Particular - ServiceControl is always Stopped

Question

I installed Service Control(V1.20.0) recently to my QA server, I install it using ServiceControl Management Utility , I didn’t change the default values, I didn’t move DB location. I was able to browse to the RavenDB when I am in maintenance mode. The particular endpoints are created, I also have non-expired license.

This is what i found in the db log file

Microsoft.Isam.Esent.Interop.EsentInvalidInstanceException: Invalid instance handle at Microsoft.Isam.Esent.Interop.Api.Check(Int32 err) in C:\Work\ravendb\SharedLibs\Sources\managedesent-61618\EsentInterop\Api.cs:line 2739 at Microsoft.Isam.Esent.Interop.Api.JetBeginSession(JET_INSTANCE instance, JET_SESID& sesid, String username, String password) in C:\Work\ravendb\SharedLibs\Sources\managedesent-61618\EsentInterop\Api.cs:line 823 at Raven.Storage.Esent.StorageActions.DocumentStorageActions..ctor(JET_INSTANCE instance, String database, TableColumnsCache tableColumnsCache, OrderedPartCollection`1 documentCodecs, IUuidGenerator uuidGenerator, IDocumentCacher cacher, EsentTransactionContext transactionContext, TransactionalStorage transactionalStorage) in c:\Builds\RavenDB-Stable-2.5\Raven.Database\Storage\Esent\StorageActions\General.cs:line 76

With the amazing help of Particular team, I was able to solve the issue. In my case the problem was I have created the Particular.ServiceControl queue manually. And it needs to be transnational, this was the error i was getting in event viewer:

Queue must be transactional if you configure your endpoint to be transactional

Deleting the queue, and let Service Control Management tool take care of creating all necessary queues.
