Hi

I've created a windows service and it is set to run under local system
account. But after its installed and after reboot when I check in the
services its still sitting there and have not automatically started ?
but next to it the start mode does say 'automatic' instead of manual.

so how I get it to start after every reboot ?

Thanks
Tom

Guess it failed to start early in the boot process. What exactly are doing
during start-up? Aren't you writing a Service start message into the
eventlog?

hi, if it did not start you should get a log in the event log, did you check
that?

also , what if you try to start it manually, you get any error ?

if not,what you do in the on_start, maybe you are trying to use some other
service that is not running yet


cheers,
