"So little to do, and so much time to do it in...
No, wait - reverse that." - Willie Wonka
Well, I'm fighting a tight deadline and I'm having trouble with
Win32::Service. I'm trying to write a program that will check
services, stop them, change their account password, and then
start them back up. I've got all the logic, but this Module
doesn't see to work right. First off, it reports some services
that are Stopped as Running, and others that are Running it
says are Stopped. And the big kicker is that I can't, for the
life of me, figure out how to Stop or Start a Service. The
commands don't seem to work. $? returns a 0 (fail code),
and $! returns nothing (it's a blank line.)
I have one day left to complete this assignment. Please, can
someone help me out? After some of what I've been reading
today, I'm wondering if I have a bad module. Here are the
data I could find for you:
perl, v5.6.0, Build 613
Win32-Service.zip, created 6/8/00
Service.pm, created 3/14/00
Service.pm version 0.04, written by Douglas Lankshear and Gurusamy
Sarathy
Is it acceptable for me to e-mail one or both of these guys, directly?
Can or should I try to update either my Perl or my Service.pm?
Thanks, all.
