----------------------------------------------------------- From: raagz Message 8 in Discussion Hi , I assume that you have created an Exe file as output ( if not make the output as an exe file). After you build the solution in VS.NET you can find the exe file generated in the bin folder. To install the exe file (windows service exe ) as a service you need to follow these steps. 1.from VS.NET command prompt ( START ->PROGRAMS ->VS.NET->VS.NET Commandprompt ) 2.go to the directory where the exe is generated using VS.NET 3.in the prompt type installutil FileName.exe 4. you should see the message " service is installed successfully" 5.Then run services from the Start->Run 6. you can find the Service you have created in the list of services. 7. RightClick on the service and select Start. 8. That's it you have started your service.

This method should set things ' in motion so your service can do its work. MakeURLRequest() End Sub Protected Overrides Sub OnStop() ' Add code here to perform any tear-down necessary to stop your service. End Sub Private Sub MakeURLRequest() Dim client As New WebClient Dim bytedata As Byte() Dim strURL As String strURL = "http://localhost/birthday/birthdaymail.aspx" bytedata = client.DownloadData(strURL) End Sub How to execute the windows service... It produces the following error message on execution. Cannot start service from the command line or a debugger. A Windows Service must first be installed (using installutil.exe) and then started with the ServerExplorer, Windows Services Administrative tool or the NET START command. How to go with this error? Thanx & Regards, Banu View other groups in this category. ----------------------------------------------------------- To stop getting this e-mail, or change how often it arrives, go to your E-mail Settings. http://groups.msn.com/bdotnet/_emailsettings.msnw Need help?
