Memcached on Windows Failed to ignore SIGHUP: daemon () failed to dismount

Question

I am trying to install memcached from: http://blog.elijaa.org/index.php?post/2010/10/15/Memcached-for-Windows&similar

When I try to start it using the -d command line -d , I get the following error:

 Failed to ignore SIGHUP: No error failed to daemon() in order to daemonize 

When I run it without -d , it works fine, but I need -d to install it as a service ...

I have tried the following tutorials, but they do not explain how to solve this.

• How to install and use memcached on Windows for PHP?

I tried both 32 and 64 bit versions, but this did not help. I also tried the version: http://code.jellycan.com/files/memcached-1.2.6-win32-bin.zip

Which does not give this error, but still does not create the service.

Does anyone know how to make this work?
