Hi ,
   I have a remote server which works fine. The Client ans server work with
no problem.

However when i convert the server to a windows service i run into problems.
The service installs fine and starts fine too. It also seems to register the
channels and create the well know types.  

However when i try to access the server using the client it throws an
exception
"Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation." This is
precisely thrown when the proxy object on the client tries to access a
property or method from the remote server. The server itself does not throw
any errors.

Below is the server code for OnStart.

Please can someone give me any clues of what could be happening?

protected override void OnStart(string[] args)
{
// TODO: Add code here to start your service.           
try
{
           
fs = new StreamWriter(new
System.IO.FileStream("C:\\temp\\mcTest.txt",FileMode.Append ));
           
BinaryServerFormatterSinkProvider provider = new
BinaryServerFormatterSinkProvider();
provider.TypeFilterLevel = TypeFilterLevel.Full;

IDictionary props = new Hashtable();
props["port"] = 8085;
TcpChannel myChannel = new TcpChannel(props, null, provider);
fs.WriteLine("port");
               
//register channel
ChannelServices.RegisterChannel(myChannel);

fs.WriteLine("RegisterChannel");

//Register services
RemotingConfiguration.ApplicationName = "AServer";
RemotingConfiguration.Configure(System.AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory.ToString() +   "AServer.exe.config");            
RemotingConfiguration.RegisterWellKnownServiceType(
                    typeof(RemoteObject),
                    "RemoteObject",
                WellKnownObjectMode.Singleton);
               
                fs.Close();
}
catch(Exception err)
{
if (fs !=null)               
{
fs.Close();
}
       
fs = new StreamWriter(new
System.IO.FileStream("C:\\temp\\mcTest.txt",FileMode.Append));
fs.WriteLine(err.Message );               
fs.Close();
   
            }
finally
    {
        fs = new StreamWriter(new
System.IO.FileStream("C:\\temp\\mcTest.txt",FileMode.Append));
fs.WriteLine("finally" );               
fs.Close();
}

           

           
        }
