What's going wrong?
The following environment variables are not respected on Windows while they are on other platforms:
PM2_DAEMON_RPC_PORT
PM2_DAEMON_PUB_PORT
PM2_INTERACTOR_RPC_PORT
Non-privileged (Admin) user accounts on Windows cannot write to named pipes which can disrupt some PM2 operations under such accounts. By specifying a port the problem is sidestepped, but currently that can't be done as the values are overwritten right after assigning from ENV.
How could we reproduce this issue?
Run on Windows and the relevant observe config values.
