Looks like if Wait="no" then the dialog has a Retry, Cancel and Ignore buttons, but with it set to Wait="yes" then you can only Retry and Cancel. No Ignore if it is set to wait. Dialog otherwise looks identical except for two buttons versus three buttons. If I choose Ignore then the MSI does install.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] How to start an existing service Does it still do this if the "wait" value is zero? (or no). It won't start it, but I'm wondering if it will still be catastrophic.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] How to start an existing service Hey Phil - I'm wondering if ServiceControl can work on a Disabled service, though. OP seemed to indicate the service is disabled by default, which I see on my XP box here as being the case, too. I'm writing a sample install that tries to start a Disabled service to see how it reacts.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] How to start an existing service You should be able to do this with a ServiceControl element. I don't know the WiX details, but the ServiceControl table in MSI is not directly connected to installing that service.

How can I start the service in my installation? Is it possible with the ServiceInstall/ServiceControl - tags?
