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

I have got a Windows Service application from a customer that I try to
start. The customer can start it with no problem, but when I try to
start it I get: "Could not start the GateWay service on Local
Computer. Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or
control request in a timely fashion."

Hi,

Can you post the on_start method code?

Remember that the OS expect the on_start to return in a short amount of
time, most of the time you just create a thread and do any lenghtly
initialization there.
