I am trying to get the user who runs the service to go into the 'Distributed COM User'. The service that is being installed does Office automation. So I have added the following to my wxs:
<util:User Id="AppPoolUser" Name="[USER_ACCOUNT]" Password="[USER_PASSWORD]" CreateUser="no" UpdateIfExists="no" LogonAsService="yes" > <util:GroupRef Id="dcom" /> </util:User> </Component> </DirectoryRef> <util:Group Id="dcom" Name="Distributed COM Users" /> When I run it I get the following in the error: CreateUser: Error 0x8007056b: Failed to add user WinNT://THEBIGWORD\LinguineUser to group 'WinNT://Localhost/Distributed COM Users'. CreateUser: Error 0x8007056b: failed to add user: THEBIGWORD\LinguineUser to group Distributed COM Users MSI (c) (3C:08) [09:27:26:809]: Font created. Charset: Req=0, Ret=0, Font: Req=MS Shell Dlg, Ret=MS Shell Dlg Error 26403. Failed to add user to group. (-2147023509 THEBIGWORD\LinguineUser Distributed COM Users ) Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong? I have tried changing UpdateIfExisits to yes, but that didnt seem to work either.
