coldfusion 11 application server service not starting - error 1053
Cannot get Coldfusion 11 Application server service to start. Running Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard Coldfusion 11 update 12.
Error: Windows could not start the Coldfusion 11 Application Server service on Local Computer. Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in timely fashion.
Searched for other remedies to no avail. As a "band-aid" I was able to run the cfstart.bat file in a CMD window to have the service start and run. (if the CMD window ever closes, this will stop the service - hence the band-aid)
Here are some of the things we tried - they DO NOT Work:
- Increased the Windows service time-out - https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/922918/a-service-does-not-start-and-events-7000-and-7011-are-logged-in-window
- Ran the service as an Administrator - both local and network (under Properties and select Log On)
- Tried blocking coldfusion from accessing the IP 192.150.19.110 (coldfusion.adobe.com)
- We are not running a proxy
