That's odd.

Ah ok, I think I see what the problem is. On Windows the OS doesn't fork
so we need to omit the PID_FILE option.

Delete this line:

And change this line:
> "%PYTHON%" "%SCRIPT%" -f "%COUNTER_FILE%" -p "%PORT%" -l "%LOG_FILE%"
> -d "%PID_FILE%" %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7
to:
"%PYTHON%" "%SCRIPT%" -f "%COUNTER_FILE%" -p "%PORT%" -l "%LOG_FILE%" %1
%2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7

You should see that I am omitting the -d "%PID_FILE%" option.

Another tip to debug this is to start the script manually from the
command line (click start->run-> type cmd to enter command line shell).
This should show the error message.
