Service Action - Properties (More)

[lockedude]

It appears that when you attempt to utilize the customization provided via the newer Properties (More) tab when Creating a windows service do not get implemented.

The service is created, but items such as Description, Delayed Auto-Start, Recovery, etc. are not set. If you perform a subsequent Change in the same Service action, these items are in fact set.

Not critical but I thought you would be interested!

Visual Build Professional 9.6

This was fixed in v9.7.

It appears that the corrective actions taken for the Properties (more) fixes included in v9.7 have created a different situation when creating a new service.

Now when creating a new service, the following contradictory error is reported and the step fails:
Creating service 'New Service Name'...
Error creating service: 'The operation completed successfully.'

The service is in fact created and properly configured successfully. However, an error is reported, but no other information is detailed in Event Viewer, etc.

I reverted back to the v9.6 install and verified the service is creating successfully and without an error. Going back to v9.7 returns to the failing state.

This has been fixed in the latest download (VisBuildAct.dll 9.7.0.4 in Help | About after installing).
