impossible to run kapacitor in windows service

[nicho2]

Hello,

I try to run kapacitor as a windows service but kapacitor service state stay in START_PENDING.

and windows give me this information:

if i launch kapacitord as a siimple executable , all is good:

& "C:\servers_app\kapacitor.configurations\kapacitor\kapacitor-1.6.5-1\kapacitord.exe" -config "C:\servers_app\kapacitor.configurations\configurations\kapacitor.conf"
