I think the LazDaemon package is broken at least on Windows. Can someone else start a Windows service made with it? I cannot.
There is an example project C:\SW\lazarus_gitsvn\examples\cleandir\cleandirs.lpi that uses it. Trying to install it ("cleandirs.exe -i" with admin rights) fails. Same thing with any other project. The log says: Failed to start service manager: Palveluprosessi ei voi muodostaa yhteyttä palveluvalvontaan. The latter sentence means something like: Service process cannot connect to service manager. I am able to install a Windows service made without LazDaemon following the instructions given in Michaël Van Canneyt's document : http://www.turbog.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/daemons.pdf Michaël is also the author of LazDaemon package. Could he maybe take a look at it? There is a bug report but it lists other problems, not the complete failure when trying to install. http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=24067 I am using Windows 7, FPC 2.6.4 and Lazarus trunk.
