Help: My service is not starting!

Service won't start

for starters this part is wrong


you should add the current time like this


otherwise the time you're setting is way off and that's why the service won't start at the set time!

hope this helps!

Service won't start

But you are right it won't start, I got this in the unfiltered logs

Unable to start service Intent { flg=0x4 cmp=mr.parcon.app/.stopnet (has extras) }: not found

Click to expand...

Cheers!

Solved - I should read more!

@Walterf25,

thanks for your help. there were two problems stopping the app.
1. I had do not overwrite manifest clicked (due to flight mode) and then added a service, can't work!

2. The service reads the times from a file into a map. Forgot to open the file, hence your error.

The main problem was that I had no error, nothing, the service just didn't start. After correcting problem 1, I got your error and was able to solve it.

I am not finished but its getting there.
Thanks again for your help

ps. The variable "TimeSet" is actually only used to populate the label. The time is calculated in the sub ParseDates and is correct.

Best regards
Mark
