Simply Register as a Service

Post by kikistan »

Hello

For Win7 or Win 2008 you don't need ressource kit

just open a command prompt with administration rights:

in X64
sc create SABnzbd binpath= "C:\Program Files (x86)\SABnzbd\SABnzbd.exe" start= auto depend= "Tcpip"

in x86
sc create SABnzbd binpath= "C:\Program Files\SABnzbd\SABnzbd.exe" start= auto depend= "Tcpip"

then use the registry setting in the wiki

Great tip, thank you.
BTW: release 0.6.0 will have full service support, making it even easier.

If you need proper service support, join the Alpha program for 0.6.0.
