Delaying Shutdown through windows service and executing scripts ?
-
Does your service get the shutdown notification SERVICE_CONTROL_SHUTDOWN or does AbortSystemShutdown not abort the shutdown? I would say its easier to test the version with SetConsoleCtrl..., after that you should try th service version. Edit: In my first answer I said, that you have to say the system that your service supports SHUTDOWN events. Now I found what i meant. You have to use SetServiceStatus with a SERVICE_STATUS where dwControlsAccepted is a least SERVICE_ACCEPT_SHUTDOWN.

As per ur suggestion I tried to do the same but seems the control never reaches my code , I am quite confused actually as I think I am doing every thing which I think is right .Here is what I am doing after calling RegisterserverEx: ::SetServiceStatus(m_hServiceStatus, &m_status); Where m_status is of SERVICE_STATUS type and initialized by : m_status.dwServiceType = SERVICE_WIN32_OWN_PROCESS|SERVICE_INTERACTIVE_PROCESS; m_status.dwCurrentState = SERVICE_STOPPED; m_status.dwControlsAccepted = SERVICE_ACCEPT_STOP|SERVICE_ACCEPT_SHUTDOWN; m_status.dwWin32ExitCode = 0; m_status.dwServiceSpecificExitCode = 0; m_status.dwCheckPoint = 0; m_status.dwWaitHint = 0; and in Handler function of my Service handle SERVICE_CONTROL_SHUTDOWN which has following code char chComputerName[512]; DWORD dwBuff = 512; GetComputerName(chComputerName,&dwBuff); switch (dwOpcode) { case SERVICE_CONTROL_STOP: SetServiceStatus(SERVICE_STOP_PENDING); Alive = true; iscmcontrol = 3; PostThreadMessage(dwThreadID, WM_QUIT, 0, 0); break; case SERVICE_CONTROL_PAUSE: Alive = false; iscmcontrol = 1; break; case SERVICE_CONTROL_CONTINUE: Alive = false; iscmcontrol = 0; break; case SERVICE_CONTROL_INTERROGATE: break; case SERVICE_CONTROL_SHUTDOWN: CoInitialize( NULL ); AbortShutdown(chComputerName); CoUninitialize(); Alive = true; iscmcontrol = 2; break; default: LogEvent(_T("Bad service request")); } If you want the sample code and personally see what is the problem please let me know your email address I will send it to you .

Hello Covean, Did you recieve my mail having the sample code?? Kushagra

Yes I received your code and after some changes (for VS2008 and Vista) I has installed it. Now I'm try to get it to work.
Ok . I hope it works :) Kushagra

Any luck with the code? Regards, Kushagra

What OS to you use? Cause on Vista I do not find any way to block the shutdown (ShutdownBlockReasonCreate needs a window...). But the service itself works fine. Here some eventlog-output: SetServiceStatus Succeed Service started SetServiceStatus Succeed SERVICE_CONTROL_SHUTDOWN (<- shutdown event caught) AbortSystemShutdown failed! Error=1115 (<- means shutdown already in progress, very funny errorcode :) ) The only thing left is to stop the shutdown. On WinXP your code should work. How do you test your service? You can just catch this event if your app really runs as service in debug mode you will never see this event. Here some code-changes I made (but nothing very special): 1. The "problem" that your SetServiceStatus always "fails":
void ...SetServiceStatus(DWORD dwState)
{
if (::SetServiceStatus(m_hServiceStatus, &m_status) == TRUE)
{
// ...
LogEvent(TEXT("SetServiceStatus Failed"));
}
else
{
// ...
LogEvent(TEXT("SetServiceStatus Failed"));
}
}---> copy & paste is not always your friend. :laugh: 2. In "...::Handler(...)" I made some changes to get more eventlog entries:
switch (dwOpcode)
{
case SERVICE_CONTROL_STOP:
LogEvent(_T("SERVICE_CONTROL_STOP"));
//...
break;
case SERVICE_CONTROL_PAUSE:
LogEvent(_T("SERVICE_CONTROL_PAUSE"));
break;
case SERVICE_CONTROL_CONTINUE:
LogEvent(_T("SERVICE_CONTROL_CONTINUE"));
break;
case SERVICE_CONTROL_INTERROGATE:
LogEvent(_T("SERVICE_CONTROL_INTERROGATE"));
break;
case SERVICE_CONTROL_SHUTDOWN:
LogEvent(_T("SERVICE_CONTROL_SHUTDOWN"));AbortShutdown(chComputerName); break; //...}
3. AbortShutdown changes: (AbortShutdown is now part of your Module class, just for LogEvent)
BOOL ...::AbortShutdown(LPTSTR lpMachineName)
{
HANDLE hToken; // handle to process token
TOKEN_PRIVILEGES tkp; // pointer to token structureBOOL fResult; // system shutdown flag// Get the current process token handle so we can get shutdown
// privilege.
if (!OpenProcessToken(GetCurrentProcess(),
TOKEN_ADJUST_PRIVILEGES | TOKEN_QUERY, &hToken))
{
// TRACE("OpenProcessToken failed.\n");
LogEvent(TEXT("OpenProcessToken failed"));return false; } // Get the LUID for shutdown privilege. -

Sorry but after I read some information on this, I don't believe, that you will be able to abort this kind of shutdown. But maybe someone else has an idea.
Even I couldn't find any way to do the same . Windows can be harsh to us some times :( . Still I am looking for some tweaks to achieve it . Will let you know if I found some . Regards, Kushagra
