SelfService example 55

[bergsj]

Hello,

On the Capesoft site in the documentation of SelfService it says:

"WebServer - An Example is included with NetTalk 4.31 (and higher) which demonstrates adding a Web Server to a program using Self-Service.
the example can be found in the \clarion6\3rdparty\examples\NetTalk\Web Server\ServicesRequiresSelfService (55) folder."

I have installed 4.31 and I cannot find this example. Someone else has this? Or some other way of explaining the service installation in combination with NetTalk?

Thanx! Sjoerd

Hi Sjoerd,

I'm not sure if the example is omitted on purpose, or it's just been overlooked.

I've attached it here (without the web folder, be sure to copy a web folder in...)
Let me know if you have any hassles - like I say, I'm not sure if it's been excluded on purpose.

Cheers
Bruce

Bruce,

The example works fine. But if I add the global extension Activate Capesoft SelfService and add the control to install and start the service it does not work. This is part of the debug log:

[3636] [SelfService] InstallService() CPortal Service was installed successfully. Name = [CPortal] DisplayName = [CPortal] Description = [<Your Service Description>] Executable = [C:\Develop\CleanPortal\CPortal.exe]
[3636] [SelfService] StartService() CPortal Service failed to start. |Can't start service. |Error = The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion. (1053) |Name = [CPortal]

As you can see, the service is installed correctly, but then cannot start. If I try this manually I get the same error.
Any suggestions?

HiSjoerd,

a) put in a proper description.
b) make sure you've read the Self Service docs, especially the "Ground Rules" section.

Given that you can run the example ok, the next step is to compare the settings in the example, with the settings in your app.

Cheers

It's working, not sure what I did, but only enabling the SS globally eventually did the trick.

Thanks!
