Please help me understand service dependencies and service Groups. Scenarios: Service B (WcfServiceHost) depends on Service A (LogService). Service A fails which stops Service B. The recovery restarts service A, will it restart Service B? Also, if service A fails which stops service B, will the recovery settings apply to service B so will it restart automatically? Or does B regard the stop a normal event because of the dependency relationship? If I put my services into a group, does that better meet my needs to keeping everything running? Code:
<ServiceInstall Id="ServiceInstaller" Type="ownProcess" Vital="yes" Name="WcfServiceHost" DisplayName="WcfService Host" Description="Expose interactions with the WcfService." Start="auto" Account="LocalSystem" ErrorControl="normal"> <ServiceDependency Id="LogService"/> <util:ServiceConfig ServiceName="WcfServiceHost" FirstFailureActionType="restart" SecondFailureActionType="restart" ThirdFailureActionType="restart" RestartServiceDelayInSeconds="5" ResetPeriodInDays="1" /> </ServiceInstall> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
