SABnzb as a service on new Windows Home Server Vail

I just updated my old WHS 2003 to the new vail 2011. I installed SABnzb and works like a dream. Then I tried to install it as a service following the wiki (http://wiki.sabnzbd.org/sabnzbd-as-a-windows-service) but I get an error back.

This is my first command, entered in the console:
SABnzbd-service.exe -f "C:\Program Files (x86)\SABnzbd" install

The message I get back is that "SABnzbd-service.exe is not recognized as an internal command, operable program or batch file."

Any ideas on what I should do?

Try entering

Code: Select all

cd C:\Program Files (x86)\SABnzbd
before this command.

That did the trick, the service is now installed and show up in the services box.
But this is where my second problems starts. When I press start I get this error:

Windows could not start the SABnzbd Binary Newsreader service on Local Computer.
Error 1075: The dependency service does not exist or had been marked for deletion.

The service has 2 dependencies: TCP/IP Protocol Driver and Windows Event Log.
The log is also listed in the services list, but the TCP/IP protocol isn't. Can you install this service manually? Or am I doing something wrong?

You need to install the Helper service too.
