I found the solution. Deleted the assp.cfg file. Reinstalled with Win32 daemon. Ran the addservice.pl file. Started service using addservice.pl file.
Sorry to bother anyone. (I had two glasses of wine so that MUST have done the trick. ________________________________ From: David Hiergesell <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, June 2, 2009 11:43:25 PM Subject: [Assp-user] Fresh Windows 2000 Install - Service Won't Start Hello, I have completed installation of ASSP on Windows 2000 Server. I am able to get the interface to come up with "perl assp.pl" and check the box to run this as a service. When I register this as a service using either the "perl assp.pl -i" command or the perl addservice.pl (pathway) command I can see the service in control panel services list, but it will not start giving me timeout message. 1. I modified the assp.cfg file "runasservice=" to "runasservice=1" to no avail. 2. I've tried the "addservice.pl" file as well as the "assp.pl" file to no avail. 3. I've tried it with the assp interface running. Without it running. 4. I've installed and uninstalled a dozen times rebooting between. 5. I've modified the pathway in the Image File registry value. In addition, when I go back to start the ASSP interface with the "perl assp.pl" command, I have to delete the config file in order to get it to start up or it gives me an error message that I'm trying to write a value to a read-only value in the script. (Low growl...) My head did come out of the monitor thankfully without major injury, but I'm stumped here. I am sure I did the install correctly, but I'm no perl expert. I am about 12 hours into this install with dozens of reboots, uninstalls, directory changes etc. I should have flunked out of college and smoked pot for all the good I'm doing with this. Please forgive me my errant ways. I put the sweat equity in on this before asking. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ OpenSolaris 2009.06 is a cutting edge operating system for enterprises looking to deploy the next generation of Solaris that includes the latest innovations from Sun and the OpenSource community.
