Tech Tip: Accessing 4D server window when ran as a service on Windows explaines the steps that must be taken to be able to interact with 4D Server when it is running as a service on Windows.
There has been a change in defaults on Window Server 2012 that adds a few steps to what has to be done to be able to interact with 4D Server when it is running as a service.
The following post on social.technet.microsoft.com explains the first steps that must be taken on Windows Server 2012 before the stepe in the Tech Tip referenced above will work.
Windows Server 2012 no longer allows interactive services, by default, which makes the Interactive Services Detection service unnecessary.
If you must run a legacy application that installs an interactive service on Windows Server 2012, you may sacrifice server stability for compatibility by changing the following registry value from the default of "1" to "0".
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Windows
NoInteractiveServices
After doing so and rebooting, the Interactive Services Detection Service will start.
