Hello,
I have created Windows Services before using C# and have had no problems.
Not to mention, the one I currently am having problems with worked great for
the first 3 days. Then I added some more SQL code and went to test it again
and now whenever I start the Service up I get the following error message...
The <xxx> service on local computer started and then stopped...
I tried a few things like removing the new code and such without any
success. I even wound up creating a brand new Project as a Windows Service
and all this one does at the moment is wait for a timer to elapse in 10
seconds and then it will write an entry to the log file. I also have it
logging at OnStart and OnStop. None of the logging happens.
Since there is really no code other than event log stuff in the new project,
I have to assume it is some other something that is halting my service. this
is really killing my time and any solution would be Greatly appreciated.

For a little more information:
I just took the slimed down version of the Windows Service to another
machine. Did the InstallUtil and started it. It started and did the logging
as expected. I then manually stopped it and all went as it should.
Nothing my event logs seems to point to anything that is of any use. The
application log has nothing in it when I attempt to start it. The System has
two events (7035 - Successfully sent a start control) then right after that
is (7036 - entered the stopped state.)
I tried to run it in Safe Mode but it would not let me start that service in
Safe Mode.
PLEASE help

Well I figured out what the problem was. Oddly enough, the debugger wasn't
coming until more recently (don't believe I changed anything.) I did look at
the message that was coming up in the debugger and it was that the Log File
was full.
I simply changed it from the default of overwrite every 7 days to overwrite
as needed (and changed it to 1024) and EVERYTHING WORKS AGAIN.
Uuugh, what a stupid default setting. At least since problems occur when
it's full.

Thank you very much for posting you're solution on here. I've been struggling with the same problem for ages now and that's sorted it.
Cheers!

We created a Windows Service with C#. The service will start OK on
computers that are a member of a domain, but when we try to start it on a
server that is configured for a workgroup we get the following error in the
event log:
Event ID: 7001
Description: The {Service Name}service depends on the Net Logon service
which failed to start because of the following error:
The service has returned a service-specific error code.

Hi,
I just wrote a test Windows Service that creates a text file on startup
(please see my code below). The file is never created.
Protected Overrides Sub OnStart(ByVal args() As String)
Dim swLog As StreamWriter = File.CreateText("C:\myLog.txt")
swLog.WriteLine("My Windows Service has just started.")
swLog.Close() : swLog.Flush()
End Sub

C# .NET 2.0
I've got a Windows Service that works exactly as I expect it to. However,
it does rely on a few Configuration settings. If the customer doesn't
configure it correctly, the service shouldn't start.
So I've put in some try...catchs, but what I'm not sure how to do is not
allow the service to start. If attempted to start with the NET START
command, throwing an exception keeps the service from starting, but the

Hello,
I have created a windows service in C# that watches a folder, then moves

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.

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,...
