cognos 8 service on local computer has started and then stopped

[dharani]

when trying to start the service from service...it gives out this message...cognos 8 service on local computer has started and then stopped

any solution for that, it would really appreciated.

Start the service via Cognos Configuration.
That will give you a more verbose message as to what's wrong. (click on the detail button during startup)
