Re: Re: PyDS as a service

It almost got it working. I downloaded  
http://simon.bofh.ms/~gb/toolserver-snapshot.tar.gz , grabbed 
tsctl-win32.py and put it in my PyDS folder as PyDS-win32.py.

I then replaced all occurences of  'tsctl' with 'PyDS-start' and 
'TooFPy' with 'PyDS' and changed the service description.

I removed the following line:
from Toolserver.Config import config

And finally I removed '-c start' from the startcommand (3rd line from 
bottom)

The service installs perfectly, but doesn't want to start. I guess it 
has something to do with the absence of the HOME envrionment variable.

This is what I get in \PyDS\.PyDS\log\errors:
Exception in thread Thread-13:
