[python-win32] how to run python in background on Windows ?

[Whittingham, Thomas]

This may be obvious but did you set up the service to start
automatically?  In the same dialog boxes that let you start/stop Windows
services you can specify whether a service should run at startup.

Subject: [python-win32] how to run python in background on Windows ?

Hi,

I was trying to run my python program as a server in background
on Windows, but I failed.

On Unix, I can do :
% python myscript.py &

On Windows, I use Windows' service to start/stop
the python. In the same login session, I got success,
I can see python program from TaskManager.
but when I log out and log in again, my python server
is gone, I can not see python program from TaskManager.

Is there anyone there knowing how to run python
in background as Windows' service ?

best regards.
Michael Li
