Hi
I have a service installed, but I want to programatically set it to 'Manual'
startup, rather than 'Automatic'.
I cannot do this with 'System.service Process.Service Installer()' as I don't
actually install the service (MSDE does), but I want it set to Manual, and
my app starts and stops it.
I can Start and Stop the service, but need it to be Manual, and not
Automatic
Any help appreciated
Thanks

The ServiceInstalle r class has a property called 'StartType' this defaults
to 'Manual'. Is this being set to 'Automatic' somewhere in your code?

Hi,
You can use the ServiceInstalle r class to set the same. For this, you need
to do the following (You could have done some of them already)
1. Reference the System.ServiceP rocess.ServiceI nstaller. Do this by using
"Add/Remove Item" option from right clicking on the "Components " tab in
ToolBox. Find the "ServiceInstall er". Select it.
2. Drag the ServiceInstalle r and name it (lets say "testinstaller" ). You
will see an entry in the "Component Designer generated code" section in your
project.
3. Now in your install event, you can say, testinstaller.S tartType =
ServiceStartMod e.Manual.
You can see an example here... http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/csharpsvclesson2.asp
Hope this helps.

Hi Paul,
If you want to do it from code, after the service is installed you have to
change it in the registry , in
LOCAL_MACHINE\S ystem\\CurrentC ontrolSet\\Serv ices\\ change the Start value,
2 is auto , 3 is manual.
cheers,

Use the System.ServiceP rocess.ServiceC ontroller class. It allows
programmattic control of many service properties.

I am running the ASP.NET State service on 3 servers and one
workstation. I have set the startup type to 'Automatic' on all
instances.
After rebooting any of these machines, the service does not start and
when I check the startup type it has been chaanged back to manual.
When I start the servie manually it runs fine, so I don't think that
there's a permissions issue.

Hello,
My c# based windows service takes a while to dispose. I have to release

Every now and then, when I stop the service from the Services applet, it

What would be a good way to check programmatically whether a service was
running?
We have a service that dies periodically and I need to check to see if this
service is running. I know how to check to see if the status is in stopped
or running mode. But that doesn't tell me if it is actually running.
I need to know this so that if it happens I can programmatically start the
same service on another machine.
