Problem with Win32::Service in sub

[Denis Peuziat]

Hi,

I'm a newbie with perl and I don't know much about programming either. I
wrote a script to manipulate services on Windows, and it works fine :

use Win32::Service;
$server_main="\\\\ncedpeuziat";
$server_backup="\\\\nceoatestdp";
$current_date = localtime(time);

open(LOGFILE, ">>CServer_Sync.log");
print LOGFILE "TEST LOG\n\n";
print LOGFILE
"***********************************************************************************\n";
print LOGFILE
"***********************************************************************************\n";
print LOGFILE "\nTEST was started on: ";
print LOGFILE "$current_date\n";

print LOGFILE "Stopping SNMP on $server_backup...\n";
Win32::Service::StopService($server_backup, 'SNMP');
sleep(5);
Win32::Service::GetStatus($server_backup, 'SNMP', \%status);
$Service_Status= $status{CurrentState};
if ($Service_Status == 1) {
      print LOGFILE "SNMP service successfully stopped on
$server_backup\n";
} else {
    sleep(5);
    Win32::Service::GetStatus($server_backup, 'SNMP', \%status);
    $Service_Status= $status{CurrentState};
    if ($Service_Status != 1) {
      print LOGFILE "ERROR: SNMP service cannot be stopped on
$server_backup\n";
      close(LOGFILE);
      exit;
    }
    print LOGFILE "SNMP service successfully stopped on $server_backup\n";
  }

And I have to do this with a couple of services so I thought I might as
well write a function to do it, and that's where the pb starts:

use Win32::Service;
$server_main="\\\\ncedpeuziat";
$server_backup="\\\\nceoatestdp";
$current_date = localtime(time);

open(LOGFILE, ">>CServer_Sync.log");
print LOGFILE "TEST LOG\n\n";
print LOGFILE
"***********************************************************************************\n";
print LOGFILE
"***********************************************************************************\n";
print LOGFILE "\nTEST was started on: ";
print LOGFILE "$current_date\n";

Stop_Service("SNMP",$server_backup);

sub Stop_Service {
print LOGFILE "Stopping $_[0] on $_[1] ...\n";
Win32::Service::StopService($_[1], '$_[0]');
sleep(5);
Win32::Service::GetStatus($_[1], '$_[0]', \%status);
$Service_Status=$status{CurrentState};
if ($Service_Status == 1) {
      print LOGFILE "$_[0] service successfully stopped on $_[1]\n";
} else {
    sleep(5);
    $Service_Status=Win32::Service::GetStatus($_[1], '$_[0]', \%status);
    if ($Service_Status != 1) {
      print LOGFILE "ERROR: $_[0] service cannot be stopped on $_[1]\n";
      close(LOGFILE);
      exit;
    }
    print LOGFILE "$_[0] service successfully stopped on $_[1]\n";
  }
}

I tried to log steps and it seems that the sub cannot interpret the win32
commands....

Any help would be welcome

Thanks

Denis
