I have the following snippet of code:

def start_service(service, machine):
    """Start a service"""
    win32serviceutil.StartService(service, machine)
    result = 1  #Service started successfully

If I try to start a service and it is already running, I get the following
error:
api_error: (1056, 'StartService', 'An instance of the service is already
running.')

How would I use exception handling to catch this?

Thanks!
