Prevent service from stoppingHi,
I have a service which is only a server for some objects the user can instanciate and call. Right now, the service starts and then stops automaticaly. The only line of code I added is in the OnStart event and is "RemotingConfiguration.Configure(configfile)". So I guess the service is stopping because it has nothing better to do? Is there a setting I can set to prevent it from stopping? will I have to start a loop that will run until the OnStop event runs in order to keep the service alive? Thanks ThunderMusic Did you try changing the service startup type to "Manual". ?
Thanks.

If you are using the default generated code for the service this should include a call to System.ServiceProcess.ServiceBase.Run in its Main. This keeps the service running until it is explicitly stopped. The usual reason for a service mysteriously stopping is an exception (which doesn't show because services don't have a UI by default).

initialization etc. You would typically start a thread there (ThreadStart for some method you run) that runs until some event happens, you trigger that event in OnStop(). -- Show quotePhil Wilson [MVP Windows Installer] ---- "ThunderMusic" <NOdanlatSPAM@hotmaildotcom> wrote in message news:uCW8fTvFGHA.740@TK2MSFTNGP12.phx.gbl... > Hi, > I have a service which is only a server for some objects the user can > instanciate and call. > > Right now, the service starts and then stops automaticaly.

Onstart is only the initializer, not the worker - i.e. if you loop in onstart, you will get an error that the service did not respond in a timely fashion... on onstop method set the run_flag to false and release resources. Did you get a reply to your question?
I have a similar problem to solve.  |
