View 7 RepliesI am making a server program, it works, cool.Made it display the info coming in via a textbox, the number of users connected, etc.I based it off of one of the members heres examples (jmcilhinney).However, I am kind of in a rock and a hard place.Do I try and convert it to a windows service so its on all the time? Or do I leave it in a exe format?I have never touched windows services before, but they look promising.However, this will be residing on a collocated server running Windows Server 2003.The problem with that is, if I run it. Person B, C, D, E, whoever.. can not see it due to the virtualized desk tops of RDC (even under the same username).I am kinda curious if I should make it a windows service, then make my 'display' program that just.. remotely taps into it to control it, and view stats and such.The 'server' will take info sent from the client, and add it into a database, then pass back some commands and such.

View 2 RepliesI'm working on an application which automatically generates faxes.The system uses word interop to fill a template .doc file with values (which works fine), but when it comes to be time to print the resulting file to pcl, I'm having issues. So, we've got a HP Laserjet printer set up which prints .pcl files.
Dim appWord As New Word.Application
Dim doc As New Word.Document
appWord.ActivePrinter = PCL_PRINTER
[code]......
Problem is that when the doc.PrintOut line runs, word complains, popping up a message:I've tried all sorts of combinations of things, but the error message persists. Very occasionally, the thing actually works and generates a usable pcl file, but 98% of the time, the error message pops up and the whole process grinds to a halt.
We have other applications on the same server which do almost exactly the same thing, except they print from excel instead of word, and they work without throwing the error.

I have a small service which right now I just want to test by printing some string that is passed in and stored in a class.
Problem is everything works fine, service even starts fine as long as I don't call PrintDocument's Print function.
The moment I do that, the service never starts and I get Error 1053:Service didn't respond, etc error.
Since the coming of Windows7 at our office we have sometimes the issue that the print spool is crashing.Users don't have admin rights to restart the service so that leaves them only at restarting their computer as solution.Which costs alot of time... As we cannot find a final solution to this problem I've begin to write a small tool so they can restart it..I've only hard code a local admin account in the source for this operate for them..

If I have a custom windows service running on a server, is there anyway I can access the value of a property/variable within that service? For example, I would like to have a client vb program be able to "read" the value some variable from that service. A simple example would be the service would capture a boolean value of the success or failure of the last time it kicked off a process. I would then like to have a client windows app "connect" with the service and be able to read that boolean value.

Can anyone explain the following immediate window behavior:
Debug.Print mDb.DatabaseOptions Method arguments must be enclosed in parentheses.
Debug.Print(mDb.DatabaseOptions)Value of type 'DatabaseOptions' cannot be converted to 'String'.
? mDb.DatabaseOptions
{Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.DatabaseOptions}
AnsiNullDefault: False
UserData: Nothing
According to MS documentation The question mark (?) is an alias for Debug.Print This is clearly not 100% true, as the two statements exhibit differing behaviors in the example above. If it makes any difference, I am using the Express Edition of VB 2008.
When I add a debug.print line to my code, it doesn't send the output to the immediate window. I did a search of the forum for debug.print, and found the identical problem, but, the solution listed did not work for me. Basically it said to set the solution configuration to "Debug" as opposed to "Release".
View 3 RepliesIn Win7, I am running a service which launches a process which hosts the office-library (Word 2007) for the purpose doing a mail-merge. There is no interface anywhere. When I launch the mail-merge process with the service as the parent, Word cannot create a document using my existing mail-merge Word doc. At first I thought the problem was with UAC so I changed the manifest to run as admin but it seems like that was irrelevant. When I launch the process from explorer or a non-service process instead of the service it works and is able to load Word and a document successfully. I used Process Monitor to see if I could get some clues as to what could be happening. As far as I can tell, when the proc is launched by the service it is using system profile since I see file paths such as c:windowssystem32configsystemprofile and c:windows mp instead of my user profile folders C:UsersUserNameAppDataRoamingApplication etc. My service is running as my username and not localsystem. I check the username using WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name and I get my correct username regardless of service/non-service invocation. I tried changing the Word startup path in the Application object but again it only succeeds in non-service mode. I tried creating the process from the service in both shell mode and non-shell mode and they both behave similarly. I think the problem could lie in the fact that when the proc is launched by the service the user belongs to NT Authority/Service but when launched any other way it is NT
