this is the error message I always get when I try to install/run a service from within cygwin. However when I next reboot it comes up fine, and subsequently it does as well. This is actually a known Windows problem, I saw it somewhere on the web. What they say is to ignore the error as it is informaitonal only and the service may still start. I don't subscribe to that viewpoint.
