I feel like that is a software generated file, though. Configuration files generally appear in C:\Program Files (x86)\BBWin\etc.
Even if it was supposed to be there, what should be in it? The installer made a bbwin.cfg file in the etc directory, but the tmp directory is empty.

It is telling you the issue:

Seems like a strange place for a config file.

I have some additional information. I changed the logging level from 3 to 4, restarted the service, and the logs now show the following.

I just learned of BBWin last night and have been trying to get it to work with my Xymon system. I've got it installed and started, added the system to hosts.cfg on the server, and I can now see it on conn, info, and trends, but nothing else. I only changed BBWin.cfg enough to set the "mode" to "central".
The C:\Program Files (x86)\BBWin\logs\BBWin.log file shows these messages every 5 minutes:
[filesystem]: can't open C:\Program Files (x86)\BBWin\tmp\clientlocal.cfg : The system cannot find the file specified.
[msgs]: can't open C:\Program Files (x86)\BBWin\tmp\clientlocal.cfg : The system cannot find the file specified.
[svcs]: can't open C:\Program Files (x86)\BBWin\tmp\clientlocal.cfg : The system cannot find the file specified.
I've also found the following error when I restart the BBWin service:
[filesystem]: failed to load logfetch status C:\Program Files (x86)\BBWin\tmp\logfetch.status : The system cannot find the file specified.
I confirmed that these files are missing, but the "tmp" folder exists.
Any thoughts on what I've missed?
