a3gill 10 Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Hello, I like the ease of controlling the server from the systray app, is there any chance that it can run alongside a server that is running as a service? Perhaps a switch in the config file, RunAsService, that would tell the systray app to control a service instance instead of running one as a new process. Thanks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37253 Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Yes i think this is a good idea, but it's not a very high priority. We do accept pull requests though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a3gill 10 Posted July 19, 2014 Author Share Posted July 19, 2014 OK, thanks. Also, and I am not sure if this is exactly related, but It seems that the web app lost the ability to restart the server when I switched to running as service. It would be nice to have that. For example, at work and needing a restart instead of having to remote in and restart the Windows service, it would be nice to trigger that from the web app. Thanks.

Luke 37253 Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Yes, that's disabled, and its' another thing we'd like to be able to do as well. It's not as easy as it seems when running as a service. If some community member can step up and help, it will get done sooner rather than later. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a3gill 10 Posted July 19, 2014 Author Share Posted July 19, 2014 Great! I'd be happy to look into it. Work is pretty all-consuming at the moment, but when time frees up a little I will certainly have a look. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starlionblue 80 Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I can't code but I'd add my vote to this pair of features. Controlling the service both through SyStray and the dashboard would save me a lot of typing "services.msc". I've created batch files and shortcuts but since restarting a service requires elevation its all a bit of a PITA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
