i ignore the errors, all works fine until i whant to go online via ehternet, sometimes the communication server fails and ik have to restart the virtual machine. I asked also the question at http://communities.vmware.com/message/1989279 for all details Yes i know that siemens doens't support the vmware, and i know there are people who are using this successfully with STEP7. (I am using STEP7 SP5 and WinCC flexible) My question: What does the S7oiehsx service exacly? I know it is opening the iso-tsap port on my pc and it is the process "s7oiehsx.exe+0xc66cc" that is causing the delay. Thanks in advance, Coldrestart. |

Hi, The setup just "hangs" so i don't have any error's.Once i killed the process, the setup continous. I also tested it with windows XP SP2 Here some screenshots of proces explorer, as you can see it opens port 102, so i don't think it is just the "help" function, it is IEPG helper -> PG -> communications? I had crashing communication when i go online via ehternet. When i have that error, i will post the error message. Can you give your exact configuration -> windows + installed S7 software with versions? Kind regards Attachmentscreenshots.zip (353 Downloads) |
