What am I doing wrong bike won't start

2003 FI Nomad

The bike has been parked for the past month. I was going to go out for a ride this morning & I could not start the bike. The starter spun the engine over, after about 3-4 minutes the battery gave out. I connected a battery charger & tried to start, but still the same. I even tried spraying starting fluid into the air filter. NOTHING

Here's what I tried.
1 Trans was in netural & clutch pulled in
2 The fuel pump would run about 15 seconds then shut off
3 The kick stand was up
4 I checked the "IGN" fuse & this was good

What am I doing wrong? -Rich
