service code

[tomas.d...@gmail.com]

Hi,

Happy New Year.

And many help for all the guidance and excellent tool from you.

I struggling with having the code to register my filesystem as a service on Windows 2025.

It works on older versions, but not on Windows 2025.

The filesystem works fine when running as a process (console mode), so it is just the service registration and launching part that does not work.

I have in my service registration code (which I also use for start/stop/status) this

int __decl _tmain(int argc, TCHAR *argv[])

{

     ...

     return SvcInstall()

}

int SvcInstall()

{

...

    GetModuleName(...)

    OpenSCManager(... SC_MANAGER_ALL_ACCESS)

    CreateService(... SERVICE_WIN32_OWN_PROCESS...) // should this be something else for 64bit?

}

VOID WINAPI SvcMain( DWORD dwAargc, LPTSTR *lpszArgv)

{

    RegisterServiceCtrlHandler( serviceName, serviceCtrlHandler)

    ReportSvcStatus(...)

}

VOID SvcInit( DWORD dwArgc, LPTSTR *lpszArgv)

{

 ...

    CreateEvent(...)

           ReportSvcStatus(SERVICE_STOPPED...)

    CreateProcess(...)

           ReportSvcStatus(failed...)

    ReportSvcStatus(SERVICE_RUNNING...)

 

    WaitForSingleObject(...)

   ReportSvcStatus(SERVICE_STOPPED...)

}

VOID ReportSvcStatus( ....)

{

    SetServiceStatus(...)

}

VOID WINAPI SvcCtrlHandler(...)

{

     switch(...)

           case SERVICE_CONTROL_STOP:

                 ReportSvcStatus(SERVICE_STOP_PENDING...)

                 TerminateProcess(...)

}

VOID SvcReportEvent(..)

{

    RegisterEventSource(....)

    ReportEvent(...)

}
