Hi,
I've opened cmd in admin mode, downloaded olm.exe, tried to configure it via olm.exe --id xxx --secret xxx --endpoint xxx but this doesn't generate the config.json file under programdata. So I added the file manually, but now when I run olm.exe start, the installer window pops up again, same with olm.exe stop. The logfile isn't logging any activity. I'm not sure what is causing the issue.

The issue seems to be that the windows service is completely ignoring the config.json file or just not able to write/read it. The service runs fine, if it is being started on the command line with command line arguments but it isn't able to start automatically, as it has no way to read in the username, secret, etc

Also make sure you are not running the installer instead of the binary after running the installer! 😄
