There's two possible reasons for this:
1) You already have another SmartFoxServer running. This usually happens if you didn't pay attention in the installation process and allowed the server to run as Windows Service. If that's the case SFS PRO is already running and trying to run a 2nd instance will cause this error. Close the 2nd instance and try to connect the AdminTool, if it works you already have the server running.

2) You don't have file write permissions in the folder where you installed SFS. This is possible if you're logged in your Windows machine as a different user than "bastien856", which is the one who has write permissions.

Hi Lapo, I read your comment and I looked everywhere but nothing because I have that one server but when I turn it happen error message :/
and in my computer i have one account just "bastien856" and i have check permission on log file and all permission is true

Did you test what I suggested?
Try opening the AdminTool and connect to the server using the correct IP and port, even if you think is not running.

Does it log in?

Yeah, but that's not what I asked...
I just asked you to open the AdminTool and try to connect. If a server is already running you will be able to connect. Can you try that?

Windows 10 is fine. I have SFS PRO running on W10 and it works just fine.

i have start admintool and on connect i have :

My suggestion at this point is to try and install the server from scratch.
Maybe uninstall the previous version if you can (e.g. if you haven't customized it), otherwise you can try to install it in a separate folder under your user's directory.

Let us know.
