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?

Bill
