Hi Hugo,

As per documentation I ran

cygrunsrv.exe -I hiawatha -d "Hiawatha webserver" -f "Secure and advanced webserver" -p "<HIAWATHA_INSTALL_DIR>\program\hiawatha.exe" -a "-d"

but I when I tried to start the service I get the following error:

The Hiawatha webserver service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs.

I looked at the windows even viewer but nothing in teresting that can help in there..

Can you help?

You have to replace <HIAWATHA_INSTALL_DIR> with the path of where Hiawatha is installed.

Hi Hugo,
Yes I did that..
Was been lazy and sopy the doc.

Did you start the CMD window, from which you ran that command, as Administrator?

Yes I did run CMD as administrator.
I tried on 2 laptops and I have the same error on both.

Does it work when you run the Service.bat script as Administrator?

Hi Hugo,

Thank you for getting back to me....
Yes all work fine when using the script that come in the zip file.
Running Service.bat script as Administrator is all good.
I just want Hiawatha to start my my computer start

Hi Hugo,
Can you please advise any further. On this matter?
I'm running windows 7 and windows 10 laptop

It's not working? In a previous post, you said 'Running Service.bat script as Administrator is all good.'. I understood that it's all working now, but apparently not.

If you run the Service.bat script as Administrator and select [I]nstall, what happens then?
