Windows服务的System.ExecutionEngineException

Question

I have a windows service accesing other project (no matter what, cause It doesn't even start)

The thing is that I have a System.ExecutionEngineException while starting the service (in this code)

protected override void OnStart(string[] args)
{
    const IConfig config = null;
    _weatherService = new WeatherService();
    _weatherService.setup(config);
    _weatherService.init();
    _weatherService.start();
}

I'm in a windows XP and .NET 3.5 (No, I'm not from the past) and I can't even start the service from a Console Application. Do you know how to solve it? (If you need any more info, please just ask for it)

Thank you so much guys ☺

Maybe try disabling concurrent garbage dumping -- seen here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/at1stbec(v=vs.90).aspx

If you're program is performance heavy, then concurrent garbage collection's memory movement could throw this exception.

Why does concurrent GC sometimes cause ExecutionEngineException (per MSDN)?
