Hi there,
My console app runs fine from windows explorer or from the command line.
I created a service but it fails to start giving error 1053 (service did not respond).
Even if it fails it appears in the task manager.
After failing the service keeps a “starting” status until I kill the process.
App info:
- dev on OSX with Xojo 2014r2.1
- tested on a Win7 x64 parallel box
- app connect to 2 databases (sqlite using cubeSQL and MSSQL using MBS plugin) and writes logs to a TextOutputStream
- app (should) run continuously, uses a timer to start a processing cycle every 60 seconds
Rem:
- when the app is started from the command line or the explorer it uses +/- 6Mb memory and writes immediately to the logfile
- when the service fails to start, I can see it in the task manager but it uses > 20Mb memory and does not write to the file
- I tried running the service with a “local system account” and with a specific administrator account
Any hint or idea is welcome !
Thanks,
Olivier
