service (status: automatic) does NOT start op when rebooting

[aspijker]

Hello,

I have added a service and gave the status automatic, but now it is not starting when I reboot the server. Any idea how to fix this?

under what user context is this service running; is it LocalSystemAccount or are you using another account. If you are using another account, check to make sure that it has the appropriate rights.
Also your service may depend on other services in order to start.
Hope this helps.

There should be an error in event viewer that will point you in the right direction. The source will probably be the Service Control Manager.

Yes, i checked the event viewer and was able to solve the problem!

Thanks for helping me out!
