I'm attempting to get Wildfly 8.1.0.Final to run as a service on Windows Server 2012. I cd'd into %Wildfly_Home%\bin\service and ran service install in cmd.
It output this:
Using the X86-64bit version of prunsrv
Success
A service named Wildfly was added to my Windows Services. But when I attempt to start it, it tells me this:
Windows could not start the Wildfly on Local Computer. For more information, review the System Event Log. If this is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vendor, and refer to service-specific error code 255.
In the Windows Event Viewer, it says this:
The Wildfly service terminated with the following service-specific error:
The extended attributes are inconsistent.
What is this talking about? I'm guessing I might need to do something in the system registry since Google turned up a few results of people saying my registry was corrupted. I don't want to just run some automated tool though – that risks just messing up my registry in other ways. I want someone to actually tell me what's wrong so I can actually fix it. I looked over the Wildfly registry entries and it all looked fine to my relatively inexperienced eyes.

Copy C:\Windows\system32\findstr.exe to Java\jdk\bin OR Java\jre\bin as applicable.
This resolved my problem.
