i followed the example of making a win32service in Mark Hammond's book.
when i run the client i get the following error. does anyone know what this
might be from?
X:\epsp2\server\bin>PipeServiceClient.py hello there service
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "X:\epsp2\server\bin\PipeServiceClient.py", line 8, in ?
data = win32pipe.CallNamedPipe(pipeName, message, 512, 0)
pywintypes.api_error: (2, 'CallNamedPipe', 'The system cannot find the file
spec
ified.')
the client code is below, the service code is more or less word for word
from page 352.
--------------------------------------------------
import win32pipe
import sys
import string
if __name__ == '__main__':
message = string.join(sys.argv[1:])
pipeName = '\\\\.\\pipe\\ecpSpoolPipe'
data = win32pipe.CallNamedPipe(pipeName, message, 512, 0)
print "the service sent back:"
print data
