thanks for pointing out the thread. I watch the forums, but didn't
realize this one was from you.

The cause *may* be the way in which OMERO is registered as a service
when using "bin/omero admin start", but I regularly use the
"Trace.Activator" on Windows to debug, so there are probably several
things going on.

Without seeing your modified configuration files, it's hard to know,
but the major difference between deploying from the command-line and
as a service is that the service is started from a separate Windows
account (unless you took steps to change that). This has bitten me any
number of times.

Hope that helps,
