can you run in an elevated command prompt on the server "powercfg /requests" when the pi is on.
what does that say?
Can you see what files are open, in win seven you do this by right clicking my computer and select manage, then open files on the left, it shold tell you if the pi has a file open. Also check sessions.
Also you haven't installed the wol addon have you?
As t4 said we need the log from the pi.

I would also like to see WOL upon starting XBMC. I use Windows Home Server which i have to manually start up as i dont run it 24x7.
does not have to be complex, just a screen with a list of MAC addresses to wake up when XBMC starts up or starts when SMB share is accessed. etc etc.

Sorry for the github comment, i didn't followed the forum topic.
I'm going to test the pr now. Do i have to care about something in special besides the wake on lan function?
Update:
- The wakeonlan.xml gets created correctly by enabling the feature and/or adding sources.
- XBMC sends a magic packet if i try to access my shares and a progress dialog comes up
- It is not working for live-tv?
So far no crashes or any other hints of broken things

- in settings/system/power-saving there should be an option to "try to wake.." and when you enable it and exit from settings there should be a little notification popping up that mac-discovery was performed (only 1st time) ; check that it comes and that it is successful (your server must be running at this point for it to succeed)
- put server to sleep and then start xbmc. navigate to a share and observe that a progress-dialog pops up and spins while waiting for server to respond to ping
(we are particularly interested in knowing whether 'mac-discovery' and 'ping' is working for osx, those are the new platform-specific functions)
-please post xbmc.log so we can check what happened
thanks!

Great work T4_ravenbird. Thanks to you and our handful of testers we are finally close to getting this merged. If not this windows then the next.

The live TV settings has it's own wake on lan stuff. It uses some linux script or similar to do the wake. It would be nice to get that reworked to function with this WOA code. What I did is add my recording directory as a video source so it to can be woke with this code.

Brilliant, thanks!
Your test shows that much is working as expected but unfortunately the log also has this entry ;
21:08:12 T:2957651968 ERROR: Ping fail : status = 16384, errno = 3 : 'ping -c 1 -w 1 10.0.0.253'
21:08:16 T:2897361448 ERROR: Previous line repeats 702 times.
This means that the icmp-ping (default) does not work !
You could try the "tcp-ping" mode (see opening post) but I dont know which port numbers are useful with nfs like you have. (samba is 445 which is what I use in my setup, or 3306 with MySql )
Since icmp-ping fails I am afraid that will be a show-stopper

yep, that is a perfect sequence you got there ;
21:37:51 T:2897361448 NOTICE: WakeOnAccess [server] trigged by accessing : nfs://server/media/TV-Shows/
..
21:38:59 T:2897361448 NOTICE: WakeOnAccess sequence completed, server started
*
This is what we want, but in your previous log with icmp-ping we had ;
21:08:12 T:2897361448 NOTICE: WakeOnAccess [server] trigged by accessing : nfs://server/media/TV-Shows/
..
21:10:32 T:2897361448 NOTICE: WakeOnAccess timeout/cancel while waiting for response
