Check On Several Services To See If They're Running?
May 15, 2011
I need to check on several services to see if they're running on several servers. I would like the program to tell me if a specific service is or is not running and if it is to reply with a msg stating which service is running, same if it is not running.
this is what i have so far:
Private Sub CheckServiceButton_Click_1(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles CheckServiceButton.Click
' This will check if the service is running '
[Code]....

I am trying to write a Windows Script that will allow me to monitor the following: That 2 x seperate but specific processes within Component Services "Running Processes" list are currently running and have not reset within the past hour. If I already know the PID, then I can retrieve the CreationDate (I assume which I can use to check for restarts? or is this the actual process creation/installation date) for each specific process, however if a restart occurs the PID will change and my script needs to know what the new PID is without me telling it!

I'm looking for an API/function I can call to determine if software is running on Citrix, Terminal Services, or a stand-alone PC. Optimally, it would work something like this: [code]I would prefer something that worked from an API call as opposed to looking at something in the registry as we're having more and more customers that are locking down the registry.

I'm looking for a way to get details of the name and status of all services running on a service. I did use the following code:
Public Sub GetServices()
Dim localServices As ServiceController() = ServiceController.GetServices()
For Each service As ServiceController In localServices
If Not String.IsNullOrEmpty(service.DisplayName) Then
dictservice(service.DisplayName) = New Service(service.DisplayName, service.ServiceName, service.Status.ToString)
End If
Next
End Sub
However, since I have packaged up my project as a WCF service, the System.ServiceProcess namespace I used cannot be used: Is there any other way I can retrieve the same details? Possibly through WMI?

We want to set up a bunch of thin clients linked to a server running server 2003 using terminal services. When the thin client runs our app it needs to know which station it is so it can gather information unique to itself from the database. (IP address?). Our app is written in VB6.

We are developing an application in VB.NET that will need to accomodate remote users logging onto a Microsoft Terminal Server using RDP through the MSTSC.exe client.
Is it possible to offer an 'Upload' button which will allow the remote user to pick a file from his/her local hard drive and upload to the server ?

Im trying to check multiple services on different servers. The idea is that every time a client clicks on a checkbox for the specific server and press the "check service" button it will check the status on the service and if it's not running it will restart the service and so on for the rest of the servers.[code]

I am working on a tool that will better manage the server applications I run on my server. I have a working version of what I need written in VB6, I've tried converting the code from vb6 to .net with no luck. Basically I have a few server applications I would like to display the status of, if they're running or not. Then with a few buttons to start/stop the application accordingly. I've found a few different code snippets across the web which I've tried to implement in to my project with no luck.

I have an application that provides core services for a series of other applications.When another of these applications is started, I want to check that the service application is running and if not shutdown.What is the best method to check for the existence of the other app? I'm thinking that I should be using a global mutex in the services app and checking for it's existence in the other apps. Is this the correct way to proceed?

Although I signed up a year ago I didnt have enough free time to carry on programming, but have now made some time.
I have spent the past 2 hours trying to look for a code for visual basic 2008 that will check if a program is running.
It would be really helpful if someone wrote the whole code out and made it clear exactly where I put them name of the .exe file

I am creating a program that will check if a program is running, by checking its window title (NOT THE FILENAME, ITS WINDOW TITLE) and seeing if it is currently running.
So far I was only able to check if the program was running by its filename

I'm making a program in VB to check if a certain program is running, and if not, to start it up, because I'm hardly ever at my computer and sometimes the program that is being checked for existence tends to close down often, so I need something that will check for the existence of the program in question, and start it if it's not running

I have a program that 10-20 people use throughout the day. Because things are rapidly fluctuating I occasionally have to take the database offline, or restart the server for other reasons. I'd like to have a better way to make sure no one is currently in the program than walking to each person and asking them.
I don't want to re-invent the wheel if something like this already exists.
The thoughts I had were:
Create a database "history" entry each time users open or close the program to see who is currently using the system. Use WCF to have the clients "tell" the server that they are connected every X seconds.

I'm running into an issue with my application. If the laptop is just turned on and a user opens the application, the application attempts to hit a SQL server to do some work. The issue is that sometimes the SQL Server process hasn't started yet (slow laptop).
What is the preferred method for checking if this is running.
Do I check for it like a normal process?
Do I attempt to make a connection via ADO.NET and catch the error?

I have multiple textboxes that are saved using my settings and buttons to add them to the clipboard.
The problem is when the textbox is blank and I click on the copy button.
The saving to my.settings happens on close so when someone enters text that they plan on saving later and then clicks the copy button, whammo it crashes.
Here is the code that is failing and I need to check to make sure that there is a value before setting the text on the windows clipboard.[code]...

I need to check if a certain process is NOT running. So until now i've been using a loop and if it doesn't find the process then it alerts me (with MsgBox) however now i realized that the for each loops looks on each process and if that process isn't the one im looking for its gonna give me an alert, that it was not running even when the next process could be the one i need to know about.

I'm wanting to add a some extra code within my application. My app is a single form that sets some environment variables before calling a one of two possible 3rd party executables to run. I have set via regedit the file association for files to open via my app but what I want to do is have my app check to see if either 3rd party app is already running. In short I'm trying to ensure either 3rd party app stays as a single instance.
If a user were to try an open another instance: 1) my application should simply terminate (no warnings, no msg boxes etc...) 2)the file that the user was trying to open should open within the existing instance of the 3rd party application. The problem is I don't quite know how to achieve both parts I imagine that this 'instance check' should happen as the first bit of code so that if no instance of either 3rd party app is found, then proceed with rest of my application. I have tested using some lines of code at the top of Sub New(). Here's what I have so far for checking for both 3rd party applications:
Public Sub New()
If IsProcessRunning("ustation") = True Then
Me.Close()
[code]....

My application required .NET Framework 2.0.Currently, if it is not installed the user recieves the following error:The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135)'.It becomes extremely tiresome repeating to users that this is because the framework isn't installed. Is there some way to check if .NET framework 2.0 is installed before running, or in some way change this cryptic message so the user knows immediately
