Hi, I am new to Zabbix, I lately downloaded Zabbix Agent 2 file and tried to configure it as a windows server on Windows server 2008 R2, the installation was successful, but I got this error when starting it up and error when trying to delete the service.

C:\Zabbix>zabbix_agent2.exe -c zabbix_agent2.conf --install
zabbix_agent2 [1356]: 'Zabbix Agent 2' installed successfully

C:\Zabbix>zabbix_agent2.exe -s

Anyway to get this fixed?

I always use the full path when installing or uninstalling the agent. try removing the agent with:

zabbix_agent2.exe --config c:\Zabbix\zabbix_agent2.conf --uninstall

en re-install it with:

zabbix_agent2.exe --config c:\Zabbix\zabbix_agent2.conf --install
