Re: [WiX-users] service not showing after ServiceInstall
Installutil /i works just fine. The service gets registered and shows up in the Services Snap-in. fiordean dacian wrote: Can you manually register it? I mean something like YOUR_SERVICE.exe /REGSERVER or similar? Does it show then? For checking if at the end of the installation it was 'registered within the system', you might check you registry under HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services even though I'm not sure if this 'guarantees' the system is correctly registered.

Re: [WiX-users] service not showing after ServiceInstall
The File that is the Service entrypoint must be the KeyPath for the Component. It doesn't appear that your Component below has any files in it so you're trying to make a Directory the Service entrypoint. I'm surprised the Windows Installer doesn't blow up faster... -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of davemave Sent: Friday, July 27, 2007 12:25 AM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [WiX-users] service not showing after ServiceInstall Great tip, I think I found it: MSI (s) (18:50) [11:49:52:515]: Feature: ProductFeature; Installed: Absent; Request: Local; Action: Local MSI (s) (18:50) [11:49:52:515]: Component: ProductComponent; Installed: Absent; Request: Local; Action: Local MSI (s) (18:50) [11:49:52:515]: Component: AtAdapterService.Basisverzekering.dll; Installed: Absent; Request: Local; Action: Local MSI (s) (18:50) [11:49:52:515]: Component: AtAdapterService.dll; Installed: Absent; Request: Local; Action: Local Everyting is Installed: Absent;.

Re: [WiX-users] service not showing after ServiceInstall
Can you manually register it? I mean something like YOUR_SERVICE.exe /REGSERVER or similar? Does it show then? For checking if at the end of the installation it was 'registered within the system', you might check you registry under HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services even though I'm not sure if this 'guarantees' the system is correctly registered.
