Eroor while running a .net exe from windows service

2 New Member
Hi!,

I am developing a windows service using vb.net in VB 2005.Through the service I am trying to run a exe.While starting service I am getting
the following error:


System.InvalidO perationExcepti on

An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.Inner Exception for details. The error is: Showing a modal dialog box or form when the application is not running in UserInteractive mode is not a valid operation. Specify the ServiceNotifica tion or DefaultDesktopO nly style to display a notification from a service application.

Please advice me..

Thanks & regards,
Monish

Greetings, you posted your question in the .NET Articles section while it belongs
in the .NET Forums section. The latter is for questions such as yours while the
first is just a repository of (useful?) articles. I'll move your question to the forum
section now.

kind regards,

Jos

I have developed a service which exposes a COM object. This service is running perfect on Windows 2000 Server and Windows 2000 Professional under the SYSTEM account. When the service is installed on Windows 2003 Server, the application works well, and the COM object can be called just as it's meant to be. The service is however running under the IWAM account (I know strange account to run a service). However, after a while (from...

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.

Hello, I have a problem with our OnlineBackupService.exe. This is a Windows Service which is built in .Net 1.1 and basically grabs files from the file system and will try to upload them using WebServices. The service is installed by default using LocalSystem account. The exact problem is that sometimes this service is not allowed to resolve the target webservice. This results in the following exception:

Anybody have any ideas other than setting some flag values in the launching application. We can't do that because...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

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,...
