Dear Mr. DeSoi
Thank you for responding.
I originally installed it as a service. However, I wasn't able to make
the connection to the server. (I am assuming the red X next to the
server name means that it is off.)
Thinking there might be a bug, I uninstalled and installed a slightly
different version.
With the second install, trying to set up a service, I got error
messages that the server already existed. I again uninstalled and
manually cleared all of the residual components I could find. It
didn't help. The install still gives me errors when I attempt to make
the program a service.
Hence, the application option.
Ok, if you want to start manually, the relevant information is in the
first three sections of this chapter:

If it still does not work for you, show the exact commands you are
typing and the error output. Also be sure to check the server log file
for hints on why the server is not starting.
