how to create text file in window service
- by angel ansari
Hi,
I have an XML file
<config>
<ServiceName>autorunquery</ServiceName>
<DBConnection>
<server>servername</server>
<user>xyz</user>
<password>klM#2bs</password>
<initialcatelog>TEST</initialcatelog>
</DBConnection>
<Log>
<logfilename>d:\testlogfile.txt</logfilename>
</Log>
<Frequency>
<value>10</value>
<unit>minute</unit>
</Frequency>
<CheckQuery>select * from credit_debit1 where station='Corporate'</CheckQuery>
<Queries total="3">
<Query id="1">Update credit_debit1 set station='xxx' where id=2</Query>
<Query id="2">Update credit_debit1 set station='xxx' where id=4</Query>
<Query id="3">Update credit_debit1 set station='xxx' where id=9</Query>
</Queries>
</config>
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Linq;
using System.ServiceProcess;
using System.Text;
using System.IO;
using System.Xml;
namespace Service1
{
public partial class Service1 : ServiceBase
{
XmlTextReader reader = null;
string path = null;
FileStream fs = null;
StreamWriter sw = null;
public Service1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
protected override void OnStart(string[] args)
{
timer1.Enabled = true;
timer1.Interval = 10000;
timer1.Start();
logfile("start service");
}
protected override void OnStop()
{
timer1.Enabled = false;
timer1.Stop();
logfile("stop service");
}
private void logfile(string content)
{
try
{
reader = new XmlTextReader("queryconfig.xml");//xml file name which is in current directory
if (reader.ReadToFollowing("logfilename"))
{
path = reader.ReadElementContentAsString();
}
fs = new FileStream(path, FileMode.Append, FileAccess.Write);
sw = new StreamWriter(fs);
sw.Write(content);
sw.WriteLine(DateTime.Now.ToString());
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
sw.Write(ex.ToString());
throw;
}
finally
{
if (reader != null)
reader.Close();
if (sw != null)
sw.Close();
if (fs != null)
fs.Close();
}
}
}
}
My problem is that the file is not created.
