Sorry for such a daft question.
Ive been following some tutorials on creating windows services. Ive not done
them before.
In my original debuggable windows form application, I create my worker
classes. The classes 'run' themselves using several threads and only stop
when the form is closed.
Now I've used these worker classes in the service application. When I try to
run my service manually, I am given a message that the service stopped
itself. I'm not sure if there's a problem with my code yet, but it led me
to wonder if the following code would just lead to my object being created
followed immediately by the function exiting and the service finishing. Is
there anything I need to do to keep driving a service application?
private MMonitor Monitor = null;
protected override void OnStart(string[] args)
{
Monitor = new MMonitor();
} 3 1639
Hi Claire,
From the debugger stand point I think that it will treat your service
application like any other application. When you register the application
as a service it stays memory resident until it receives a service stop event
from the SCM. When in debugger mode there is no SCM to issue the events so
treat it like any other applicaiton. Now speaking for MMonitor, is this a
threaded class that you created, for debugging purposes if you could
implement a "wait" signal so that you can do something like:
Monitor.WaitFor ();
Then your main service thread will idle until the Monitor object is
completed with its task and stay memory resident (not terminated).

Hi Claire,
In order to test what is going on add your initialization code on the
OnContinue, so run the service and the pause it, attach your debugger and the
put a breakpoint on OnContinue, Press resume and you can see what is going on.
hope this helps to solve it

OnStart is meant to initialize you service and to start your service task on
another thread. Your service will be flagged as "failed to start in a timely
fashion" if you don't return within 30 seconds after the service start
command.
I'm unclear on what you are doing in your MMonitor constructor, but it looks
like you simply return, as a consequence you return from OnStart without
having created a service thread.

Hi all,
I think this is a longshot, but is there a technique for programmatically
run a webpage?
Let's say one of our vendors has a page that we go to daily to pick up some
files. Each time, the user clicks a link, that brings up a file dialog
prompting for a local name to download to and OK's. This process is
repeated for a number of files.

I have a windows service where I would like to launch a script (bat, cmd,
vbs, exe, etc) from the service. This script should execute in the
background and not require any input from the user (i.e. not interact with
the desktop).
I have been looking at System.Diagnostics.Process.Start() to launch this
script.
Here are my questions based on this.
1.) Is this the right namespace to be using?

In the Application_OnStart event in global.asax, my code calls an AlertService which creates a System.Timers.Timer() object. So this service doesn't actually run in conjunction with a specific aspx page, apparently. When the timer's Elapsed event handler fires, it calls some other classes I have written. These classes output some Trace statements that you can view if an aspx page calls them, but I can't seem to figure out where the Trace...

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.

Hi;
How are we supposed to handle this. It appears that this must be run on a
system for an ASP.NET app to run. On WinXP we are finding that the user
ASPNET does not exist until this is run.
However, running this impacts all existing ASP.NET apps and sets the default
..NET for all new ones. So if we run this we can screw up all the ASP.NET apps
already on a system.
