1. Download the Windows Resource Kit from Microsoft. Install the kit.
2. Optional step: copy the INSTSRV.EXE and SRVANY.EXE files to a folder like (c:\reskit)
3. At the command prompt, run this command:
c:\reskit\INSTSRV.EXE "MyAlfresco" c:\reskit\SRVANY.EXE
This creates the service in the Services manager and the registry keys to setup what program to run.
4. Then open regedit.exe (Start -‐> Run -‐> regedit.exe)
5. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MyAlfresco
6. Create a key called Parameters
7. Create a value inside this key called Application (string type). Assign this value:
c:\alfresco\alf_start.bat (the full path)
8. Create another value called AppDirectory. Set this value to: c:\alfresco (this is the working directory).
9. Open the Services console (Start -‐> Administrative Tools -‐> Services) and look for MyAlfresco.
10. Right click on it and select Properties.
11. On the Log On tab, specify an account that has access to your database server (I use SQL Server).
12. Click Apply and Start the service.
