Hi Matt, I've checked the code - what is probably happening is an unexpected exception has been thrown and this completely kills the service. Like Phil said, check the application log and you should see an error for CCService.
There should always be something in the log for the service - it might be the service is not logging in the location you are expecting. The location of the log file is set as part of the log4net configuration. In the default configuration there is an appender called RollingFileAppender - the file element contains where the log is written to. There is a appSetting called ServerLogFilePath, this is just so CC.NET knows where to read the log from (yes, this is a duplicate, but needed because of Log4Net). As for the underlying cause, my initial guess is you're using a mapped drive (e.g. to a network drive) based on the 'r:\'. The service is running under an account that either doesn't have this drive mapped, or doesn't have access to it. Check in the application log and see what error is there - you can always post the error if it doesn't make any sense.
