      Good Morning Everyone,

      I'm working on getting a Windows 7 machine setup to use the YAJSW software to create a windows service for the Mango applilcation.

      Setup is as follows:

      Win 7
      Mango running without issue via ma-start.
      YAJSW serviceInstall executes succesfully.
      Running runConsole will succesfully start Mango and the service tray manager.
      When trying to start the service via the Windows Service Manager, I get a 1503 Service cannot start error.

      Almighty google suggests it could be a permissions or path problem, but from the steps I've taken so far it seems I may be chasing my tail.

      Anyone have experience in getting a Windows service setup?

        Hi Brad,

        Do you get more information from attempting to run the service from the command prompt?

        net start Mango

        Assuming the name for your service in the wrapper.conf for YAJSW is 'Mango'

          Running as the current user generates this:

          System error 5 has occured.
          Access is denied.

          Running in an Administrator console generates this:

          System Error 2 has occurred.
          The system cannot find the file specified.

          The service is running as Local System which has full rights on the folder. Looks like I have a path issue.

          Thanks for the suggestion Phil. Back to the almighty google to see what I can find with the new info.

            Changed the following

            wrapper.java.command = java

            to

            wrapper.java.command = %JAVA_HOME%\\bin\\java

            And now I am receiving

            The service is not responding to the control function.

              When I did this on one of my machines, I used the wrapper.java.command as java, but my jdk's bin directory is in my environment variable "PATH"

                I've got it working now.

                I have to download the latest version 12.06 and I copied their default config and made the appropriate mods based on the original config.

                Here is the config:

                After running the installService.bat I had to edit the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\Mango\ImagePath registry key from

                java.exe -classpath C:\Mango\yajsw\wrapper.jar -Xrs -Dwrapper.service=true -Dwrapper.working.dir=C:\Mango\bin -Djna_tmpdir=C:\Mango\yajsw\bat\/../tmp -Dwrapper_home=C:\Mango\yajsw\bat\/.. -Dwrapper.config=C:\Mango\yajsw\conf\wrapper.conf -Dwrapper.additional.1x=-Xrs -Djna_tmpdir=C:\Mango\yajsw\bat\..\tmp org.rzo.yajsw.boot.WrapperServiceBooter

                to

                %JAVA_HOME%\bin\java.exe -classpath C:\Mango\yajsw\wrapper.jar -Xrs -Dwrapper.service=true -Dwrapper.working.dir=C:\Mango\bin -Djna_tmpdir=C:\Mango\yajsw\bat\/../tmp -Dwrapper_home=C:\Mango\yajsw\bat\/.. -Dwrapper.config=C:\Mango\yajsw\conf\wrapper.conf -Dwrapper.additional.1x=-Xrs -Djna_tmpdir=C:\Mango\yajsw\bat\..\tmp org.rzo.yajsw.boot.WrapperServiceBooter

                Even with the PATH variable modified, i had to point it to the full path to get it to work.

                For whatever reason it would not work for me with version 11.11.

                Thanks for the help getting pointed in the right direction.
