The first error message is a generic Windows error message that says
that the service never really got off the ground, so to speak. It
started, but stopped pretty much immediately.
The second error message indicates that the bacula director tried to
start up, and then tell the Windows service controller about the
progress, but there was something wrong with the Windows service
manager. It is possible that this was simply a timing issue, and that
when you start bacula-dir again, it will work this time.
The first thing I would do is go to the Services manager (Start | Run,
then type "services.msc" and click on Run). Sort by startup type and see
if all the services set to Automatic have started properly. If they
haven't - try starting them again.
If that doesn't help, reboot. Sometimes that cleans up issues like this.
If that still doesn't help, reinstall bacula-dir.
