Zeos in TService

Hello,

I'm trying to make SERVICE that does some work to DB. The problem is that I get "Requested database driver was not found" then I try to do Connected := true. I copyed the needed dll's to the project folder and to the windows\system32 but still no connection. What to do? I even tried to SetCurrentDir( ) to the directory where DLL are... Same result.

Zeos 6.6.2-RC
Delphi 2006
PostgreSQL 8.0

Thank you in advance.

Have you set the Protocol property of the connection?

Sure, I did. When I do connect in design mode its all OK, but after building the project and then starting the service I get the error mentioned above.

I'm afraid this will need study of the search path used by Windows services. Can you also tell what OS version you are running on?

Works fine with me (D7, pgslq8.1 and 8.2) with DLLs in Windows\System32 directory but, some time ago, I encountered machines with invalid / broken ssleay32.dll and libeay32.dll which caused me similar problem. I "discovered" it because they have too high version numbers, like 1.x.x.x.

Maybe you should check dlls throughly...

trupka - could you send me your test project. I would test it on my computer. My email: kosh.mariux at gmail.com

Wild_Pointer - I don't have useful test project but I can send you "real" service application with removed unnecessary parts. Just give me few hours...
