We have one in C# that uses the same settings and that starts with no issues. If i take the VB.NET service and install it on the host machine manually (using SC Create blah blah) it installs and starts with no issues, but from the installer is never starts, and manually starting it won't work either, i have to delete it, create it again and start in manually for it too work. The install log offers nothing more than the standard error: Error 1920. Service 'MDS_S' (MDS_S) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services. The system event log says that it is not a valid Win32 application, has anyone come across this before?
