I have no experience writing batch scripts, but I was wondering if there was a way to install a .NET Windows service using installutil.exe
using such a script, or uninstall the service if it is already installed, ideally with some kind of confirmation that I actually would like to perform the uninstall (e.g. press y to uninstall).
Here are some details:
C:\Program Files\Data Service
directoryprogram.log
, also in this directory) after the service has been installedC:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727
If you feel this could be done in a better way it would be nice to hear other suggestions. I could always write a service installer but that is not a priority.
This is the batch files I used to install.
@ECHO OFF
REM The following directory is for .NET 2.0
set DOTNETFX2=%SystemRoot%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727
set PATH=%PATH%;%DOTNETFX2%
echo Installing MyService...
echo ---------------------------------------------------
InstallUtil /i MyService.exe
echo ---------------------------------------------------
echo Done.
pause
To Uninstall I used the following:
@ECHO OFF
REM The following directory is for .NET 2.0
set DOTNETFX2=%SystemRoot%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727
set PATH=%PATH%;%DOTNETFX2%
echo Uninstalling MyService...
echo ---------------------------------------------------
InstallUtil /u MyService.exe
echo ---------------------------------------------------
echo Done
