Just Installed Appian for the first time on a Windows machine running SQL Serverr but having trouble starting Appian

Greetings to the Community.

I just installed Appian 18.2 on Windows Server 2018 running SQL Server for a non production environment.  This is my first time.  I then try to start Appian by running C:\appian\services\bin>start.bat -p [password] -s all

What I get is the message below.  Does anyone know what I am getting wrong?

Thanks.
