Running server as a service - weezel - 15.12.2008

Hi!

i recently set up the server software on my dedicated machine, and rather than have the ugly dos window (its a server 2003 box) id like it to run in the backround. how might i achieve this ? the server restarts sometimes for updates and id like the samp server to run on boot etc.

thanks in advance

There are a few service managers out there, such as FireDaemon. If you want a simple solution you could make the following batch file:

Код:

:RUNSERVER
echo Starting Server...
samp-server
echo Server Exited, Restarting...
GOTO RUNSERVER

While it won't get rid of the ugly window, it will automatically restart on crash.

I thought there was a program to make the server.exe run in the background.

I use TrayIt to place it as an icon in the systembar
