Robin, is this going to install SlimTray as well or just Slimserver as a
service? I frequently use the start/stop slimserver from the tray.
Would the new procedure be to use a cmd prompt and type "net start
slimserver" (as you wrote) or "net stop slimserver"?
This just installs Slimserver. I can't test it at the moment, but I
suspect you just need to run "perl -w platforms/win32/SlimTray.pl" to
get the SlimTray app running.
One thing I did note is that SlimTray looks for a service called
"slimsvc" not "slimserver" so you would need to either:
a. create the service with the name slimsvc instead of slimserver
b. modify SlimTray.pl to use the service named "slimserver".
I think the optimal solution would be to use slimsvc as the service name
and for SlimTray.pl to be modified to take the name of the service as a
command-line option, using slimsvc as the default.
The procedure to start/stop the service would be to either use the GUI
service manager tool or, as you say, to use a cmd prompt:
Start service: net start slimserver
Stop service: net stop slimserver
R.
