Hi Bertram,
Great, I'm glad you got things up and running. However, you didn't really
follow my instructions.

Yes. I didn't say to use sc to install rexapi as a service. I said to use
the -i flag with rxapi.
What you should do now is use sc to uninstall rxapi. Do that so that you
are uninstalling the service using the same method as it was uninstalled.
Then use rxapi to install itself as a service. The code in rxapi is
written to install the service with the proper settings.

marked with a "#"
C:\work>sc delete rxapi
C:\work>sc query rxapi # to ensure it is uninstalled
C:\work>rxapi /i # installs rxapi as a service
C:\work>sc query rxapi # to ensure it is now installed
When you do the sc query rxapi, if it says it is installed bu not running
then do:
C:\work>sc start rxapi
=========================
C:\work>sc query rxapi
SERVICE_NAME: rxapi

WIN32_EXIT_CODE : 0 (0x0)

C:\work>sc start rxapi

rxapi will not start when the system boots up.
