I'm trying to write a Win32 service. The following is straight from Python
Programming on Win32 and it doesn't work. Is that book out of date; is
there a new way to do services? I searched Google for hours trying to find
any other method, and have been beating on this one for 5 more hours.
The present error is:
C:\Tester>python tester.py debug
Debugging service Tester - press Ctrl+C to stop.
Error 0xC0000004 - Python could not import the service's module
<type 'exceptions.ImportError'>: No module named service
The code is:
import win32serviceutil, win32service, win32event
class Service(win32serviceutil.ServiceFramework):
_svc_name_ = "EDMS-to-CG"
_svc_display_name_ = "EDMS-to-CG Syncer"
_svc_description_ = "Uploaded the EDMS database to Cartograph"
def __init__(self, args):
win32serviceutil.ServiceFramework.__init__(self, args)
self.hWaitStop = win32event.CreateEvent(None, 0, 0, None)
def SvcStop(self):
self.ReportServiceStatus(win32service.SERVICE_STOP_PENDING)
win32event.SetEvent(self.hWaitStop)
def SvcDoRun(self):
pausetime = 60 * 1000
while True:
stopsignal = win32event.WaitForSingleObject(self.hWaitStop,
pausetime)
if stopsignal == win32event.WAIT_OBJECT_0: break
self.runOneLoop()
def runOneLoop(self):
import servicemanager
servicemanager.LogInfoMsg('Running')
win32serviceutil.HandleCommandLine(Service)
