I've had this same problem from with-in a service. I can throw the error and stop the service, but windows does not restart it. Though the option to restart it is set. The problem may be that the option to restart the service is only invoked if the service actually stops abnormally, so maybe you shouldn't trap the error at all.
I worked around it by having another service monitor the service and re-start it. Kind of dumb, but it works. bob ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: "Glenn Frankel" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: "dotnet" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Mon, 16 Dec 2002 08:11:36 -0800 >I have a Windows Service that I have created in C# which calls a DB every >few seconds and then performs some processing.
