i assume this is not a permissions issue does your main class implement org.apache.commons.daemon.Daemon?
does your main class override init method? @Override public void init(DaemonContext dc) throws DaemonInitException, Exception does your main class override start method? @Override public void start() throws Exception does your classpath contain commons-daemon AND your jar e.g. CLASSPATH="/usr/share/java/commons-daemon.jar":"/path/to/your.jar" did you run jsvc.exe with -home parameter and -cp param e.g. jsvc -home "$JAVA_HOME -cp $CLASSPATH mypackage.myClass ? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7687159/how-to-convert-a-java-program-to-daemon-with-jsvc ?
