This is a repost from CLR, doesn't seem like there is much activity over
on that list. This isn't really all too advanced though, so I apologize
in advance. ;)
Using the system.ServiceProcess.ServiceController I'm getting some odd
values back.
Basically if I pull up a list of services on a remote machine, there are
several services that consistently report the wrong status back. Some
others however report correctly.
For instance.... I do:
If myService.Status <> ServiceControllerStatus.Running Then
Throw New Exception("Service was not running")
End If
If I run that for the service "Server", which is running, it throws an
exception.
If I run for "Alerter" it reports correctly that it is running.
Checking "Computer Browser" also throws an exception even though it too is
running.
Anyone know of any rhyme or reason for what is going on here? On the
remote machine I am a full administrator. Just using the Services MSC
console I can pull up the list of all the services on the remote machine
and view statuses and/or start and stop them just fine.
Any thoughts?
