Bug ID: 49319
           Summary: Services don't stop when the application stops (macOS
                    only)
           Product: Wine
           Version: 5.7
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wineserver
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]
      Distribution: ---

Hello,

Wine 5.7 x64, macOS Catalina 10.15.5

I have a prefix with an application installed and a Windows service registered.
When I run the application, the service starts. But when I close the
application, the service doesn't stop and the processes wineserver and
wine64-preloader are still running.
Even if I call wineboot -s, the service doesn't stop.

I tested with the same application and service on Ubuntu 20.04, and closing the
application stops the service and all the processes exit.

So the problem looks specific to macOS.

Any idea to help understanding what is wrong?

Regards,

Michel Terrisse

I forgot to say that if I call
  net stop myservicename
the service stops correctly. And if I close the application after that, all the
processes exit including wineserver.

Created attachment 67386
  --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=67386
A minimal Windows service

I attached MyService.exe
Here are steps to reproduce the problem:
- run wine64 cmd.exe
- MyService.exe -Install
- exit
This closes the command line so the service should stop.
But look at the running processes, wineserver and wine64-preloader are still
running.
- run wine64 cmd.exe
- MyService -Stop (or net stop MyService)
- exit
This time the processes wineserver and wine64-preloader stop after a few
seconds.

I hope this helps,

I could find an old computer with macOS Sierra installed.
I have installed XQuartz and wine 5.7 and I can reproduce the problem.

So it looks like the problem is present for macOS, all versions but not for
Linux, all versions (as far as I know).

--- Comment #4 from Michel Terrisse  ---
I could notice something important: the service is a console application and it
calls AllocConsole() to be able to write to the console (this is not usefull
here but for other applications that share the same code).

If I comment the call to AllocConsole() and all the lines that write to the
console, the problem disappears.

So a correct title for this ticket could be:
  Services that call AllocConsole() don't stop when the application stops
(macOS only)

Does this still occur in Wine 9.7 or later?

If so, do you have an example application that can be tested?
