I'm unable to start the PRTG Core Server service via Services. This PRTG has been working for a long time already. Not sure why this is happening now. Application log shows "Could not start webserver: Structural error in xml file, 9 open items. ID: -1000".

Hello,
could be that the configuration got corrupted.
please stop all PRTG services and then please exchange your running configuration
PRTG Configuration.dat
for one from the Configuration Auto-Backup folder
then restart your services.
use a configuration file from a day you know PRTG did startup fine.
and then start the PRTG services.

Hello,
Could you please forward us your system log files for analysis? You can find the same under
XP/2003: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Paessler\PRTG Network Monitor\Logs (System)
Vista/2008: C:\ProgramData\Paessler\PRTG Network Monitor\Logs (System)
Please send the Logs(System) folder as a zip file if possible.
If you have changed the location of the data folder in the past or if you can not find current log files in the above location, please check your data path in the PRTG Server Administrator Tool on the PRTG server.
please send the logs to [email protected]
please add a reference to this KB article or a small description of the issue.

I am having the same issue where I can not fix this problem. I have un-installed PRTG and then deleted what was left of the data folder. I re-booted my machine and downloaded a new version of PRTG to install. When it gets to the end and starts the service, it tells me:
PRTG Webserver could not be started properly Could Not start webserver for http://127.0.0.1:Structural error in xml file, 16 open items
I have looked for the webserver log file where you said it should be and there is no Logs file. I have an install log and that is the only log file. The entire path you gave is different from what I am seeing.
I have changed ports and assigned an IP address. All that does is change the error to list the new IP.
What can I do? It worked fine up until a reboot of my machine.
Running Win 7 Pro with all service packs and updates as of 2/11/15

Please do send us your PRTG System Logfiles to [email protected], then we can investigate this.
This can be done via the "Contact Support" ribbon in the lower right corner of the web interface.
Please enter this ticket's case number when submitting the Bundle.
In case the web interface is not accessible, please open the "PRTG Administration Tool" and send us the Log Files from the tab card "Logs and Infos".
