WebSphere v8.0 server profile created as a Windows service could not be started or published to in RAD and how to remove the service?

Troubleshooting


Problem

An IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) v8.0.0.x server profile created to be run as a Microsoft Windows service could not be started on Windows 7 32-bit in IBM Rational Application Developer (RAD) v8.x. Both are installed in C:\Program Files using an administrator group ID. Security was not enabled on the server.

Symptom

Could not start the WAS v8 server profile or publish an EAR/application to it in Rational Application Developer.

In another related user scenario, when running trying to run an application in a WAS server (and start the server) using Run on Server the following error occurred:



... failed while trying to start windows service associated with server. Problem is executing was service. exc: starting service:machine name node 01 service failed to start. Return code =-1.
