Running as Windows service

The following actions require a command line window with local Administrator permissions.

Create windows service

Ensure that all Prerequisites are installed
Open a command line window and navigate to the folder where you copied DpeNanoServices to
Optionally adapt your configuration in the appsettings.json file

PowerShell

sc.exe create DpeNanoServices binPath= "\"C:\my-full-path-to-folder\DpeNanoServices.exe\" --environment Production --urls http://localhost:5000"

Alternatively you can do

PowerShell

sc.exe create DpeNanoServices binPath= "dotnet \"C:\my-full-path-to-folder\DpeNanoServices.dll\" --environment Production --urls http://localhost:5000"

Use standard windows service configuration dialog to configure a dedicated user account used to run DpeNanoServices

Delete windows service

PowerShell

sc.exe delete DpeNanoServices

Change windows service configuration

Change start type to “Automatic (Delayed)”

PowerShell

sc.exe config DpeNanoServices start= delayed-auto

Run the service under a dedicated user account

PowerShell

sc.exe config DpeNanoServices type= own obj= "domain\user" password= "password"

The account must have the “log in as service right”. The standard windows service configuration dialog handles a missing right automatically.

Alternatively you can grant the right from command-line

PowerShell

ntrights.exe +r SeServiceLogonRight -u "%DOMAIN%\%USER%"

Query windows service configuration

PowerShell

sc.exe query DpeNanoServices
sc.exe qc DpeNanoServices
