cannot install tomcat as a service through NSIS

Hello
I have the following line



ExecWait '"$InstallDirState\ModelServer\apache-tomcat-8.0.9\bin\service" "install" "Tomcat8"'

but this line does not install the service. Any idea what the problem is and how I can fix it?

cheers,
Ehsan

What is the exit code?

You should try Process Monitor and check if the application is started etc...

it's 255, where can I get the list of errors?

So you used

ExecWait '"$InstallDirState\ModelServer\apache-tomcat-8.0.9\bin\service" "install" "Tomcat8"' $0

and $0 was 255?

By asking the apache-tomcat people?
