0001913: Cannot get my Resin installation to run as a Windows Service
I can invoke httpd.exe to run Resin interactively, but using the same script to install as a service (i.e. same CLASSPATH), the watchdog service starts, but my Resin server never does. I can see a javaw.exe process start momentarily in the task manager but it quickly goes away. Also, I can't find any log files to determine why it's not starting. I've passed in the -stdout and -stderr arguments when installing the service, but the files I point to are never created.

In the default installation, I can start Resin as a service, but I do not see any stdout/stderr files whether or not I pass in the -stdout/-stderr overrides.

I figured this one out. My resin.conf had a dependency on an environment variable that wasn't present when running as a service. This issue can be closed.
