I got this error while trying to run redis-server.exe as a service in Windows Server 2012:

C:\Program Files\Redis>redis-server.exe --service-install redis.windows.conf --p
rotected-mode no
[2916] 26 Jan 18:18:56.979 # HandleServiceCommands: system error caught. error c
ode=1073, message = CreateService failed: unknown error

Any ideia on how to solve this ?

Hi - it seems that you are using the Windows fork of Redis. That fork isn't a part of the official Redis project and thus issues with it do not belong here. You can seek further assistance at https://github.com/MSOpenTech/Redis
