Sorry, I misunderstood the post. You should create a page that calls this function and pass in the name of the Service Process, if this method works as advertised. Something like
//StartCF.aspx.vb //------------------- imports System.ServiceProcess; imports System... public void Page_Load (object sender, System.EventArgs e) { StartService("ColdFusion"); // Use the name of the CF service } public static void StartService(string strServiceName) { System.ServiceProcess.ServiceController sc2 = new System.ServiceProcess.ServiceController(strServiceName, "."); if (sc2.Status.Equals(System.ServiceProcess.ServiceControllerStatus.Stopped)) { sc2.Start(); } } Matthew Small Web Developer American City Business Journals 704-973-1045 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: Ken Ferguson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 13, 2005 12:58 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: starting CF with ASP.NET So, now that I have these great utilities to zip up my directories it'd be nice if the CF server was actually running. I've found some VB code I can use for this, but I don't know much about ASP.NET, so please forgive my ignorance, but how can I actually use this from an aspx page? 'serviceControl.vb '------------------- Imports System.ServiceProcess public static void StartService(string strServiceName) { System.ServiceProcess.ServiceController sc2 = new System.ServiceProcess.ServiceController(strServiceName, "."); if (sc2.Status.Equals(System.ServiceProcess.ServiceControllerStatus.Stopped)) { sc2.Start(); } } Thanks, Ferg ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:211771 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
