Not off hand. > After installing this package, the "service start" operation throws "The > Service Did Not Respond To The Start Or Control Request In A Timely > Fashion". error code 1053 Run the post-install script (in the Scripts folder): "pywin32_postinstall.py -install". First edit the script to replace references to "pywin32_system32" with "pypiwin32_system32", which reflects the changed directory name in the wheel package. Running this script should copy over pywintypes35.dll and pythoncom35.dll to the System32 directory. pywintypes35.dll is required by PythonService.exe. > def main(self): > self.ReportServiceStatus(win32service.SERVICE_RUNNING) > while not self.stop_requested.is_set(): > time.sleep(1) # So something useful here Why don't you use the Windows Event (hWaitStop) with WaitForSingleObject instead of an additional threading.Event? -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
