FileSystem监视程序路径不起作用

Question

I have created C# windows service to monitor the active directory password changes. Whenever password changes, the service will call a webservice and return result. If service returns not returns success, the filewatcher directry create a textfile for the that; otherwise not. When service starts, if there is any pending request, it will process.

//Whenever file created... Synchronize the pending requests. When active direcory changes occur it will create files. If request is suucessfull delte the created file otherwise not

When I change the `path. The Filewatchercreated event is not firing. Like changing passwords with any other name Data or something like that. If anyone can please help me to fix the issue.

Answer 1

Did you remember to set the notify filters somewhere?

I can't see where your creating the watcher but It could be that:

NotifyFilter = NotifyFilters.LastWrite | NotifyFilters.LastAccess | NotifyFilters.Attributes;

Answer 2

with all of the annoying issues I have had over the past with the filewatcher, like this one, I have done away with it in all of my code and gone back to the trusty old timer and poll the directory. It's worked 100% of the time for me and picks p the files when the service was not running. I hope that helps.
