I'm not really sure how to install it - Maybe I can't use ServiceInstall as the
"Arguments" based on the doc is supposed to be used to start a service and not
install a service as I'm trying to do.
Next, I tried using "service.bat install Tomcat7" to install Tomcat. It works
fine in a command line but when I use the following CustomAction nothing
happens. Am I using it correctly?
<Property Id="QtExecCmdLine" Value=""C:\tomcat\bin\service.bat install
Tomcat7""/>
<CustomAction Id="TomcatInstall" BinaryKey="WixCA" DllEntry="CAQuietExec"
Execute="immediate" Return="check" />
<CustomAction Id="TomcatInstall"
ExeCommand=""C:\tomcat\bin\service.bat install Tomcat7""
Directory="TOMCAT_BIN_DIR" Execute="immediate" Return="asyncNoWait"/>
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom Action="TomcatInstall" After="InstallFiles"></Custom>
</InstallExecuteSequence>
Thank you

Do you know how you are supposed to install Tomcat as a service? If that
-install option is what actually installs Tomcat as an NT service, then you
shouldn't be using ServiceInstall because that installs it as a service too.
