I have a Python application that uses ConfigParser.ConfigParser()
to access a configuration file. I have created a windows service of the Python application using py2exe
. The problem that I have is that the service can only find the configuration file if I place it in windows/system32
folder. I would like to have the configuration file in the same folder where the service was installed. For example, after using py2exe
I have the following folder:
c:/temp/dist/winservice.exe
c:/temp/dist/configfile.cfg
Then I do:
winservice.exe install
But the service does not look for the configfile.cfg
in path: c:/temp/dist/
but in path: c:/windows/system32/
Is there any way to change that?
Thanks!
