Being new at uniGUI I created one of my first system in desktop mode. Now I want to take that same application and get it running under a Windows service. If I create a new service type application with nothing in it, it looks like the app is launched using this code if not Application.DelayInitialize or Application.Installing then Application.Initialize; Application.CreateForm(TUniServiceModule, UniServiceModule); Application.Run; From an earlier post, I have set up my project with DEFINES like this When running in VCL, this it how things are started and all works well {$IFDEF UNIGUI_VCL} ReportMemoryLeaksOnShutdown:=True; // Optional. Application.Initialize; TUniServerModule.Create(Application); Application.CreateForm(TUniServiceModule, UniServiceModule); Application.Run; {$ENDIF} When running as a service, I'm assuming this is how things are started. {$IFDEF UNIGUI_SERVICE} if not Application.DelayInitialize or Application.Installing then Application.Initialize; Application.CreateForm(TMyServiceClass, MyServiceClass); // Get from your service module. Application.Run; {$ENDIF} I'm assuming that I have to kick off the project through the ServiceModule? I'm not sure what to change this line to: Application.CreateForm(TMyServiceClass, MyServiceClass); // Get from your service module. If I change to this, and I open the application, I just get a blank browser and it looks hung. Application.CreateForm(TUniServiceModule, UniServiceModule); BTW: I was able to get the application installed as a service and am able to start and stop the server without issues.
