I have been banging my head against the wall with this problem for weeks :) Advice I was given was to NOT run the service with the Local system Access option selected but to create a new user account and use that. I got the client's IT dept. to create a new user account and it is selected under "This account" in Task Manager->Services->Properties->Log on.
So in the Task Manager it says the app is "Running", but in the Properties dialog, under General, it says Service status: Stopped. If I click Start it starts but then immediately reverts to Stopped. If I do not try to run the app as a service, it runs just fine, and I can connect to it from a Client on the same machine, so I'm confident that there isn't a problem with the app that's preventing it from running. I started a thread on this topic a few weeks ago and I believe I've followed the advice given there :) But still can't get it to work.
