prunsrv.exe //US// always returns exit code 6, even if successful
-----------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: DAEMON-106
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAEMON-106
             Project: Commons Daemon
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.0.1
         Environment: Windows
            Reporter: Joel Klein
            Priority: Minor


When using tomcat6.exe from 
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tomcat/tc6.0.x/trunk/res/procrun/, the //US// 
command always returns 6:

tomcat6.exe //US//servicename --Startup=auto

returns exit code 6 even though the command successfully changed the service 
Startup Type to auto.

>From the source code, it looks as if docmdUpdateService just never sets the 
>variable rv to TRUE anywhere, and the only return statements are "return 
>FALSE" (when the code can't get a handle to the service) and return rv at the 
>end.

When we invoke this from our software's installer, we'd like to be able to 
check the exit code and trust whether it means success or failure, but as it 
stands we have to not check the exit code or check things other than the exit 
code to test for success.
