Service not starting once installed

Asked by mcordi in C++ Programming Language

Tags: C++

Hello. I am using this code:

The service installs fine and the path to the executable to start is perfect.

The StartService function fails to start it and when I try and start it manually, I get this error:
Service Control Manager: "Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion."
Netbios: "The service is not responding to the control function."

I've seen normal PE's become services, so what am I doing wrong?
