The issue would occur if the catalog gets corrupt for whatever reason. Please check C:\Windows\System32\catroot2\dberr.txt if it contains some recent catalog errors.

We are facing the same problem at Windows Serwer 2012 r2 and Windows Serwer 2016 and Windows Serwer 2019 with Remote Destkop Licences after updating Eset to ver 10.

At some servers we downgrade to version 9

-----------------------------

To people with Eset Version 10

Solution to restart server is:

sc queryex sens
taskkill /PID XXXX /f

then You can do restart not hard restart server.
U can also start this service (sens) without restart but serwer will have still problems.

Please create a new topic and describe the issue in detail. The issue being discussed in this topic is about ekrn.exe not starting with Windows at times, however, v10 is not affected since it has certain Microsoft dlls signed by ESET to prevent long verification on system startup.

@ Marcos:
that is not correct.
We have the problems with version 10.
And we don't have problems at start-up, but during use.
So this is probably another case and it could be a bigger problem at ESET.

Same problem!

Server 2012 r2 with RDS and ESET V10.0.12010.0

ekrn.exe causes windows logon application to hang. Users unable to logoff, get message "Please wait for the system event notification service". Have to restart server to resolve temporarily. Also causes issues with windows explorer and taskbar.

I will try to downgrade to v9 and see if it resolves the issue for us.

@ Marcos

First post

The servers are then relatively difficult to operate and the message appears when logging off:
Please wait for "Notification text for system events".

As I am reading this topic all ppl write about this problem...

Isn't it possible to manually trigger a crash and generate a complete memory dump at this point as per https://support.eset.com/en/kb380?

Yes, I think so too.

We are experiencing the same problem on WS 2012 R2 and WS 2019. Both RDS.

And unfortunately we are not aware how to manually trigger a crash.

Please refer to https://support.eset.com/en/kb380 for instructions.

We've heard that switching to the pre-release update channel in the advanced setup reportedly fixes the issue. However, this has not been 100% confirmed yet and the issue as well as the root cause is being investigated. We're currently waiting for memory dumps to analyze them.

Doesn´t Work This, stills occurrs few times yet.

We'll need a complete memory dump from time when the issue occurs in order to determine the root cause.

Same here... 

 

Windows notifications services stuck on RDS session opening :( 

Windows Server 2019 affected.. 

We are thinking of uninstalling ESET and leaving Windows Defender until our dear editor patches the product

Has anyone managed to resolve this? I have the same problem with one of my customers. Windows Server 2016 with RDS role, ESET Server Security 10.0.12010.0. It will run fine for a few days, maybe a week, then sessions start getting blocked with the "waiting for SENS" message.

I will try to get a complete memory dump the next time it occurs.

Hello @2spiK and @Martin_L,

the development team needs a complete memory dump from such state to analyze the issue.
Once you have it, please pack it, upload to a safe location and send the download details to me and @Marcos over a private message

I'm just troubleshooting this for the second time in 3 weeks. We resolved the first instance of this on our 2019 RDS server by uninstalling KB5023702. We've now got the same issue after installing KB5025229. This server has ESET Server Security 10.0.12010.0.

I'm working through the issue at present.

Andy

Hello @Andy C,

sorry to hear that you experienced the issue again.
Can you please provide us with a complete memory dump from the server in such state so our development team can investigate it?

Once you have it, please pack it, upload to a safe location and send the download details to me and @Marcos over a private message.

Thank you, Peter

We have now experienced this issue in the last ~3 weeks on a range of different virtual servers (Hyper-V 2012 R2, 2016 and 2019), running on different hardware. There is no common thread apart from the fact we recently upgraded all our server antivirus versions to ESET Server Security 10.

What happens is that the server becomes unresponsive, a lot of programs refuse to open and when you try to restart the server, it will just hang with the message "waiting for system event notification service to close".

This needs *urgent* attention.

We indeed treat this with high priority, however, we need a complete memory dump from you for investigation and to determine the root cause.

I've experienced this problem some time ago. Server 2016 with RDS role & Eset 10.0.12010.0. Users suddenly couldn't copy files to/from remote desktop and when they tried logging out it stayed stuck at waiting for System Event Notification Service to shut down. I tried restarting the server and it coudn't shut down so I had to reset it (powercycle), after that it was working ok and I didn't investigate it . And now today it happened again and after reset I did some checking and found out many entries in event viewer that explorer.exe was not responding because of ekrn.exe. After that I looked here and found this topic. I don't have any memory dumps etc (and even If I did, that VM has 90GB of ram). I can only provide you with this.

I had the same problem with 4 Windows 2012R2 servers.

I noticed that when I get a notification from the server that some updates are ready to install, the problem appears.

After restarting the server, Windows applies the new updates and Eset too.

So far the servers seem fine.

If that can help.
