Description

Deploying a worker on a Windows device is a valid setup, but I cannot find any documentation on how to run the executable as a Windows Service.

I completed the following to create the service:

sc.exe Create Boundary binPath= '"D:\Boundary\boundary.exe" Server -config="D:\Boundary\pki-worker.hcl"'

The service was created successfully but when I try and start the service I receive an error:

"Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely manner".

Perhaps I am missing a flag? But the documentation is lacking in this area. Support made an article for Linux hosts but didn't include Windows.
