Hi there:
I am trying to write a program to monitor certain processes on a
Windows NT 4.0 box without me needing to be logged in. I have
successfully created a python program that performs this task by
running as a service on Windows 2000, but it fails on Win NT due to a
missing procedure entry point "RegisterServic eCtrlHandlerExW " in
ADVAPI32.dll; this problem appears to be due to the servicemanager
module, and exists in all versions of the win32 package back to 161,
which is when the servicemanager module first appeared. I then tried
to run the program in an infinite loop using the "Scheduled Tasks"
service to spawn the program. If I am logged in when the program is
running, the program runs fine, although it creates a console on my
screen. However, if I am not logged in when the program kicks off, my
program dies on a call to win32pdh.EnumOb jectItems:
items, instances = win32pdh.EnumOb jectItems(None, None, \
'Process', win32pdh.PERF_D ETAIL_WIZARD)
My question: Why does win32pdh.EnumOb jectItems die when I'm not
logged in?
Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I'm trying to build a PHP page which launches another php script to be run
in the background. The web page should return immediately, while the
background script may run for 10 minutes or something. Unfortunately I'm
getting all kinds of weird behaviour..
In my main script I'm using exec() (also tried the other options) to start a
..bat file. This actually works, the batch file is launched and is able to
write something to disk.....

I understand that there was a problem with win32pdh.EnumObjectItems under
Windows XP but that recent versions of win32all corrected the problem. I
installed win32all build 156 (Python 2.2.3) and EnumObjectItems does indeed
work fine under XP but build 156 does not appear to work under Windows 2000
(Service Pack 4). Below is the Traceback:
>>> win32pdh.EnumObjectItems(None,None,"Process", -1)

James, Terry,
Thanks for your constructive comments.
Let's see if we can come down to the heart of the matter, it seems to me
these are fundamental issues relevant in any shell script.
I'm using a for loop to render a serie of images, which are
rendered | filtered | composited > to an image
The problem is that instead of a single pipeline 2 are being executed in

hey all,
i have a shared sub called WriteToErrorLog(msg as String) for obvious
purposes. How do i send that to a background thread? i'm stuck on the part
where thread.start executes a subroutine that doesn't accept parms (or can
it?) how do i get the message parm into the background sub?
2nd question: is this worth the trouble?
thanks,

Just noticed something rather annoying after upgrading my test box (a
Linux server running DB2 UDB v8 for LUW) to fixpak 11 (for reference it
was previously on fixpak 7).
In the past I've relied heavily on the ability to start multiple
long-running SQL scripts in the background and have them all run in
parallel. Unfortunately, it seems that somewhere between fixpak 7 and
fixpak 11 something has been fixed / broken which prevents more...

I've a PHP script that does some stuff, zips up some files, and starts
an FTP process.
I need it to do the Zip and FTP in the background and let the page
finish, otherwise the user could have that page sitting there loading
for 20 minutes while the FTP completes.
Here's what I have:

I have an application that needs to perform some background work, i.e.
Logging, wich must not block the main thread. How would I basically
design such a scenario? It is obvious that I should do that on an extra
thread but I think it is a bad idea to spawn a new thread everytime a
log-message is written and let it die once the message was written. But
how do I keep a thread alive and trigger the log-messages and pass the
string to that...

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,...

I am currently learning how to create and manage the different types of VPNs and I have a question about LAN-to-LAN VPNs.
