I have followed exactly same steps as mentioned in their documentation. But, getting error when trying to start service. "Error 1053: Service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion"
Anyone help me to resolve this issue or suggestion any alternative to run jar file as window service will be highly appreciated.
Maybe your problem is related to have Java 7 and Java 8 installed. Removing either version solve the issue.
There is an alternative solution described here that allows to keep both version in the machine.
Downgrading to Java 7 resolved this issue for me. Literally removing Java 8. Seems to be a bug in the YAJSW,
Any other solution is kindly welcomed
