stop a service with nsSCM
Hello,
I have a problem with the nsSCM-Plugin.
I install my own service and than I start this service with following command:
nsSCM::Start/NOUNLOAD"$dienstName"
In the next line I´d to check the status with following command:
nsSCM::QueryStatus/NOUNLOAD"$dienstName"
It doesn´t work. When I does not use /NOUNLOAD in the Start-Commandline it works.
Why?
In the next section I try to stop the service. It returns error when I use the NOUNLOAD-Flag, it returns "success" when I don´t use the /NOUNLOAD-Flag but it don´t stop really.
Have anybody an idea?

Does nsSCM tell you specifically to use /NOUNLOAD?

Yes, it does.

/NOUNLOAD only effects, that the .dll is not deleted in the Plugins-Dir or not?

/NOUNLOAD makes the installer not use FreeLibrary. According to its source code, /NOUNLOAD isn't really required. It'll just save a few operations like opening and closing the service database for each call. If it works without /NOUNLOAD, you can get rid of /NOUNLOAD.
