win32_create_service Creates a new service entry in the SCM database &reftitle.description; mixedwin32_create_service arraydetails stringmachine &reftitle.parameters; details An array of service details: service The short name of the service. This is the name that you will use to control the service using the net command. The service must be unique (no two services can share the same name), and, ideally, should avoid having spaces in the name. display The display name of the service. This is the name that you will see in the Services Applet. description The long description of the service. This is the description that you will see in the Services Applet. user The name of the user account under which you want the service to run. If omitted, the service will run as the LocalSystem account. If the username is specified, you must also provide a password. password The password that corresponds to the user. path The full path to the executable module that will be launched when the service is started. If omitted, the path to the current PHP process will be used. params Command line parameters to pass to the service when it starts. If you want to run a PHP script as the service, then the first parameter should be the full path to the PHP script that you intend to run. If the script name or path contains spaces, then wrap the full path to the PHP script with ". load_order Controls the load_order. This is not yet fully supported. svc_type Sets the service type. If omitted, the default value is WIN32_SERVICE_WIN32_OWN_PROCESS. Don't change this unless you know what you're doing. start_type Specifies how the service should be started. The default is WIN32_SERVICE_AUTO_START which means the service will be launched when the machine starts up. error_control Informs the SCM what it should do when it detects a problem with the service. The default is WIN32_SERVER_ERROR_IGNORE. Changing this value is not yet fully supported. delayed_start If delayed_start is set to &true;, then this will inform the SCM that this service should be started after other auto-start services are started plus a short delay. Any service can be marked as a delayed auto-start service; however, this setting has no effect unless the service's start_type is WIN32_SERVICE_AUTO_START. This setting is only applicable on Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 or greater. base_priority To reduce the impact on processor utilisation, it may be necessary to set a base priority lower than normal. The base_priority can be set to one of the constants define in Win32 Base Priority Classes. machine The optional machine name on which you want to create a service. If omitted, it will use the local machine. &reftitle.returnvalues; &win32service.noerror.false.error; &reftitle.examples; Create a service with the short name 'dummyphp'.
