I’m getting some errors in the Windows Event Viewer (8.1 pro) after building lighting. Seem to happen when the Swarm agent starts up ONLY, as subsequent builds no errors get generated.
I get the following 5 errors show up:
Event ID: 2004 Source: PerfNet
Unable to open the Server service performance object. The first four bytes (DWORD) of the Data section contains the status code.
EventID: 1008 Source: Perflib

The Open Procedure for service “BITS” in DLL “C:\Windows\System32\bitsperf.dll” failed. Performance data for this service will not be available. The first four bytes (DWORD) of the Data section contains the error code.
I’d imagine that this is a problem with windows itself despite this error occurring after building lighting, here is a quote from the Windows Forums regarding this same issue:
Method 1:
Run System File Checker tool to missing or corrupted system files follow the steps from the following article below to run System File Checker: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833
Method 2:
Download and run a virus scan using Microsoft Safety Scanner from the following link to make sure the computer is free from any virus infection:
Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner expires 10 days after being downloaded. To rerun a scan with the latest anti-malware definitions, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.
Personally I recommend you run the system file checker (Method 1), it might help, and is a good thing to do every few months anyways. The 2nd method seems a bit pointless IMO, but there you go.
Its a fresh install of 8.1 Pro all updated and such as I like to do every few months, but I was getting these same errors on the previous install of 8.1 too??
EDIT: Just ran the System File Check and all was good…
Hmm… Well I’m afraid I can be of no further assistance , I wish you the best at sorting this out, and remember to post your solution here if you do figure it out so that this post may be of help to others with the same problem.
Thanks anyhow, will post solution if I find one. Hopefully someone already has.
Errors are definately generated when the SWARM AGENT starts. Once started I can rebuild and no errors, so I guess I can live with it for now. It doesn’t seem to be causing any problems at the moment.
Got rid of the errors by setting LocalPerformanceMonitoring in Swarm to FALSE. The ShowDeveloperMenu menu must be set to TRUE to get to this option though.
Not sure if its a good thing to do or not though =/
