Question by cregox · Jul 27, 2012 at 09:32 PM · windowsservice

Command line to install Unity's cache server as a service on windows

I've tried both `sc.exe` and `InstallUtil.exe`.aspx) with no success.

With SC the service is at least added. But when trying to run the service I get an error: "The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion". That happens in like 2 seconds at most. I've also tried all different types.

While InstallUtil will say "The module was expected to contain an assembly manifest...", no matter what.

Anyone can give a clue on how to install it on a windows server? Thanks!

I've successfully used nssm to install it as a service, with no problem.

Perfect! Here's what worked for me:

 nssm.exe install

then type in:

  • C:\Unity Cache Server\win\node.exe

  • "C:\Unity Cache Server\CacheServer.js"

  • Unity Cache Server

Thanks, also used nssm. Cawas' instructions didnt work, in the end I simply added the .cmd as target and did not add any arguments.
