Installation and automatic start for a service

4-Jul-07 8:03

Hi,

I havent used it, but there is UdpClient.BeginReveive() which starts an asynchronous receive.
The example in MSDN shows how you can do other things while it works for you.

Hi,
i'm new at C# and i have a question for you. I've created a windows service and also the project installer for it. Now i've also created the setup project for it and it works fine. This is the problem: if i want to start the service after the setup, i've to start it manually, but i want to do it automatically at the end of the setup program. How can i do it? Can you help me?

Thank you all.

Gianluca

There is an article that explains this in detail at http://www.codeproject.com/install/sercviceinstallerext.asp.

Here are some of my articles.
Hope this helps!

time out exception while uploading to FTP [modified]

I have developed an application that will upload files to FTP Server as part of its task. Now it works quite well most of the time. But sometimes it gets web exception-called timeout exception -

System.Net.WebException: The operation has timed out. at System.Net.FtpWebRequest.GetRequestStream()

I searched in google and didn't find any useful help.

I saw an attibute (in FtpWebRequest class) called Timeout. I didn't set any value to it, cause i assumed that the default value will do. But now that it gets timeout exceptions , what should i do?

1. Can i solve it Just by setting some high value in this(timeout) attribute ? will it have any performance overhead ?

2. I am using FtpWebRequest. I am sending synchronous calls. Do I need to change it to asynchronous calls or it will be all the same? Is there any relation between time out and Sync/ASync calls ?

I am finding no solution to this. So i will be waiting for a help from this forum.

thanks

i want a code like given below in which when i send the URL the CAPTCHA inside it should also come. here the problemis that the CAPTCHA has no specific number or id
it has only reference site and when we click it the captcha always changes. so plz give me a code that gives the appropriate captcha
private string send_Request_Data(string link, string post_data)
{
string url = string.Format(link);
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
//if (proxy_enabled && proxy != null)
{
//request.Proxy = proxy;
}
request.UserAgent = "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.04506.30) Firefox/0.9.2";
request.Method = "GET";
request.Accept = "image/gif, image/x-xbitmap, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg, application/x-shockwave-flash, application/vnd.ms-excel, application/vnd.ms-powerpoint, application/msword, application/xaml+xml, application/vnd.ms-xpsdocument, application/x-ms-xbap, application/x-ms-application, */*";
request.KeepAlive = true;
request.ContentType = @"application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
request.Referer = string.Format("http://www.bebo.com");
request.CookieContainer = new CookieContainer();
request.CookieContainer.Add(cookies);
if (post_data != null)
{//post the data to the desired link
string postData = string.Format(post_data);
request.Method = "POST";
byte[] postBuffer = System.Text.Encoding.GetEncoding(1252).GetBytes(postData);
request.ContentLength = postBuffer.Length;
Stream postDataStream = request.GetRequestStream();
postDataStream.Write(postBuffer, 0, postBuffer.Length);
postDataStream.Close();
}
HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
response.Cookies = request.CookieContainer.GetCookies(request.RequestUri);
cookies.Add(response.Cookies);
Encoding enc = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8;
StreamReader responseStream = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream(), enc, true);
string responseHtml = responseStream.ReadToEnd();
response.Close();
responseStream.Close();
return responseHtml;
}

Please, PLEASE, don't put 'C#' as your header, every question here is about C#.

As has been said before, people who put captha stuff on their sites, do so exactly to stop what you're trying to do. Why do you need to do this ?

Let me get this straight. You want code to read the CAPTCHA image, figure out what characters it's supposed to send and then submit the form with the correct response to the CAPTCHA?

You do realize that CAPTCHA was created to stop the automated submission of forms, right?

Thing is - you look at the original post on this thread. Nothing is obvious, anymore. Like I said, when I saw it was you, it was obvious to me. I didn't notice, and not knowing who posted, it was not obvious to me.
