Oddness running from a daemon.

[Rod Widdowson]

I'm looking for guidance on debugging this one.

I'm seeing an issue when I run Jetty from a Daemon in Windows.  The symptom
is that during the authentication flow all goes OK until we despatch to
auth\Password:

2014-10-07 09:24:14,218 - DEBUG

This works just fine from the command line, so it is something odd about the
fact that I'm running from a service.  I watched the process doing a lookup
in "authn\conditions\*" and now I'm currently floored so any suggestions
about what precisely is up with that transition would be welcome.  

An aside: while I was debugging this I did spot an oddity.  The daemon
wanted to load a file called:

C:\Program Files
(x86)\Shibboleth\Jetty\resources\%{idp\storage\ClientStorageService:org\open
saml\storage\impl\ServletRequestScopedStorageService}.class

I'm sure that has nothing to do with problem in hand, but I'll bring it to
your attention in case it rings any bells.
