Same thing, no messages.

But I've found that the call to log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator.ConfigureAndWatch stops the programs.
I've changed my Main method to:

            try
            {
                error("Main1", "Begin");

                 log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator.Configure(new FileInfo(System.IO.Path.GetFullPath("log4net.config")));
                error("Main1", "Begin2");
                ServiceBase.Run(new ServiceBase[] { new MyHal.Service.Service1() });
                error("Main1", "End");
            }
            catch(Exception exc)
            {
                error("Main exception", exc.ToString());
            }

Here I see in syslog the firt message ("Begin"). If I put in comment the log4net call I see "Begin2" method ; but then I think that the "MyHal.Engine.Core.Instance.Init();"  in the OnStart method does nothing... (the Core class has a static ctor with an error message that is never displayed)
It's rather hard to debug what mono-service does.... or doesn't...

Hi JC,

Try using /usr/bin/mono/usr/lib/mono/1.0/mono-service.exe
MyHal.Service.exe on a command line and see if there are any messages.

mono-service is only a tool to run your service. You have to provide a
startup script for your specific distribution to run the service.

HTH,
