ASPX : ACCESS denied when start/stop windows services

[SenthilVel]

Hi All

i do need to control my windows services using aspx pages.

I used the System.ServiceProcess.ServiceController namespace ....
this is working fine when i run my code in a windows application .

But when i use the code to start /Stop the service in a aspx page i get an
error like:

Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the
current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information
about the error and where it originated in the code.

Exception Details: System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: Access is denied


so what must i do in settings or in permission levels so that i can run the
service start/stop code in ASPX pages??

can any one explain what to do in detail..

You can use impersonation to run ASP.NET under an account that has
permission to interact with windows services.
Here's more info:

Hi Steve
i added the impersonate="true" in my config files.
but still i am not able to access the services from aspx pages.
it says " permission denied".

Give it a specific username and password to use.
For testing, give it your username and password so it will run with your
security privileges.
