I have this simple program for testing: *********** SYS(2340, 1)
DECLARE Sleep IN kernel32 integer delay FOR lnCount = 1 TO 5 Sleep(2000) lcAlias = 'test' + STRTRAN(TIME(), ':', '') CREATE TABLE (lcAlias) FREE (ff c(4)) USE IN (lcAlias) ENDFOR ***********
It works as an executable. I added that program to services using that: instsvr servicetest \srvany.exe
It added my service.
Then I modified registry (Article Q137890)
I am trying to start my service and it does not start. Error #1053.
Any help, please? I am using WInXP Pro, VFP7.
I've never done any window services but I've work a lot with COM/COM+ and debugging can be a pain in the rear. What I do is use the STRTOFILE() command to get a log of error as they occur. For example:
Create Table (lcAlias) Free (ff c(4))
lnErrors = Aerror(laErr) If lnError > 0 for lni = 1 to lnErrors STRTOFILE(laErr(lnErrors,1),'c:\temp\error.log',1) STRTOFILE(laErr(lnErrors,2),'c:\temp\error.log',1) STRTOFILE(laErr(lnErrors,3),'c:\temp\error.log',1) STRTOFILE(laErr(lnErrors,4),'c:\temp\error.log',1) STRTOFILE(laErr(lnErrors,5),'c:\temp\error.log',1) STRTOFILE(laErr(lnErrors,6),'c:\temp\error.log',1) STRTOFILE(laErr(lnErrors,7),'c:\temp\error.log',1) next lni EndIf ...
