Hi,
I have created a simple windows service (using topshelf) which writes text to event log . Service works perfectly from Visual Studio Express 2012 but after installing it an clicking on start it gives me an error :1053 The service
did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion. After that status of the service is start pending. I tried to run the service both as local system (with or without desktop cooperation) and user with admin privileges.
I have already tried solutions from other topics but nothing seems to useful.
Below you may see the code :
public class Test
{
public void Start()
{
try
{
Console.WriteLine("Start");
Execute();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
}
}
public void Stop()
{
try
{
Console.WriteLine("Stop ");
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
}
}
public void Execute()
{
EventLog _log = new EventLog();
_log.Source = "123Test";
try
{
while (true)
{
_log.WriteEntry("sleeping ..." + System.DateTime.Now.ToString());
Thread.Sleep(5000);
}
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Console.WriteLine("error: " + e.Message.ToString());
}
}
}
public class Program
{
public static void Main()
{
try
{
HostFactory.Run(x =>
{
x.Service<Test>(s =>
{
s.ConstructUsing(name => new Test());
s.WhenStarted(test => test.Start());
s.WhenStopped(test => test.Stop());
});
x.RunAsLocalSystem();
x.SetDisplayName("123Test");
x.SetServiceName("123Test");
});
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
EventLog.WriteEntry("123Test", ex.ToString(), System.Diagnostics.EventLogEntryType.Error);
}
}
}
I would appreciate any suggestion that may lead to solving this problem.
Edit: (OS - Win7)
