How do I get a service to run when the server starts up?

In the developer select the package in which the service resides and go to the file menu and click open. It opens a window in that window click on the startup/shutdown/replication serices tab. It shows all the services that package contains.Select whatever service you want to start at serverstartup and add it…

Thanks, I found it. I didnt expect to have to open a package when it looks open in the file view.

Sam,

Just a point of caution… the above procedure will make your service the startup service of the package… which means the service will be executed every time the package loads, which happens whenever you

1. Start the server
2. Enable the package
3. Reload the package.

If packages are enabled at the server startup then these startup services also start to run.
