I have multiple Win2016 servers running PS client. I would suspect your issue may be related to permissions of Program Files where you are running the ps1 script. It will want to create some sub-folders for data collection.
I use a C:\Utils folder with user modify permission to run my scripts without any issues.

Hi,
I wanted to know if anyone is able to get xymonpsclient.exe to work on window server 2016.
When I run the xymonclient.ps1 install it works, but once I run xymonclient.ps1 start I get the following error:
start-service : Failed to start service 'XymonPSClient (XymonPSClient)'. At C:\Program Files\xymon\xymonclient.ps1:3814 char:60
- ... $xymonsvcname).Status -ne "Running") { start-service $xymonsvcname }
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- FullyQualifiedErrorId : StartServiceFailed,Microsoft. PowerShell.Commands.StartServiceCommand
Any help would be great.
Thanks
