Hi, thank you all for your hints and helps. I have now a working solution.
But there is still a little problem and as I investigate in services and threads I like to see it running. If the socket-connection operates in the local network everything works fine. But if it operates over a VPN-connetion it post the following error message: size = q.recv(HDR_SZ) socket.error: (10035, 'The socket operation could not complete without blocking' If I use the first version of the programm without running as service it works over VPN too. So it seems to be a time problem. The socket doc declares that sockets start with 'blocking' as the default mode. I tried to use setblocking and settimeout in various ways but that doesn't change anything. What can I do examine the problem further ? regards, Jürgen ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through IMP: http://horde.org/imp/ _______________________________________________ Python-win32 mailing list Python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
