MSMQ does not start through the dependent windows service, until reboot the computer

[skindika]

Hi,

I have implemented a C# windows service (Let say "ABC") which depends on MSMQ Service. Dependency was set through the following registry Key and the values are given below.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\ABC\DependOnService]

Value Name: DependOnService
Value Type: REG_MULTI_SZ
Value: MSMQ

It is required to run my windows service under an administrator account.
MSMQ is running under the "Local System" account. Once I add this registry, until i reboot my computer, this dependency does not work, which means,

1. Both MSMQ and my windows service are stopped and then i try to start my windows service. But, It does not start since MSMQ is not getting started, even the dependency is configured properly.

2. When I stop MSMQ Service, it does not pop up warning message to confirm the stopping MSMQ.
But, Once I reboot my computer above two scenarios are working fine which means dependency is working properly. My question is do I need to reboot my computer at all, once I add this registry values ??.
If the answer is "Yes" is there a way to get work this dependency without reboot my computer.
Appreciate your help.

Thanks,
Indika Sanath.

Hi,

The problem is that all service information is cached on startup. Modifying the configurations of the services will have no effect until the cache is refreshed after a subsequent restart.

If there is any way round this, it will be by talking to the Windows Service Control Manager (SCM) API directly.

I accept with information:1. Both MSMQ and my windows service are stopped and then i try to start my windows service. But, It does not start since MSMQ is not getting started, even the dependency is configured properly.

2. When I stop MSMQ Service, it does not pop up warning message to confirm the stopping MSMQ.
