From: Kerem G�mr�kc� on 26 May 2008 07:40 Hi, nah, those services grfx(/&%%$/,... I wanted to restart the "RemoteRegistry" Service and send it a command from services control application i wrote but the service stucked in the "StopPending" Status... I cant stop/start/pause it. Its floating over 30 Minutes in the StopPending Status. The Service is embedded in a svchost.exe, so i cant kill it directly. What can i do,..? Self hosting services kann be easlily terminated but how to do this with a svchost hosted.exe service? "Dow" like homer would say,..:-D Regards Kerem -- ----------------------- Beste Gr�sse / Best regards / Votre bien devoue Kerem G�mr�kc� Microsoft Live Space: http://kerem-g.spaces.live.com/ Latest Open-Source Projects: http://entwicklung.junetz.de ----------------------- "This reply is provided as is, without warranty express or implied."

Hi Kerem, You can use the following API to specify how the service manager should handle the failure of the service process, and you can have the SCM to restart the service automatically: ChangeServiceConfig2() SERVICE_FAILURE_ACTIONS http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms681988(VS.85).aspx Kellie.

I recently came across the requirement to temporarily stop the event log service so it releases an event log file for a custom event log during uninstallation of my product, and I encountered a similar phenomenon. So I guess you have to live with it. Or did I misinterpret your description and it is only a single computer where stopping remote registry fails whereas it works on the majority of your systems? -- S
From: Kerem G�mr�kc� on 27 May 2008 05:59 Hi Stefan, this is a situation i encountered on many systems, ranging from obsolte Windows NT to new Windows Vista Systems. Sometimes you send a Signal to Stop/Start to a Windows Service, no matter whether its a Windows Integrated or your own service and it stucks, or is pending/floating in an indefinite state. If its a self Hosting, single Exe, you got for a pskill, process -k, or whatever it terminates the process, but this is difficult, and also not possible for a svchost.exe housing the service,... In that case you have two possibilities: Either reboot, or kill the entire service host, which can lead to a BSOD if its hosting a system critical Service like the EventLog facillity,... Anyway,...we have to live with it, you are right!
