Create a windows service.

[karthik baskar]

Hi,
I want to create a windows service. I have a problem in doing that.
In command prompt, I typed, sc.exe "Application_na me" binpath = "Applicatio n Path". The service is created.
I opened services windows and tried starting the service. But the service did not start.
It showed a error message saying "Error 1053 : The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion". Can anyone please help me out to fix this problem ??

Thanks in advance,
Karthik Baskar.

My guess is that your application is a plan old application rather than a service. sc.exe will not turn a normal console application into a service it just does the necessary registry editing to add the application to the list of services in the registry.
