+
−  cmd> sc start NAME

−Create service.
+
−===============
+
−
+
−In order to create service from any executable use ``srvany.exe`` from Windows
+
−Resource Kits 2003 (take attention to spaces after ``=``)::
+
−
+
−  cmd> sc create NAME binPath= "c:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools\srvany.exe" ^
+
−       type= own start= auto error= normal DisplayName= "NAME for services.msc"
+
−
+
−Then pass what ``srvany.exe`` wrapper to do::
+
−
+
−  cmd> reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\NAME\Parameters" ^
+
−     /v "Application" ^
+
−     /d "\"c:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\java.exe\" -cp c:\home\devel\service Main"
+
−
+
−Above you see quoting syntax for spaces and quotes. Next start service with::
+
−
+
−  cmd> sc start NAME
+
−
+
−If you make error recheck your settings with::
+
−
+
−  cmd> reg query "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\NAME" /s
+
−
+
−Or remove service and make steps again::
+
−
+
−  cmd> sc delete NAME
+
−
+
−Visit GUI ``services.msc`` and check with ``procexp.exe`` that service actually
+
−do job.
