Re: created windows service

Generally, if the DLL is in the same folder as the executable there should be no problem.
You might check permissions on the folder to make sure the account under which it is
running has access to that folder.

I have created windows service.In the pgm there is a function call
which is to the DLL. .Now i have to make the pgm installable.How can we
put the pgm along with the DLL.I just put both these in the insert file
list of INSTALL SHIELD.Then during installing the service both the
files(.exe and .dll) are in the same folder.but while starting the
service, error occurs file not found....(i think the .exe can't access
the dll file,because of the incorrect path).........same path problem
comes in making the createService call. how can i solve this.Is there
any default working directory where i can put this DLL ?
