Hi,

I have occasionally ran into an issue when James service fails to start upon system reboot due to its dependency on a database server, and the database just being a little bit slow to start...

The standard cure for this trouble is to register service dependencies, so the system could arrange for the right boot sequence. By the moment I've got this issue fixed for me, but it might be a good idea to have an arrangement for dependencies as a standard option when registering the service with the wrapper.

My registry patch is appended below. Unfortunately it is slightly opaque, as the Registry value for dependencies is stored as hex. I have registered two dependencies: for TCP/IP subsystem and for the database server. It is quite common also to register a dependency on AFD for similar services, but frankly I have no idea if it is really necessary...

Please kindly share your ideas...

Regards,
Sergey
