Description
An XML invalid shibboleth2.xml file will not start and will not actually create any log files on Windows Server (IIS 7.5 install). An enhancement would be to have shibd be able to create a log file with the error message. Shibd -check does give the proper error message.
Environment
Windows Server 2008R2

Options on Win32 side of shibd to redirect stdout/stderr, and tested this with invalid config after modifying SCM command line.
Need to modify installer to include stdout/stderr options when it installs the service.
