Install as Windows Service hangs on creating EventLog source

pclark

Attempt to install app (result below) and search (not shown) as Windows services:

From cmd run as Administrator:

c:\fusionauth\fusionauth-app\bin>FusionAuthApp.exe /install

Installing service FusionAuthApp...
Service FusionAuthApp has been successfully installed.
Creating EventLog source FusionAuthApp in log Application...

Then nothing happens. After about 10-15 minutes I gave up, ctrl-c out. The app is able to run.

Just checking in, albeit a bit later than anticipated. Was this resolved for you on the latest version of FusionAuth

I have this same issue with 1.59.1
Windows Server 2016 core (no GUI)

FusionAuth works find from cmd line, but stops when I sign out of windows.
FusionAuth wont install as a service/register event log items (it hangs during event log registration: never completes and no error reported).
