BuildForge service keeps dying

I'm having problems with my bf service, it doesn't last more than a minute.

I'm executing bfengine.exe -d from the install dir and I don't see any error message, but the services list shows it as stopped. If I use the explorer I can see the login form but when I hit the login button I get a 404 error (I get redirected to https://localhost:8443/rbf-services/AuthServlet)

This installation has been running for several months on a windows box (2003 server)

Any ideas how should I fix this?

Thanks!

the redirect is to a page normally hosted by tomcat. bfengine -d only starts the engine component.

clearly you're trying to get the engine foreground output. I would suggest starting the service using the service manager interface, then killing the bfengine process that is running using the task manager. At that point, you should be able to start the engine from the command-line as you are attempting to do above.
