Hi All,
I have created a windows service in C# using MS Visual Studio .Net
2003. I can install the service using the installutil command, but I
am unable to to create a setup package which will install the service.
The aggervating thing is I created a service about six months ago and
the install package worked fine. That is, after I ran the setup, the
service appeared in the services panel.
As far as I can tell I have set both projects up the same. Both have
service class and a project installer class. The settings for each are
the same. Does anyone have any suggestions one what I am missing.
This is driving me CRAZY!
Thanks,
Bill

don't use the .net service installer classes when distributing an .msi...
Use the MSI service install/control tables instead.

Thanks for the suggestion Eric. Do you have a good link about it, or
do I just need to google it?
