WildFly 10.1 Service is not starting

NDB picture NDB · Oct 4, 2016 · Viewed 8.2k times · Source

When starting the WildFly service it fails with the error message:

The data area passed to a system call is too small.

This is how I installed the service:

I have copied C:\wildfly-10.1.0.Final\docs\contrib\scripts\service to C:\wildfly-10.1.0.Final\bin\service.

Similar to how it was working with WildFly 8, I have installed the services with the following command:

service install /jbossuser admin /jbosspass mypassword

When starting the service using service start, the command fails with the following error message:

Using the X86-32bit version of prunsrv

The data area passed to a system call is too small.
Failed to start serviceService Wildfly starting...
ERROR: Failed to load service Wildfly configuration
