Actually I tried to use the User element. I have put CreateUser='no' as the
user already exists in the machine. I have also tested both with and without
the  'UpdateIfExists' field. I am still getting the same erroe message.

Please let me know if you have any idea.

My latest script has the following:


<Component Id='ServiceCom' Guid='MyGUID'> 
       <User Id="myuser" CreateUser='no' LogonAsService='yes'
Domain='MyDomain' 

Name="MyUsername" Password="mypassword" UpdateIfExists='yes'/>
        <File Id='service.exe' Name='service.exe'
LongName="ServiceContoller.exe" 

DiskId='1' 

Source='C:\projects\Service\ServiceContoller.exe' 

Vital='yes' /> 
              
             <ServiceInstall Id='service.exe' Account="MyDomain\MyUsername"
Password="mypassword" Name='TestService1' DisplayName='Test 

service-1' Type='ownProcess' Interactive='yes' Start='auto' Vital='yes' 

ErrorControl='normal'/> 
        <ServiceControl Id="startservice" Name="TestService1"
Start="install" Stop="both" 

Remove="uninstall" 
Wait="yes" /> 
          
                
            </Component>
