error while running my application as windows xp service

[durga]

i have developed a server application which i want it to run as a windows xp service......i have added my application to service list through command prompt using SC.EXE.
now the problem raised when i was starting the service.
it was throwing an exception as:

could not start the service on local computer
ERROR 1053 : service did not respond to start or control request in a timely fashion.

i am running this service on local system account.

what could be the reason for this error.....how to resolve this error.............can any one help me plz

thanks

[Info]

Error 1053 is built in and shows after 125 seconds, evidently it does not affect the application which continues to run.

Microsoft Knowledge base article 307806 covers it.

well my application (service ) is not waiting till 125 seconds.....it is throwing the error 1053 after 1 or 2 seconds....


i found that my app is running as service if i use some third party tool like 'application2service'...........

i dont want to run it using third party tools.......

is there any method to resolve this error.....i have searched the web but i dint get any proper solution......
