I use the template from Win32::Daemon::Simple to create a service in Windows XP. In the service loop, I put my code where the program will create a SSL connection to the SSL server using IO::Socket::SSL and send the log to the server. However, I successfully create the service in the registry. The service just could not be started! Is that the Win32::Deamon::Simple is limited to only getting log from the windows services? I m a dummy in this. Pls help
