Error Installing Nexus Service on Windows

post by gary.herber on Aug 7, 2025

Running ‘install-nexus-service.bat’ to install and the install script presents this error 'Do you want to proceed with these values? [Y/n]: y

[2025-08-07 14:44:07] [warn] [ 9392] Failed to grant service user ‘NT AUTHORITY\LocalService’ write permissions to log path ‘C:\WINDOWS\system32\LogFiles\Apache’ due to error ‘19: The media is write protected.’

While the Windows service is created it doesn’t run. Any guidance would be welcomed. Thanks.

Problem was caused by security systems intervention in the Service installation process.
