I've created a Windows Service in vb.net that is set up to run automatically,
but it never starts during system startup. I can start it manually, but I
need the service to start without any user interaction. When I originally
installed the service, I had to attempt the start twice as well from the
Service Manager. So, for some odd reason, it has to be told twice to start.
I get the following errors in the System log at startup:
Timeout (30000 milliseconds) waiting for the LU/LW Mail Service service to
connect.
- and -
The LU/LW Mail Service service failed to start due to the following error:
The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely
fashion.
I'm not sure what's causing the service to time out like that, and I don't
know where to start looking to fix it.
Any ideas?

We'll need code to help with the problem.

Does your service depend on any other services being started first? If
so, you need to set your service up so it knows to wait for those
services.
Nope. It's completely stand-alone. I posted my code in reply to Izzy for
reference.

Hi everyone,
I need to make a service that monitors a directory for changes in the files
contained within it. I have two questions:
1. I'm going to be using a FileSystemWatcher object to do the monitoring -
but do I need to somehow involve another thread to allow the service to do
other stuff as well, or is another thread created automatically when the
FileSystemMonitor object is created?

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

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

I have a Service which runs OK, but I'm abviously not starting it properly.
In my OnStart event I commence a long running process which polls a database
table and performs various processing. Since this polling loop is entered
synchronously from OnStart, basically the OnStart event doesn't terminate
for the life of the program. This doesn't give the SCM the correct feedback
that the service has started properly. Consequently, the SCM throws...

can I fix this?

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,...
