Hi,
I am trying to stop few services for the installation of my software, One particular service is "IIS Admin Service" which depends on other service.
If I do it on command propmt writing:
net stop IISADMIN, It says:
>The following services are dependent on the IIS Admin >Service service.
>Stopping the IIS Admin Service service will also stop >these services.
>
> World Wide Web Publishing Service
> HTTP SSL
>
>Do you want to continue this operation? (Y/N) [N]:
And here I need to press Y to stop.
My problem is that while using NSIS I want to automate this process without using the command prompt. ie I want to stop this service and any other service which depend on it without asking me.
I tried following two things but did not work...
a) services::SendServiceCommand 'stop' 'IISADMIN'
b) ExecDos::exec /NOUNLOAD /SYNC '"net stop /
IISADMIN"' "Y" "$EXEDIR\execdos.log"
I would be very thankful for anybody who can let me know for a solution of this.
Problem in stopping a service.

Actually I should have search a little more on google before posting this question. The solution was easy. I am using this solution(for anyone who falls into the same trap!!)
pop $1 ;$1 contains the name of the service. ExecDos::exec /NOUNLOAD /ASYNC /DETAILED '"$vCOMSPEC" /C "net stop $1 /Y"' "" "$TEMP\output.log"
