Hello,
I developed a windows service that has a reference to a WebService.
The service uses the local system account and its set to start automatically.
unfortunally it does not start automatically and I got two error messages in the Event Viewer: (Event ID 7000 Service <MyService> did not start in timely fashion and EventID 7009 Timeout (30000 milliseconds) waiting for the <MyService> service to connect.)
I have installed the framework 1.1 SP1 as recomended by Microsoft but it has made no diference.

the following is the code on the Onstart event

Dim start As ThreadStart = New ThreadStart(AddressOf ServiceTimer_Tick)
mWorker = New Thread(start)
mWorker.Start()
timer.AutoReset = True
timer.Enabled = True
timer.Start()
Note; I have no problem starting it manually.
does anyone have experienced this problem before?
Regards,
adasilva.
