Thanks - I will have to wait to try this after hours as the server is in production.
BMC actually did give me the correct syntax to create the service: armaild.bat install "service name" "Full path to Java.dll" server version "Full path to aremail installation folder" or in my case: armaild.bat install "BMC Email Engine - rwrmdyah202" "C:\program files\java\jre6\bin\java.dll" 75 "D:\program files\bmc software\arsystem\aremail" Unfortunately the lack of service was just a symptom of a general email engine failure. Eventually I installed the email engine on another server.

Here is what I got from BMC that finally fixed it. I delete most of the references to email in this file and tried again without trying to configure incoming during the installer but after it was installed. The user name and password are likely in the install configuration file ARSystemInstalledConfiguration.xml. This file is in the directory where AR Server is being installed. Please delete it and then retry the install. It should work this time around. ________________________________ From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of Sharon Menachem Sent: Saturday, February 19, 2011 11:55 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: No Email Service on Installation ** ~f3 resolves to the directory where aremail is installed. Chris, I have been on the phone with someone from BMC for the past 2 hours among other trying to get the service created manually but it just isn't working. Right now email is running using emailstart.bat and with Outlook open it even manages to parse the emails into the system. I'll wait and see what 2nd level support has to offer.

I have installed and reinstalled over and over and no matter what I do the email service is not installed. The email engine itself is installed as I can send out an email from remedy. However without the service I don't have incoming email. I have tried to create a service using the armaild.bat but all it does is run lines and lines of code and it does nothing. This is the syntax of the armaild.bat file that I am using: "armaild.bat" -install "BMC Remedy Email Engine - rwrmdyah202" "C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\java.dll"-Djava.library.path="d:\program files\bmc software\arsystem\aremail" -Djava.class.path="%~f3\emaildaemon.jar;%~f3\commons-configuration-1.3.jar;%~f3\commons-beanutils.jar;%~f3\commons-collections-3.2.jar;%~f3\commons-digester-1.7.jar;%~f3\commons-lang-2.2.jar;%~f3\icu4j.jar;%~f3\spring.jar;%~f3\commons-logging-1.1.jar;%~f3\commons-codec-1.3.jar;%~f3\Logger.jar;%~f3\log4j-1.2.14.jar;%~f3\arapi%4.jar;%~f3\arutil%4.jar;%~f3\arrpc%4.jar;%~f3\oncrpc.jar;%~f3\arcmn%4.jar;%~f3\activation.jar;%~f3\mail.jar;%~f3\imap.jar;%~f3\smtp.jar;%~f3\pop3.jar;%~f3\armapi%4.jar;%~f3;." -start com.bmc.arsys.emaildaemon.EmailDaemon -out "%~f3\logs\stdout.log" -err "%~f3\logs\stderr.log" -current "d:\program files\bmc software\arsystem\aremail" What am I doing wrong?
