services created by _CreateService from ServiceControl.au3

Hi,

my scripts always fail to run whenever i want to run it as service... it appears because of Windows requires feedback from programs that run as service, to tell Windows, that the service is running well now, so windows won't shut it back(becuase any service that fails to run, will be shutted down by the system)... so, what function on script to tell windows that the service is now running?

Hi,

Like you said, services in WinNT and above require communication with the Service Control Manager (SCM). While I don't know how to do this, if possible, from within AutoIt, you can use a Microsoft tool called SrvAny.exe. It is included with the Resource Kit.

Regards.
