I have a program that executes several tasks at a specific time everyday. I have refactored the application to run as a Quartz job using the Quartz windows service. When i start the Quartz Server service in Windows services i get error :
Error 1053 :The service did not respond in a timely fashion
and when i inspect the Quartz logs at C:\Program Files (x86)\Quartz.Net\Trace\application.log i get :

I have followed the guide from this article here Running Quartz jobs sequentially
For now it appears the Quartz Server is still referring to the built-in job that comes with the installation and its also not recognizing any of the edits i have done.
What i have done
1. Built my Class Library project in release mode and copied the resultant dll to C:\Program Files (x86)\Quartz.Net as in the guide here
https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/1017396/Running-jobs-sequentially-using-Quartz-Net-with-th
2. Updated quartz_jobs.xml by adding entries for my program :
<job>
<name>JobOne</name>
<group>JobOneGroup</group>
<description>Sample job for Quartz Server</description>
<job-type>CheckListDemo.JobOne, CheckListDemo</job-type>
<durable>true</durable>
<recover>false</recover>
<job-data-map>
<entry>
<key>NextJobName</key>
<value>JobTwo</value>
</entry>
<trigger>
<simple>
<name>jobOneTrigger</name>
<group>jobOneTriggerGroup</group>
<description>Simple trigger to simply fire sample job</description>
<job-name>JobOne</job-name>
<job-group>JobOneGroup</job-group>
<misfire-instruction>SmartPolicy</misfire-instruction>
<repeat-count>-1</repeat-count>
<repeat-interval>10000</repeat-interval>
3. Added empty constructor for job initialization in all my Job implementation classes
4. Created a plugin and added its reference in quartz.xml as :
# job initialization plugin handles adding a listener for our jobs
quartz.plugin.PluginExample.type = CheckListDemo.PluginExample, CheckListDemo
5. Added a plugin class (PluginExample.cs)
6. I have added the job implementation classes .The classes simply write some text to a named folder :
class JobTwo :IJob
{
public JobTwo()
{
}
public void Execute(IJobExecutionContext context)
{
Console.WriteLine("Job two started");
string realPath = @"C:\Users\user\Documents\FILES";
string appLog = "JobTWO";
var logPath = realPath + Convert.ToString(appLog) + DateTime.Today.ToString("dd -MM-yy") + ". txt";
if (!File.Exists(logPath))
{
File.Create(logPath).Dispose();
}
List<string> keys = new List<string>() { "TYPE", "SIGNATURE", "COMPANY", "CLIENT NAME" };
foreach (string key in keys)
{
using (StreamWriter sw = File.AppendText(logPath))
{
sw.WriteLine(key);
sw.Flush();
sw.Close();
}
}
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(10000);
Console.WriteLine("Job TWO finished");
}
7. Added a job listener with the requisite entries for my jobs and trigger I have verified in a separate console program that the code can indeed write to the locations im am specifying which leaves the Quartz Server itself as the issue.
What am i missing?
Is there any additional configuration required so that the server picks up my dll and the specified jobs.
What I have tried:
I have tried running the Quartz Service normally without my dll and it runs perfectly.
But as soon as i add my dll and the amendements to quartz installation files i get issues.
