I will set this up on a test machine some time in the next few days and investigate what is causing the error.

I found where my service gets its files:

C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\MinimService\AppData\Roaming\MinimServer\libext

This is the AppData folder for the NT Service\MinimService account. The MinimService account has full control over the C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\MinimService\ folder and all subfolders. This AppData directory does have the 2.2 versions of MinimServer jar files and others. In particular it has minimserver-update-238.jmpkg, which is the version of MinimServer running in the service (2.2 update 238).

This makes me think the update worked on the config page when the service was running, and just produced an error at the end spuriously. Otherwise, I don't know how this directory could have gotten populated. When I ran minimserver in my account, that would have updated my user account (Users\al lee) AppData, not the service account one.
