Batch Files to Restart Services on Windows

Anybody can help me to write a bat file to backup some data from c:\program files\winair to Home directory H:\user name. I knew a little bit but not so good. Please give me some detailed information.

I know it is not safest thing to do, but is there a simple way to execute a batch file from a web page ? I want to do this for some other APIs that crash occasionally. Thanks.

I cannot run any of my programs because I have lost my MICROSETUPLIB.BAT file can you help please e-mail me ! Thanks Jason

while i run your iis restaTHE Specified service does not exit as an installed service.

Why don't you check if what you post actually works before putting it online? The MS knowledgebase specifically states that: "NOTE: For each service, there is also a DisplayName value, which is the name listed in the Services applet in Control Panel and in the messages displayed after the NET STOP and NET START commands are run. However, these Display Names cannot be used as a parameter with the NET STOP and NET START commands." http://support.microsoft.com/kb/236166 Please chekc your facts before posting such nonsense.

Regarding Sander's comment, Pete seems to have taken some time to format and comment the batch files, yet he used the wrong service name. I found that amusing. Anyway, I agree with Sander. Please test everything before you post it. It's also the responsibility of the visitors to review the syntax instead of blindly using everything as is.

This is a bit old but I need a favor.

How can I use it to restart services on a remote computer?

This is a bit old but I need a favor.

An easier solution would be to use something like Service Hawk.

Use the SC command. This is way better as the NET command is. in a CMD box type sc /?.

i like it, worked like a charm.
i actually used cfexecute to run it
but if you have cf hanging you might want to have a php script execute it, or some other language

echo off

start google.be ffs
lazy..

I used this script to start wampmysqld service on windows vista and it don't work to me
can someone help me?

ps wampmysqld is installed with wamp

Hi There. Is there also a batch to stop and restart Coldfusion 9 services?

Antoine -

You really just need to substitute in the service name from Services, for instance "ColdFusion 9 Application Server"

For CF8 I use this:

@echo off
echo Restarting ColdFusion 8...
echo ======================================================
net stop "ColdFusion 8 Application Server"
choice /T 20 /D y
net start "ColdFusion 8 Application Server"
echo ======================================================
echo ColdFusion 8 Restarted

well i guess my copy/paste carriage returns didn't come through properly.
let's try again

@echo off echo Restarting ColdFusion 8...
echo ======================================================
net stop "ColdFusion 8 Application Server"
choice /T 20 /D y
net start "ColdFusion 8 Application Server"
echo ======================================================
echo ColdFusion 8 Restarted

(if this fails to post properly, i think you can figure out where the breaks go)

To restart IIS, the most simple way is: iisreset
