How to install service in Vista

=?Utf-8?B?Sm9hY2hpbQ==?=

I have made a Windows Service and I have read that you should use
installutil.exe to register the service. However, no service appears in the
Control Panel Administrative Tools Services when I run installutil. How
can I install my service?

I get one message when using installutil that I don't know if it is an error
message or not:

"No public installers with the RunInstallerAtt ribute.Yes attribute could be
found in the C:\... assembly.
Remove InstallState file because there are no installers."

What does that mean?

It means that it could find code that should do the installing.

Hello Joachim,

Check that u use installutil.exe from the latest installed FW folder "WINDOWS\Micros oft.NET\Framewo rk\v2.0.50727\"
and not the 1.1

You need to have an Installer class in your service in order for Installutil
to be able to "install it". Look at a sample service for the code you need.

Short instruction: Install PHP (ISAPI) on Vista (IIS7)

Hi, I am one of those questionable people that started with Vista (Home Premium). Not because I think it is a ready/steady OS, but partly out of curiousity, and partly because I needed to work on an old project that happens to run on IIS6/W2000/MSSQL7, but my W2000 machine couldn't handle the size of the database in question anymore. :-( My new Vista machine is 5 years younger and is a lot faster, so I started to figure out how to use...

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

by: Hystou | last post by:

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
