Hi, I have created a windows service using the Service Install and Service Control tags as below.
<Component Id="Engine_Engine" Guid="*"> <File Source="Engine.exe" /> <!-- Service Orientated --> <ServiceInstall Id="EngineService" Name="Engine" Type="ownProcess" Start="auto" ErrorControl="normal" DisplayName="Engine" Description="Engine" /> <ServiceControl Id="ControlImportService" Name="Engine" Stop="both" Wait="no" Start="install" Remove="uninstall"/> </Component> The Name and Description all work fine etc however in the Windows Event Log, under Application when the server starts, stops, errors etc it says the Source is 'Service1'. I cannot seem to find any more properties to set on the ServiceInstall which allows me to change this name. Does anyone know if I am missing something or if changing the registry after is the only way? If it must be done through the registry can anyone provide an example to get me on my way?
