I have had several issues, and not sure if this is still more, I have the echoservice running from a terminal, using ./echoservice , it comes up Service running with backend: "standard", Started echo server on port 36985, so when I run EchoControl, I was thinking the name would be echoservice, or even echoservice.service, then I tired the port number, after that its just a guessing game, but it could not find it, can you explain how it should work, please.

I am trying to write a simple QtHttpServer instanced, and want to start, stop, pause, resume, reload, the normal things, and I need the stop, pause, and was wondering if you had any example that might help, I have searched the internet, and cannot find much. I ask because I saw you have an example of it in your Repo, which I am checking out.

Thanks, and sorry about the two issues, other than that the Qt Online installation seemed to work fine, that bash file pointed the finger at Qt, but I was using the Arch Linux AUR version, and it too was different, so it was confusing me, I tried reinstalling, no help, removing it and installing the Official Qt version from the Arch Linux Manjaro Repo fixed everything, except this issue, I think its a user error if you ask me since I have no idea what the name should be.

The standard backend is meant as fallback or for testing your application without the systems service framework. It is not meant to be used in production.

Since no service framework is used, the name is the executable that you run - the path to the binary. That should be documented somewhere, but since I could not find it, I should add it somewhere it can be found.

For all other services, the name is whatever you register the service as in the framework. For example, with systemd, it's the unit name and on windows, whatever you call it when running sc create.

I hope I was able to help you!

I am working on a Wiki for where I will be using your project, it will take a while to complete, the link is here if you are interested in it: https://github.com/Light-Wizzard/WeBookServer/wiki/System.d

I will try my best to write an accurate tutorial on how to use Echo Server and Contol, I will let you know when its completed, or if I run into something I do not know, and feel free to post issues with it, and my goal would be for you to copy it and post it at your site, so I will leave out any personal information or anything related to my site, including links, such that it only relates to your site, my goal is to write it so I better understand it before moving on, as well as to start a good start for a Tutorial on how to use it an as well as extend it for your use, for your site, so others can find this information useful, and also because I asked you to write a Wiki, and I feel I should help if I can.
