similar to: [ win32utils-Bugs-12881 ] Cannot wait on Process - service_daemon/service_main

Hi all, I *finally* committed the patch from Patrick Hurley (you know, the one he submitted way back in June). Looks like it works. I''ve also revamped the code under the examples directory. There''s now a tdaemon.rb (the test daemon) and tdaemon_ctl.rb (the test daemon controller). Before I release this into the wild I want to make sure I document how to use it properly.

Hello mailing list! Sorry for the personal/private mail I sent to Daniel and Park, but just a few minutes ago I subscribed to this list. I have found the solution, for webrick, mongrel and other webserver (well I guess). If the code in service_main is blocked (like the webrick dispatcher), the service_main function never exit/left, so service.mainloop never terminates and service control

Hi, Unless I''m mistaken the final arguments to Service.start should be passed to the Daemon''s service_main method. Correct? I modified the Service.start method (now in CVS) to look something like this: def self.start(service, host=nil, *args) ... num_args = args.length if args.empty? args = nil else args.unshift(service) # Necessary?

Hi, I believe this patch would be a perfect solution for a lengthy initialization application.

Hi all, I wrote a little echo client to run as a service. I have a couple of problems with this. First, any time I try to define anything in "initialize", the service fails to start. Any idea why? Also, this service runs for a while, then just quits for no reason that I can see. The Event Log merely says, "The Abba service terminated unexpectedly". Any ideas on

Hi, I just got done using win32/service to run a very small/hack-ish "Riki" WEBrick service. Very cool stuff. Thanks. So, in the process, I noticed a lot of the "control" start/install/etc. command line parser stuff looked a bit boilerplate, so I pulled it out into a helper function "service_cli" (for lack of a better name). Its simple, but it allows me to do away

Hi all, I''ve been going through the various IPC modules for Win32Utils and converting them to pure Ruby. I''m almost done with win32-mutex, but I can''t get the example to work.

Hi all, Well, I''ve messed something up in the pure Ruby Process.fork method.

Hi all, Windows XP Pro Ruby 1.8.2 I''m having a couple of problems with the following service. The first issue is that the code in service_start doesn''t seem to fire off. The second problem is that any attempt to do ''require "webrick"'' within webrick_daemon.rb causes the service to fail on start. Any ideas? # webrickctl.rb

I''m back to getting stuff to run as a Windows service, and am running in to a problem. My service (a Daemon ruby class) installs and starts fine, but when I try to stop it, I get: C:\workspaces\default\tahoe>ruby script\service stop script/service:77:in `stop'': An exception occurred in the service when handling the control request.

Hello list, In my quest to get Mongrel working as service for win32, found some problems with win32/service that make it impossible to solve. Attached is the simplest service script I could do with ruby, which depends on win32/service. I found that doing anything complex in service_stop (killing threads, doing file handling, even sleeping for 0.25 seconds). crash the service with backtraces (of

All, At the risk of annoying you all to death with seemingly trivial things, I was thinking that we should change a couple method names. I know that I myself had suggested "on_stop", "on_pause", etc, for the event hooks in the Daemon class. However, I think I will change those to "service_stop", "service_pause", etc. This isn''t a major issue,

I''m having some trouble separating the Daemon class stuff from the Service Control stuff. I have a "daemon.rb" file in ''C:\''. I also have a daemonctrl.rb script in another directory. It installs fine, but I can never start it successfully. What am I doing wrong? Dan # daemon.rb in ''C:\'' require "win32/service" include Win32

I wanted to see if I could setup a simple echo server to run as a service. So, using daemon_test.rb, I modified the Daemon class to something like this: require "socket" class Daemon def initialize @server = TCPServer.new("localhost",8888) end def service_main while state == RUNNING while session = @server.accept str =
