DasMulli.Win32.ServiceUtils

[hema2013]

Hello,

• I have Create a simple example (Console App .Net Core) :*

  public class ServiceHost : IWin32Service
  {
  public string ServiceName => "Test Service";

    public void Start(string[] startupArguments, ServiceStoppedCallback serviceStoppedCallback)
    {
        
    }
  
    public void Stop(){}
  

  }

static void Main(string[] args)
{
var host = new ServiceHost();
var win32Host = new Win32ServiceHost(host);
win32Host.Run();
}

• I have install the service using the command "sc create" .
• The Service has been installed on the windows services.
• When I try to start it , Error Occurred
  "The Test Api Service service failed to start due to the following error:
  The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion."
• Why This Error Occurred although I do not write any code on the start method.

what did you pass to sc.exe? what executable shown in the service details/properties in the service management console?

"Test Service" != "Test Api Service22"

@hema2013 also note that it may not work with the build output. try using dotnet publish -r win-x64 and use the the executable in the publish/ subdirectory of the output folder.
Using the build output may or may not work depending on service and system configurations (permissions).
