Subject: possible to run XWin as windows service?
Date: Thu, 26 Jul 2012 22:33:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <006501cd6b7e$4edcffd0$ec96ff70$@de> (raw)

Hi,

I would like to start XWin automatically on Windows startup (Windows user login).
I couldn't find any hint in the manual.

Is it possible to run (and automatically start) XWin as windows service?
I tried these attempts, but they don't work:

sc create testabc1 binpath= "D:\Programme\cygwin\bin\startxwin.exe -- /bin/XWin -clipboard -emulate3buttons 100 -nounixkill
-nowinkill -xkboptions nbsp:level3" displayname= "testabc1" start= demand

sc create testabc2 binpath= "D:\Programme\cygwin\bin\XWin.exe -clipboard -emulate3buttons 100 -nounixkill -nowinkill -xkboptions
nbsp:level3" displayname= "testabc2" start= demand


... they all come with the same error message on startup:

sc start testabc2
[SC] StartService FEHLER 1053:
Der Dienst antwortete nicht rechtzeitig auf die Start- oder Steuerungsanforderung.


Thank you very much for ideas!

Regards,
  Paul
