TopShell Service deployed just showing starting

[labjac]

Hallo

Hope somebody can assist, think I'm doing something wrong, followed the guidance on how to deploy a console application as a service to using TopShelf, but sure I'm doing something wrong, when running the console application with the exe it runs fine and without error, but when installing as a service it just shows Starting, but it's actually running and I got no control to Start,Stop,Pause or Reset. The actual program is another class, so the service is only controller a sequencer. (Which in returns call all the other part of the program.

namespace Adidas_Service
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
var exitCode = HostFactory.Run(x =>
{
x.Service<Sequencer>(s =>
{
s.ConstructUsing(sequencer => new Sequencer());
s.WhenStarted(sequencer => sequencer.Start());
s.WhenStopped(sequencer => sequencer.Stop());
});

x.RunAsLocalSystem();
x.SetServiceName("AdidasWCS");
x.SetDisplayName("Adidas WCS Service");
x.SetDescription("This is managing the PTL Wall between PLC and Databases");
});

int exitCodeValue = (int)Convert.ChangeType(exitCode, exitCode.GetTypeCode());
Environment.ExitCode = exitCodeValue;
}
}
