[Webware-discuss] Problem with windows service shutdown

From: Will Sadkin <WSadkin@Pa...> - 2006-12-13 23:43

TWIMC,

We run webkit as our appserver, via a win32 service.
If we start up the service and immediately shut it down
via the windows service manager, it works fine; if a 
session starts, and we then try to shut the service down, 
it hangs.  Is there some sort of handler we need to 
install to ensure that the sessions are being destroyed 
and threads cleaned up properly in response to a service 
control request?

Thanks in advance,
/Will Sadkin

This works for me (Win XP, Python 2.4, Webware 0.9.2, PyWin32 build 
210). Which versions are you using? Any special configuration? Can you 
try it with a clean Webware install using the CountVisits servlet that 
you will find among the WebKit examples (that's what I have tried)?
