Sorted out the 2140 error - cannot run jadrap as a service if path specified in shortcut points to network drive.
You should always use local drives for your database path rather then network drives or UNC paths to remove the possibility for network errors to take out your database server.
A bit confused with regards to second problem - the setting in registry never changes irrespective of shortcut setting - always set to jade\system\jade.ini; and there are 2 setting in registry with regards to services and both have different parameters. Does the service read from the imagepath setting or the parameters setting?
If I de-register the service, then change the shortcut for the jadrap to use a specific ini file and then re-register the service both the parameters and the imagepath settings change to reflect the new value. Given that the "key path component does not have inverse to prior component" can be over-ridden with an ini file setting (not recommended) then I still suspect that the problem is with the ini file being found/used by your database server when running as a service.
