Essbase 11.1.2 studio startup error

Question

Hi All ,
I m new to the EssBase. I have installed Essbase in standalone mode on windows 2003 server and used oracle 11g as DB.
Both installation and configuration were successful.
1) What all services must be running before starting Essbase studio server .
2) Essbase server vs Essbase studio server.
3) When i start Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\products\Essbase\EssbaseStudio\Server\startserver.bat i get following errors and Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\products\Essbase\EssbaseStudio\Server\server.properties file is empty.

Hi John,
I configured the components again. Every thing marked as green.
But there were some errors in the log file.
