I have a windows service written in .net framework 2.0. This service installs and runs perfectly fine on both XP and windows server 2003.We have a new 2008 box that we are migrating over to, so need to get this windows service up and running.When i try to 'start' the windows service on the 2008 machine, i get "Windows could not start the <service> service on local computer. Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion."I have searched everywhere looking for an answer, and all I could find was a fix attributed to .net framework 1.1 for this same error. That; however, is not applicable here, as the service was written in 2.0.

View 2 Repliesthe user of my application is able to run a diagnostic tool which is part of my application. This diagnostic tool searches every file on the computer, logs the names, and if the my program is able to then the file will be read.
My program has other uses as well. If the user wants to do something else in my program then i want the diagnostic code to run in the background. I don't want this code to prevent users from using other features of my application since the diagnostic search does take time.
How do i do this? Threading? A background worker? If the anwser is Threading which i am pretty sure it is, how do i set up a thread? My computer has 4 GB of RAM - 2GB & 2GB so i know i am able to do this smoothly.

I have a very useful vb6 program that reads ms access tables and loads the data onto a sql server database in the correct format. The customer maintains his data using the access tables. The vb6 program allows him to then select the data categories he wants and loads the data onto a sql server database online.I haven't used vb.net yet.

if user accept to update, it will download from server and install and restart application.
I have an application that will not load unless my local SQL Server is running on an Vista Home Premium machine. This started after a .Net 1 to .Net 4 conversion. I am using a sub main sub that is not being called (msgbox is not fired when entering the app), however, I see the app through taskmgr with increasing memory usage, but then the app is removed from the list. By design, if the program cannot locate a SQL Server a form pops up with a connection box to locate the SQL Server for the app. How it determines if it has a valid connection is the program looks for a connection string in the registry, then attempts to connect to it, however, none of this code executes because of the failure to enter into the sub main.The two machines I have tried the 32 bit app on
XP Pro: Failed / Using SQL Server 2008 Express
Windows 2003 Server: Works / Using SQL Server 2008 Developer
Both machines have .Net 4 Client Profile with Extended?
I usually use the developer fusion online code converter to convert code snippets from C# to VB.NET.It partially fails especially in LINQ or complex interface / inheritance scenarios. What are your experiences with other converters? Can you recommend another tool or website?

This is, of course, very buggy and causes a lot of violation errors etc. But that doesn't matter right now. How come the multi-threading way is so much faster than the regular routine? Is the processor not running on full speed with the first code, and is it working harder on the second?I find it weird to see this type of "threading performance increase", as if every single thread gets their own piece of processor speed allocated like it is a new process
What is my question? Well I believe its not a really hard one for those who know Basic.
Im trying to create a LogBook for an online server. What is the purpose of it, its simple. Right now we are doing it in a forum each one posting in a Log Thread, which game server they did the activity on, date, and time spent.
I have created the program so far, and what i would like to know, is if it would be possible that in the Texboxes i have, once you click submit, you will send the info to a Databse table.
How do i connect to the databse table?

I'm supporting an old vb.net program whose database it connected to was moved from SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2008. Is there a setting on SQL Server 2008 which will allow ODBC connections to access the database but not allow VB.NET to connect to it programmatically?

View 2 RepliesFirst off, my apologies for being a complete Newb! I have a SQL Express database that I use quite successfully to track my investments in several accounts. I built it myself, it's quite functional, and Im happy with it. The problem is that there are multiple account tables and updating them can be tedious in SQL Server, if multiple purchases and sales in multiple accounts have occurred in a month. Tedium can lead to errors¦

Is there any chance who can give me a sample code for client-server applications using vb.net 2008 express edition/professional edition?
1. What SQL Server should I use? Can we use SQL Server 2000 for Client-Server application as my back end database? and will use the vb.net 2008 express edition as front end?
2. If we use these two components (SQL Server 2000 (Back-end) + (VB.Net 2008 Frontend) do you think this will works properly?
3. If this is possible by accessing via code? then please send me connection string.
4. Is there any database server we can use? asides from sql server? where we can implement client-server applications? how about oracle? MySQL Database Server?
