VS 2010 Programmatically Start/Stop Service Using Different Credentials?
Jan 17, 2012
I was able to programmatically launch a service on my development server from a workstation using the ServiceController class with no problems.
When I try to programmatically launch the service on my production server from my workstation, I get an access error which means I do not have rights to run the service with my logged in ID on the workstation.
My question is, is there a way to launch the service using different credentials? I do not see anywhere to input these credentials in the ServiceController class.
how to start and stop a service using Visual Basic 2008 Express?I specifically need to write a small application that will start and stop the spooler service. In other words, the command line equivalent of:net stop spooler andnet start spoolerTIA
I am a total newbie when it comes to VB but I'm starting off with a few simple projects I've completed already! Basically Ive seen MANY stopwatch tutorials but none so far have been able to do a simple format of Second and Milliseconds 00:00 and NONE have been accurate in the slightest and have been totally off! create a simple stop / start stopwatch that is actually accurate that would be great as Im going around in circles trying to find a tutorial on this!
I'd like for my application to prompt for user credentials as soon as it starts. The reason for this being that it is an app for our IT Helpdesk that will be run on user's machines, and I need to make sure it is always run with administrator credentials.
Is there a simple way to get the program to prompt for credentials on execution?
I'm developing an application for our IT Helpdesk to do some common tasks like installs, drive mapping, etc...
However this application needs to be run as administrator. Is there a way to get the application to bring up the RunAs prompt as soon as it runs, so the user doesn't have to do a Shift + Right click > Runas?
I've spent alot of time digging thru the forums to research this problem, and to get the right code. I'm wondering now if this is a system configuration problem, or something else with my code.
Firstly, i'll tell you that i've already put the service account on my machine local security policy that says 'allow to act with/as operating system'.
Running this code from an application, it works just fine:
I have to admit that I was sceptical it would work... but below is the code. I had to make a minor change to the code you suggested. Whenever I tried IPC$ it would return a 53 result code, even though I'm sure the share exists. So at the suggestion of another website I removed the share and just the computer name and this worked.
I'm attempting to consume a HTTP Basic Auth Secured PHP WebService using VB.NET. I've so far managed to get 100% perfect integration by adding it as a Web Reference and doing the following:
Dim Credentials = New System.Net.NetworkCredential("username", "password") Dim CredentialCache = New System.Net.CredentialCache() CredentialCache.Add(New Uri(MyWebService.Url), "Basic", Credentials) MyWebService.Credentials = CredentialCache MyWebService.PreAuthenticate = True
I can also successfully add the webservice as a 'Service Reference' and this also works fine, as long as i turn off all HTTP authentication on the SOAP server.
My problem is that I can't find any documented means of sending basic HTTP Auth Credentials when using Service References as opposed to 'Web References'
Am I right in my understanding that 'Web References' are a legacy method of Web Service consumption?
I created 3 timers, i want each timer to take turn start which means timer1 stop then timer2 start, once timer2 stop timer3 start. But my code seem to be running together once i click the play button.And is there any ways to easy control how my picturebox move? Because my code for controlling it movement need to keep finding the correct number for it to move.
Is it possible to have a dotnet windows service which monitor other services and upon stop of any service, the monitoring service would be able to start the stopped service.
When I try to call a [Java] web service from .NET, I am getting what appears to be a security credentials issue. CWWSS5509E: A security token whose type is [http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-username-token-profile-1.0#UsernameToken] is required.Is it even picking up the credentials that I am trying to pass? At this point, I just want to make contact with the web service and get access. In my example, ServiceReference1 is a generated Web proxy class.
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click Dim myLocateProfileBySourceSystemId As New ServiceReference1.locateProfileBySourceSystemId
I am trying to make an application with a start button and a stop button on a stop watch program. These are the codes I am using but my seconds on the stop watch don't start.
Public Form Dim intSecond As Integer = 0 Form 1 Private Dim intSecond As Integer = 0 intSecond +=1
[Code]...
After I write my code and try to run the program, the seconds will not start,
I need to record the screen when my user clicks start, and stop recording when he clicks stop.I've searched for a while on this subject, and I have found nothing.I want to do this without adding any files to my project, I just want to use some built in function in Visual Basic, and start recording, or even take a snapshot and add it to an AVI file or something...These are some sites I have found:

This code is in VB6, but I am not sure how to even start using it?
when I am using the following code. the kill all batch file internally calls a vbs cript like this when a batch file is called using CreateProcess() which internaly calls a vbs script like this cscript //e:vbscript xyz.vbs which intends stops and starts a service in remote PC as follows. But the service is stopping but it is not starting event though it start command is used what could be the reason...

Currently I can not get my hotkeys to start and stop my program.Private Declare Function GetAsyncKeyState Lib "user32" (ByVal vkey As Long) As Integer and
I have a combo box I am filling on form load.I am using "SelectedindexChanged" to detect changes in the index to run the code when the combobox is used.Unfortunately, it runs the code on start up as well.
i have made program and would like a progress bar to start at the start of the script and stop at the end of the script.
I was thinking of using a timer and haver timer.start at the beginning of the script and timer.stop at the end for the progress bar but timers use time :/
I have a VB .Net service, which uses System.Threading instead of a timer to basically do what a timer should do. My problem is stopping the service while the thread is in its sleep state. See the code below:
Imports System.Threading
Public Class AService Private stopping As Boolean[code].....
If say 1 minutes after the service starts, it can not be stopped until its 15 minute interval ticks and the thread wakes. Is there any way to catch the signal that the service is attempting to stop, and interrupt the thread?
I am also having a problem with the ServiceController trying to stop a windows service could someone take a look at teh below and check I am doing it right please.[code]Got this code from a Google Search. The error that came up was:Cannot open fdPHost service on computer 'localhost'.I have done work with services before but can't remember the code and can't get access to it at the moment (on my pc at work thats off :-( )
I'm creating a program to stop a particular windows service.This windows service was also written by me.The service will watch a folder and cut and paste the file to another location.The service was running OK.And I have another (TESTING) console application which will try to stop this service only. (I'm doing testing!)However, the app failed to stop the service.
Here is the code i use to stop the service.
VB.Net ' AutoMover is my windows service name.Dim controller As New ServiceController("AutoMover")controller.Stop()controller.WaitForStatus(ServiceControllerStatus.Stopped)controller.Start()
The debug line stop at WaitForStatus because the service didn't stop.Here is the Stop function from my windows service
VB.Net Protected Overrides Sub OnStop() GC.Collect()End Sub
After a few seconds (may be 1 minutes or 2), there is an error message box pop up from window and said the following error msg.' Auto Move is my service Display Name.Could not stop the Auto Move service on Local Computer.Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.If I click Stop from Services.msc, it stop successfully. Strange!!
