Stop/Start A Native Service With VB6
I am trying to get my vb6 app to stop and restart a windows native service (dns).
I have the NTSvc.ocx, but I cannot seem to get it to stop or start a service other than teh one it installs.
All I need to do is stop the DNS service, restart is and then check the status of the DNS service to make sure it is running.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance...

Start Or Stop A Windows Service
Is there a way to start and stop a service throug API calls

I would like to do so in a setup kit for the web service

I do not want to use WMI as I do not want to install it on NT systems if it is not necessary - however if it is NT server with IIS then there may be a partial version installed. does this handle starting and stopping services

Thankyou

A Script To Stop A Service
Using VB6 is there a way I have can have a file or service removed from memory at a certain time that I specify.

Controlling Service Stop {C#}
I got a service running in the background. It checks for xml files in a directory. Whenever a new file is present, the service validates the xml, and if the xml is valid, insert the data into a database.

After a while of testing, I figured weird results randomly occur if i stop the service while it's working. This is actually what i expected, so I began a search on the web on how to prevent a service from stopping, before a loop is completed.

Maybe it's my english, my way of using search engines or just me, but I could not find anything. Nothing about waiting till a loop is done before terminating the service. I though this was a quite "popular" thing for developers.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Start As A Service
Hi people !

I´ve developed a communications application with VB5.
The application runs fine in a PC with W2K OS.
The application starts with a .bat file with the syntax :

start /high c:ss7FWDCordobass7FWD.exe

where ss7FWD.exe is the application compiled.

This .bat file is in the start directory when the administrator logs in.

If there is a power supply failure, the application will not start when power supply returns, as the administrator is not logged in.
To solve this, I think, the application should start as a service within the W2K OS.

How do I do this, I mean, how do I configure in the W2K OS that this application should start as a service with high priority, and start as soon as the PC is powered on.

Thanks.

NT Service Won't Start
I am attempting to run a program as a service in VB and I get the error in the event log:

Timeout (30000 milliseconds) waiting for the SVC Server service to connect.

and

The SVC Server service failed to start due to the following error:
The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.

What am I missing... The start event code is as follows:

VB Code:
Private Sub NTService_Start(Success As Boolean) 'Start Event Request On Error GoTo ServiceError ServiceState = "Running" ServiceProcess = ServiceCode.StartProcess Success = True Exit SubServiceError: NTService.LogEvent svcMessageError, svcEventError, "[" & Err.Number & "] " & Err.DescriptionEnd Sub

The program loads as a service and I get the error when I attempt to start the service.

Start And Stop!
is ther a code that starts a program if i press f1...
but the program will NOT be in focus
thank you

Start Service Remotly

Start / Stop Bits?
I'm writing a VB app that communicates with a Motorola HC12 Board.

My only problem is when sending, the HC12 needs a a low start bit, 8 data bits, and a high stop bit. I've been able to transmit succesfully between two computers running the same application.

I've been sending a single character over the serial line, based upon the decimal equivalent inputted from a textbox (num). I've set up the communication to send as follows:

Private Sub btnOpenCom_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnOpenCom.Click
moRS232 = New Rs232()
Try
'// Setup parameters
With moRS232
.Port = miComPort
.BaudRate = Int32.Parse(txtBaudrate.Text)
.DataBit = 8
.StopBit = Rs232.DataStopBit.StopBit_1
.Parity = Rs232.DataParity.Parity_None
.Timeout = Int32.Parse(txtTimeout.Text)

End With
'// Initializes port
moRS232.Open()
'// Set state of RTS / DTS
moRS232.Dtr = (chkDTR.CheckState = CheckState.Checked)
moRS232.Rts = (chkRTS.CheckState = CheckState.Checked)
If chkEvents.Checked Then moRS232.EnableEvents()
chkEvents.Enabled = True
Catch Ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(Ex.Message, "Connection Error", MessageBoxButtons.OK)
Finally
btnCloseCom.Enabled = moRS232.IsOpen
btnOpenCom.Enabled = Not moRS232.IsOpen
btnTx.Enabled = moRS232.IsOpen
btnRx.Enabled = moRS232.IsOpen
btnCheck.Enabled = moRS232.IsOpen
End Try
End Sub

And when I finally send I simply use:

moRS232.Write(Chr(num))

What do I need to add to my code to include the necessary start and stop bits?

Network Service Take Too Long To Start
I have an app that runs as the shell program in an XPe system (basically my application has replaced the windows explorer.) At the very beginning of this app, I create a folder which I need to share to a network. So I create the folder and use net share to share it. OK no problem right?. wrong! The server service takes about 30-40 second before it starts, and if I try to use net share before then, I can't see the shared folder on a remote PC (appearently the net share fails). If however I put a delay of 40 second at the beginning of my app, and then create the folder and share it, it works.
Question(s)-
1. Is it normal that the network connection take 30-40 second before establishing?
2. Is there a way I can know if the connection is started?
3. Any comments, questions?
thanks for your time

Start An Application As A Service On Win98
Hello,

I'm just coded a security application and finished it off. All works fine indeed. But what I wanted to do is to run the application as a service instead of normal startup in the registry.

Is there a way to do this? If yes, could you give me some coding example?

Thanks before hand.

Start A Disabled Windows Service
Hello,

I would like to know if anyone has started a disabled service.

I have researched it, found you can start a stopped service, change the service startmode. but nothing on starting a disable service. also you can not change the startmode of a disabled service?

I know that Microsoft did this because of spammer and hackers, but I have aministrator account and password. I thought I could you a runas.

Thanks for any help, as I have been having trouble finding a solutions.

The service I would to enable is Windows Messenger, I have another vbs script that I can send message to workstation and have user call me.

I have been tasked to find or locate many workstations, I found this would be a way of doing it without installing anything on these workstations, when done I can again disable this service.
