Good afternoon.!
I have a requirement to start a service in a Mid-server. I have logged-in to a mid-server hosted on Windows OS, and I went to "Services" from start bar, and I want to start a service. But it keeps failing and gives me the below error:
"Windows could not start the ServiceNow MID Server_--- 01 PROD on Local computer. For more information, review the System Log. If this is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vendor, and refer to service-specific error code 1."
Do you know what this error mean? Please help on how to start this service.

I also went to our ServiceNow Mid-server table for this server and checked that it is currently down, and I found the below error:
