Octopus deploy hangs when trying to install TopShelf app

Question

I have an service where we use TopShelf. Now I would like to install the service with Octopusdeploy but I can't get it to work. The tentacle seems to hang when I'm trying to start the service. The Deploy.ps1 looks like:

$cmd = "$OctopusPackageDirectoryPath" + "\NameOfExe.exe"

& $cmd "stop"
& $cmd "uninstall"
& $cmd "install"
& $cmd "start"

It works just fine to execut that powershell script in powershell, but the tentacle gets stuck on the last step. I can see in the log that the service is stopped, uninstalled and installed but it hangs on start.

Any recommendations?

I found the answer to my problem. I am trying to set up a service running quartz.net and it seems that it seems like setting quartz that's causing the problem based on some weird security settings.
