  • Autostart MIS on Windows

    From toddbert@21:4/159 to All on Thursday, August 08, 2019 00:57:35

    I'm running mystic on a windows server and am looking for options to
    autostart the MIS.EXE so the servers will autostart without me having to
    login and can survive a reboot. Is there away to run mystic as a windows service or an another method?

    Cheers

    I'm not sure about running MIS as a service under windows.. but I do use a batch file that will restart MIS if it closes unexpectedly and also have that tied to the start up routines of the OS to kick things off on a reboot. Would that help?

    You might want to see if you can one a utility to convert MIS.EXE to a
    service somehow.

    I just posted it in my AUTOEXEC.BAT

    You can also post it within your REGISTRY in the RUN section as well.

    that would be perfect

    I just use something like this in a bat file

    [snip]

    @Echo On

    c:
    cd\mystic

    :LOOP

    MIS server
    TIMEOUT /T 5

    GOTO LOOP

    [snip]

    Hope that helps :)

    Best, Paul
