Betty,
Make sure your service calls base class methods in onCreate() and
onStart(). Intents for processing are queued to a worker thread by
IntentService.onStart. The worker thread is set up by onCreate.
class BettysService extends IntentService {
@Override
public void onCreate() {
... logging here ...
super.onCreate();
}
@Override
public void onStart(Intent intent, int startId) {
... logging here...
super.onStart(intent, startId);
}
.....
}
BTW, Android source can be found here:

Hi --
Thanks for replying. I also have a logging printout in the
onStartCommand() method, and that does show as being called.
If onStartCommand() is called, doesn't that mean my startService()
from my Activity has indeed started my IntentService?
Who ultimately calls onHandleIntent()? That's what I cannot figure
out from the docs.

I'm tryng to get an IntentService to work, and I have extended
IntentService, and I implemented a onHandletIntent(Intent) method. I
put some logging in there, but this method never gets called.
I must be doing something really dumb, but I don't know what it is.
Is there something else I need to implement or override, or whatever,
to make this work?
No, that's pretty much it. Are you sure whatever is supposed to be
calling startService() is actually calling startService()?
