Uniface.exe like a service on Windows

Author: antoine.picaud@free.fr (apicaud)

Hi all,

I have an application who work currently like a "windows service" with srvany.exe.

It works correctly with start/stop service from wondows services.

The command line launch directly uniface.exe with some parameters.
Now, I need another uniface.exe but the context is different. I need new Oracle home.

To do that, I've create a batch file where I specify some environment variables and I launch Uniface.exe

The start service is OK. The stop service is KO because, Uniface.exe keep on my computer.
Have you a solution to do that without urouter module ?

Regards,

Antoine

Hi Antoine,

have you changed the
"system" environment variables or the
"user" environment variables?

as an alternative: create/check in your bat  a special file like "c:\\myalt.1.txt"

Success, Uli

Thanks Uli,

With your comments, I found a solution.

1°) Create a new user
2°) Change "user" variables
3°) Launch directly Uniface.exe
4°) Make some tests

Regards,

Antoine

The solution with srvAny.exe is provided by the registry

In Parameter section, add a keyword list with all environment variables. The name of the keyword is AppEnvironment

In this section, you specify NLS_LANG, NLS_..., PATH, CLASSPATH, ...

It's very sensible because if it's not correct, Uniface doen't start your startup shell and no log is available.

With ou without $proc_tracing=True in asn file, if the section is not correct, the is no trace.

Bye.

Antoine
