What happens when you try to login with this user-account?

Open the PDK Help and read under PerlSvc->"What is PerlSvc?". Hint: Search 
for UserName.

You can add a *value* named "DependOnService" under

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\YOURSERVICE

It seems to normally be a REG_MULTI_SZ type value, but maybe it works with
a normal REG_SZ value too; you may want to try it.

I've added an enhancement request to the PDK bug database for letting
PerlSvc handle this for you:

http://bugs.activestate.com/PerlDevKit/show_bug.cgi?id=23669

Cheers,

Dave Roth's Win32::Daemon module can create services which work with 
dependencies (available at www.roth.net).

How about an alternate method?

Install Autoexnt from the NT resource kit.
Set your service to start manually. 
Create an Autoexnt.bat that waits until the database service is started
before doing a "net start YourServicehere".

I have a service, that I've created with PerlSvc. Occasionally, it
doesn't 
start up correctly after a reboot, and I suspect that it's because it 
accesses a database, and the database server may not have started 
completely when my service is started. Under Windows, one service can be

"dependent" on another service, so that services are started in the 
required order. However, the PerlSvc documentation gives no way for me
to

That should be 'our' instead.  I haven't checked if there are other
problems with your script.

For help with Perl Dev Kit components, I would suggest that you use the
pdk mailing list.
