Re: [Wrapper-user] Start order of services

[Christian M. <chr...@ta...>]

Lars,

my sincere apologies on the long delay.
Leif is currently not available and I haven't realized this
conversation is still pending.

While your problem sounds its root cause is actually based on your OS.
For Standard Editions you could use the start type "DELAY_START"
http://wrapper.tanukisoftware.com/doc/english/prop-ntservice-starttype.html

This adds a small delay on the service for starting up. So this should
give it enough time to start.

Another option would be to set a dependency on tcpip
wrapper.ntservice.dependency.1=tcpip

This tells the Service Manager not to start your service until the
tcpip service was started. Which sounds pretty much what you asked
for.

Looking at the real reason, why the network is established so late, though.
I think one of the services running on your machine is probably
interfering the network acquisition. Could you try the following on
your machine:

This is a bit of try & error but you eventually should be able to
locate the problem.

Best Regards and sorry for the delay.

Christian
