I am using (completely against my will) NT 4.0 workstation and am attempting to install a Windows service I wrote in VB.NET. support.microsoft.com has an article on how to install a .NET service, and it shows under the requirements that you have to have win2k. I can't find any other documentation on windows services that say this is required.
Anyway, I install my service on my NT machine, and that second, the event log starts filling up with the following three errors : 1. The library file "" specified for the ".NETFramework" service could not be opened. Performance data for this service will not be available. Status code is data DWORD 0. 2. The library file "" specified for the ".NET CLR Networking" service could not be opened. Performance data for this service will not be available. Status code is data DWORD 0. 3. The library file "" specified for the ".NET CLR Data" service could not be opened. Performance data for this service will not be available. Status code is data DWORD 0. These errors stop as soon as I uninstall the service. Also, I can start and stop the service, but it doesn't do what it is supposed to. Is win2k required for .NET written services? If you don't know, no big deal. I am assuming at this point that win2k is required, so I'm kinda screwed.
