I’m having issues with Ignition 8.0.16 not Running after rebooting my windows (10) machine. I’ve tried the following fixes: 1. Setting Ignition Service to Automatic (delayed start) 2. Adding `wrapper.java.additional.4=-XX:UseAVX=0` to igntion.conf file as explained here: [Ignition Gateway not starting after long time](http://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/ignition-gateway-not-starting-after-long-time/32278/17) 3. Changing Java path to match my Java exe path in igntition.conf file as explained here: [https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC79/Changing+Gateway+Java+Version](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC79/Changing+Gateway+Java+Version) Originally the Gateway status was “Started - Not Running” when i ran “gwcmd -i, --info” After all of these changes it now says: Error: could not open `C:\Program Files\Inductive Automation\Ignition\lib\runtime\jre-win\lib\jvm.cfg’ I’ve double checked and indeed, that jvm.cfg file does not exist. I turned on “wrapper.debug=TRUE” in the ignition.conf file and received the following feedback: ```auto Java Command Line (Query Java Version): DEBUG | wrapper | 2020/11/13 08:30:25 | Command: "lib\runtime\jre-win\bin\java" -version DEBUG | jvm ver. | 2020/11/13 08:30:25 | Error: could not open `C:\Program Files\Inductive Automation\Ignition\lib\runtime\jre-win\lib\jvm.cfg' ERROR | wrapper | 2020/11/13 08:30:25 | Failed to parse the version of Java. Resolving to the lowest supported version (1.4). ``` then later: ```auto INFO | jvm 4 | 2020/11/13 08:30:25 | Error: could not open `C:\Program Files\Inductive Automation\Ignition\lib\runtime\jre-win\lib\jvm.cfg' ``` Any help to remedy this situation and to create a permanent fix for future server reboots is much appreciated. ---

If you stop the gateway, delete the `jre-win` folder, then start it again - does it the new runtime that is unzipped include the jvm.cfg file? If you then reboot is it gone? Do you you have any anti-virus software running? ---

Followed your steps of stopping gateway, deleting jre-win folder, starting again and it unzipped the jre-win.zip folder and indeed, the jvm.cfg file is now back and i can access the Ignition webserver again! Going to reboot windows now to see what happens ---

Gateway service will not start after reboot. Tried manually starting in windows services as well as start-ignition.bat log file gave me different information this time, something relating to stack size: ```auto DEBUG | wrapper | 2020/11/13 09:17:50 | Magic number for file C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath\java.exe: 0x4d5a9000 DEBUG | wrapper | 2020/11/13 09:17:50 | Java Command Line (Query Java Version): DEBUG | wrapper | 2020/11/13 09:17:50 | Command: "C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath\java.exe" -version DEBUG | jvm ver. | 2020/11/13 09:17:50 | java version "1.8.0_131" DEBUG | jvm ver. | 2020/11/13 09:17:50 | Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_131-b11) DEBUG | jvm ver. | 2020/11/13 09:17:50 | Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 25.131-b11, mixed mode) DEBUG | wrapper | 2020/11/13 09:17:50 | Java version: 8.0.131 DEBUG | wrapper | 2020/11/13 09:17:50 | Java vendor: Oracle DEBUG | wrapper | 2020/11/13 09:17:50 | Java bits: 64-Bit DEBUG | wrapper | 2020/11/13 09:17:50 | Reading the JVM output using the encoding of the current locale (1252).

My apologies, i still had the following line commented out in the ignition.conf file and that was preventing the starting of the gateway service: ```auto wrapper.java.command=%JAVA_HOME%/bin/java ``` Still need to test the robustness of the gateway after reboots, as i had to manually start again.
