I have a windows service with a Timer which runs just fine on my Development
machine, but the "timer_elapsed" is not being executed on the Production
machine.
same .exe on both machines.
i'm writing events to the event log, so i know the dev machine is fine, but
not the production machine.
what gives? 5 1716
caulker,
What kind of timer are you using?

caulker,
Are you using the one under the Windows Forms tab? If you are, then
this won't work, because it depends on windows messages, which are not
enabled in services unless you check that it can interact with the desktop.
Make sure that the timer is the one from the System.Timers namespace,
and it should work.

yep, I'm using
private System.Timers.Timer timer1;
and this works just fine on the Dev machine, just not on the Production
machine.
the windows service is running just the timer event is not being
triggered...
very puzzling...
thanks...

Are you sure that that's the problem?
Could it not be that your program doesn't have Event Log access on the
other machine?
