in reply to Odd threads::shared behavior within a Win32::Daemon app

I don't have an answer to your question, but I would read the error message differently.

The fact that it is looking for the FETCH method suggests that it is still tied, but that it cannot find the code associated with the tie. Maybe that suggests something?

Are you calling StartService on your main thread or from with a another thread you started?
