STOP/START service

The link has JScript syntax for the same thing.  Use this for your C#Script.

function Test() 

{

  StopService(".", "TestComplete 7 Service");

  Delay(10000);

  StartService(".", "TestComplete 7 Service");  

}


function StartService(computerName, serviceName)

{

  var service = GetService(computerName, serviceName);

  if (service == null) {

    Log.Warning("The " + serviceName + " service on the " + computerName + 

                " computer was not found");

  }

  else

    service.StartService();

}


function StopService(computerName, serviceName)

{

  var service = GetService(computerName, serviceName);

  if (service == null) {

    Log.Warning("The " + serviceName + " service on the " + computerName +

                " computer was not found");

  }

  else

    service.StopService();

}


function GetService(computerName, serviceName)

{

  var wmiService, objectsList, eObjectsList, item, sysID;

  wmiService = GetObject("WinMgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\\\" + 

                          computerName + "\\root\\cimv2");

  objectsList = wmiService.InstancesOf("Win32_Service");

  if (objectsList.Count > 0) {  

    eObjectsList = new Enumerator(objectsList);

    for (; !eObjectsList.atEnd(); eObjectsList.moveNext()) {

      item = eObjectsList.item();

      if (item.Name == serviceName)

        return item;

    }

  }

return null;

}

VBScript is an entirely different syntax than C#Script so they are incompatible.



However, for TestComplete, C#Script, C++Script, and JScript all use the same parsing/syntax engine for interpreting code.  You can write using C# syntax or JScript syntax and TC works with either one.

What script are you pasting in?  There's no "subs" in C#Script... I'm assuming you copied in the JScript code from that article.



What exactly is the error message you're getting and on what line of code?

yes that's what i did.

i need to stop a service and i didn't find any other way to do that except the example you gave which is in VBScript and i copied it.

the error message i'm getting is - see attached file

Hoo cool thanks didn't know that JS can work with C#Script and VBS can't

Thanks
