Creating A Service

[Merrik 0]

Hi,

I could use some help creating a service. This is what I tried - see below. I also read:

How do you register the Service so it shows up under Services?

Autoit

#include "Services.au3"

While 1

If @WDAY = 2 Then

MsgBox(16, "Hello")

EndIf

WEnd

/autoit

Yeah I did. Still stumped

Could you please give more information?

Do you get any error message?

If you start service.msc do you see the Autoit_service?

Is it started?

Does the service allow interaction with the desktop?

It's easier to help you if we have enough information!

I really appreciate your help on this. I created the script you see above, just to learn. I thought that by including the #include "Services.au3" was all I needed.

I compiled the script and even tried the -l from teh command line. I'm new to this and I ralize there are some steps I'm missing.

Please have a look at the example script provoided on the site. It shows what has to be done when you code your own service.

Compile it, run the exe with flag -i to install the service, start the service.

Update: Service is working great.
