[Wrapper-user] Can run wrapped app, or install as service, but can't start ("Access denied")

[John C. <jm...@mu...>]

Windows XP.

I've configured a wrapper.conf file such that I can start my app from
a command window and it runs with no problem.  I run the install
script, and the app appears to have been installed as a service.  It's
configured to start up automatically, and no complaints appear
anywhere, until I try to Start this service.  Then I get the message,

"Could not start the <MyApp> service on Local Computer./ Error 5:
Access is denied."

Essentially the same message appears when I use "net start".  If I
look at the Properties of the service, and copy the command to a
Command window, the expected thing happens if I leave the "-s" in
place, but if I change to a "-t" I again get "Access is denied" but
this comes from the Wrapper logger.  If I change the flag to "-c",
everything appears to work fine.

I don't know how to get either the Wrapper or Windows (which is where
I suspect the problem lies, but I can't be sure) to be any more
expansive as to what resource I'm being denied access to.  Does anyone
have any clues or suggestions?

Thanks.
