"The" service?  You haven't posted any details of what you're trying to
do -- what program you're trying to run as a service, how you installed
it, whether you set the permissions and ownership of files correctly,
created the proper user accounts; nor the contents of the event log or
the /var/log/*.log files; nor your cygcheck output.  We are not mind
readers, and the above error is just a generic "something is wrong."
