Setup Builder does not create a service

[NewsArchive]

Hi,
Ive compiled a clarion app with the ABCfree api service extention.
It works ok if I install it as a service from the command line using
MyApp/IS
Then I try to install it with Setup builder but it does nothing, even in
the Uninstall log I see nothing about the service.
What am I doing wrong?
Image attached.
Regards

Alberto,

Did you check the "Service.sbp" in the Examples Package? It demonstrates
how to create, start, stop and remove a Windows service.

separate intaller.

Sory Discard my last post...

I try with this example modifying it a little
The service is an exe compiled with ABCfree service API that installs
ans runs ok manually, you need to be in cmd line and
run it as xxx.exe /IS

I modify the instaler the following way
- the exe is in the Files and Folders window installing in %SYS32DIR%
- then I create the service (ok without error)
- and when running it I get a error=1

and even in the windows service page you cant run it

Any idea? any other way of make a service with a clarion exe?

Thanks

Hi Alberto,

Save yourself a _lot_ of grief and get SelfService from Capesoft, study
the documentation _thorougly_ and you can't go wrong.
(and if you do have issues Bruce is around all the time :-) )

IMO, SelfService from Capesoft is the way to go.
