Hi,
I have created a service that runs fine when set to check every fre secs,
however, I set it to run every 2 hours but when I start the service it runs
only once.

This is how I am setting the 2 hours

Dim TimerItem As New System.Threading.Timer(TimerDelegate, 1, _
10000, 3600000)

Any ideas?

Thanks
 
Are you sure you are restarting the timer once you have finsihed what you
need to do in the Timer1_Tick event? Have you assigned a method to this event?

This is a sample of what I am doing

On service startup I have

Dim TimerDelegate As New Threading.TimerCallback(AddressOf ExecuteTask)

Dim TimerItem As New System.Threading.Timer(TimerDelegate, 1, _
10000, 3600000)




Protected Sub ExecuteTask(ByVal obj As Object)

If (GetFileByFtp()) = True Then

ProcessFile(sFileName)

Kill("C:\" & sFileName)

Else

Exit Sub

End If

End Sub

Thats basically what I have.
