I am using below command to create a service on windows server 2019 . Service is being created but after start unable to run the service.
sc.exe create Prometheus binPath= "`"C:\Prometheus\prometheus-3.4.0.windows-amd64\prometheus.exe`" --config.file=C:\Prometheus\prometheus-3.4.0.windows-amd64\prometheus.yml --log.level=debug --enable-feature=agent" start= auto Start-Service -Name Prometheus In the event log i am getting below error. TimeGenerated EntryType Message ------------- --------- ------- 6/18/2025 4:21:15 AM Error The Prometheus service failed to start due to the following error: ... 6/18/2025 4:21:15 AM Error A timeout was reached (30000 milliseconds) while waiting for the Prometheus service to connect. Also i am not getting any log in the prometheus query log. When i am running the same executable as a stand alone process or windows wrapper(as a service) i am able run that. Any idea what could be the issue here. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prometheus Users" group.
