I am currently working on a project with specific requirements. A brief overview of these are as follows: Data is retrieved from external webservices Data is stored in SQL 2005 Data is manipulated via a web GUI The windows service that communicates with the web services has no coupling with our internal web UI, except via the database....
It's the "printing question guy" again. Looking for a third-party solution to print PDFs, preferable from a service. I have seen some arguments against it, but due to our use case, this really is the preferred solution - the service will be receiving messages from a messaging bus, and there shouldn't be any sort of delay between the re...
I'm new to SQL Server Reporting Services, and was wondering the best way to do the following: Query to get a list of popular IDs Subquery on each item to get properties from another table Ideally, the final report columns would look like this: [ID] [property1] [property2] [Select COUNT(*) FROM AnotherTable WHERE ForeignID=ID] There...
I'm having an amazing amount of trouble starting and stopping a service on my remote server from my msbuild script. SC.EXE and the ServiceController MSBuild task don't provide switches to allow a username/password so they won't authenticate, so I'm using RemoteService.exe from www.intelliadmin.com -Authenticating with \xx.xx.xx.xxx -Au...
Help! I have an Axis web service that is being consumed by a C# application. Everything works great, except that arrays of long values always come across as [0,0,0,0] - the right length, but the values aren't deserialized. I have tried with other primitives (ints, doubles) and the same thing happens. What do I do? I don't want to ch...

I have a windows service that runs various system monitoring operations. However, when running SNMP related checks, I always get a NullReference exception. The code runs fine when run through the user interface (under my username and password), but always errors running as the service. I've tried running the service as different user ...
Are there any services that allow you to retrieve DVD cover information? I'm working on a small WPF application where this functionality would be handy. If a user inserts a DVD or types a title in, it'll automatically grab the cover art for that DVD. Thanks. ...
I’ve been trying to install Ms SQL Server 2005 for over two weeks now, and I’ve finally gotten to the point where the prerequisites all seem to be in place. Unfortunately, every time I try to install SQL Server itself, I get the following message: “The SQL Server service failed to start. For more information, see the SQL Server Books On...
With .Net what is the best way to interact with a service (i.e. how do most tray-apps communicate with their servers). It would be preferred if this method would be cross-platform as well (working in Mono, so I guess remoting is out?) Edit: Forgot to mention, we still have to support Windows 2000 machines in the field, so WCF and an...

I use a WebServiceTemplate as shown below : WebServiceTemplate ws = new WebServiceTemplate(); ws.setMarshaller(client.getMarshaller()); ws.setUnmarshaller(client.getUnMarshaller()); try { MyResponse resp = (MyResponse) = ws.marshalSendAndReceive(WS_URI, req);...
I am trying to create a service with C# that launches a process that can be displayed on the Windows XP Logon screen. I found some code that is doing this in C++. The C++ code is for a service that creates another process with STARTUPINFO.lpDesktop set to "WinSta0\WinLogon". The created process is then displayed to the Windows Logon S...
Hi, I was looking for Free/open source service (SOA) management and monitoring tools. What tools have you used and is there any tool that you recommend? Thanks Manju ...
Hello all, I've written a small service (plain Win32) and I'd like to know if it's possible to run multiple instances of it when multiple users are logged on. Basically, let's say we've got UserA and UserB for UserA the service would log on as "domain\UserA" and for UserB the service would log on as "domain\UserB" - this is from the sa...

The purpose of using a Javascript proxy for the Web Service using a service reference with Script Manager is to avoid a page load. If the information being retrieved is potentially sensitive, is there a way to secure this web service call other than using SSL? ...
I need to change the credentials of an already existing Windows service using C#. I am aware of two different ways of doing this. ChangeServiceConfig, see ttp://www.pinvoke.net/default.aspx/advapi32.ChangeServiceConfig ManagementObject.InvokeMethod using Change as the method name. Neither seems a very "friendly" way of doing this and...
Hello all, I'm trying to start a service as a user and things work fine, until I try a user that doesn't have a password. Then, it fails to start (due to log-on error). Am I doing something wrong or is this "by design"? The code to register this service: SC_HANDLE schService = CreateService( schSCManager, strNameNoSp...
I saw this over on slashdot and realized if I could program in dns control into some of my apps it would make life a lot easier. Someone over there recommended dynect which apparently had a wonderful api. Unfortunately not a lot else was recomended. I don't know anything about managing dns servers I mostly work with the lamp stack, so on...
Here's the idea, I'd like to make a service? that will look for a certain program starting up and dissallow it unless certain conditions are met. Let's say I have a game I want to stop myself from playing during the week. So if I start it up on any day other than Friday/Saturday/Sunday, it will intercept and cancel. Is this possible ...
