Run a Windows Service as a console app

阅读更多关于 Run a Windows Service as a console app

问题 I want to debug a Windows service but it pops an error message saying Cannot start service from the command line or a debugger. A windows service must be installed using installutil.exe and then started with the Server explorer, windows services Administrative tools or the NET start command.

EG: C:\installutil -i c:\path\to\project\debug\service.exe Then

Run batch file as a Windows service

阅读更多关于 Run batch file as a Windows service

In order to run one application, a batch file has to be kicked off (which does things like start Jetty, display live logs, etc). The application will work only if this batch file is running. I am hence forced to have this batch file running and not logout from the Windows server. Can this batch file be run as a service? I am experimenting with one of the suggestions from a similar question . NSSM is totally free and hyper-easy, running command prompt / terminal as administrator: nssm install "YourCoolServiceNameLabel" then a dialog will appear so you can choose where is the file you want to

I have console application and would like to run it as Windows service. VS2010 has project template which allow to attach console project and build Windows service.

Maybe someone could suggest class library or code snippet which could quickly and easily transform c# console application to service? VladV I usually use the

阅读更多关于 Delphi 2009: How to communicate between Windows service & desktop application under Vista?

问题 How can a desktop application communicate with a Windows service under Vista/Windows2008/Windows7? The application needs to send small strings to the service and receive string responses back. Both are written in Delphi 2009. (Please provide sample code also) 回答1: The way to go is named pipes, you'll probably have to take a look at the communication across different Integrity levels.

How can I restart a windows service programmatically in .NET

阅读更多关于 How can I restart a windows service programmatically in .NET

问题 How can I restart a windows service programmatically in .NET? Also, I need to do an operation when the service restart is completed. 回答1: Take a look at the ServiceController class. To perform the operation that needs to be done when the service is restarted, I guess you should do that in the Service yourself (if it is your own service). If you do not have access to the source of the service, then perhaps you can use the WaitForStatus method of the ServiceController . 回答2: This article uses

windows service startup timeout

阅读更多关于 windows service startup timeout

问题 Is there a way to set a different value for service startup timeout per service? I can change it using the ServicesPipeTimeout registry key, but it\'s per machine (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/824344). At the moment the only thing I thought about was to do all the time-consuming startup actions in a different thread. 回答1: It's good practice to finish starting your service as fast as possible. So, during the start state, do only what you absolutely need to acknowledge it started

Install a .NET windows service without InstallUtil.exe

I have a standard .NET windows service written in C#. Can it install itself without using InstallUtil? Should I use the service installer class? How should I use it? I want to be able to call the following: MyService.exe -install And it will have the same effect as calling: InstallUtil MyService.exe Marc Gravell Yes, that is fully possible (i.e. I do exactly this); you just need to reference the right dll (System.ServiceProcess.dll) and add an installer class... Here's an example: [RunInstaller(true)] public sealed class MyServiceInstallerProcess : ServiceProcessInstaller { public
