Cannot install service

Two questions.
1) I followed Walkthrough of Win Service App. At the end, when I run Setup
it complains about incorrect user and/or password. Where does it look for
userid? I have logged in as Administrator.

2) Why cannot I install the service with ServiceName.exe /install command as
I do for non-dotNet service?

Thanks for your help.

For Q2:
The low-level answer would be that if you look in the code for a non-dot net
Windows service (like Winmain/main) there's code that checks specifically
for command line arguments like /Install and /Uninstall.
There's no such code built in to the project template for in a .NET Windows
service whatsoever from what I can tell. So that indirectly answers the
question.

For Q1:
Don't know, but typically it's still a "permission " issue

Try using the InstallUtil.exe . The .NET Framework uses this utility to
install/uninstall Windows Services for .NET.

Hello. I am able to succesfully build and install my VB.Net Windows Service, using the Command Line InstallUtil #EXE PATH#. However, when I press start in MMC, to start the service, I get this error message: Could not start the #SERVICENAME# Service on Local Computer. The service did not return an error. This could be an internal Windows error or an internal service error. If the problem persists, contact your system administrator.

On my dev machine (XP/Pro with VS.NET 2003) I have been developing a Windows Service and installing it on the local machine by opening the Visual Studio Command Prompt and then executing . Now I want to test this service on a Windows Server 2003 box that doesn't have the Visual Studio Command prompt. How do I go about installing the service on the Windows Server 2003 box? Thanks!

Hi, I have developed a windows service in C# and I am using a Visual Studio 2003 installer to install it. When I am updating the service, I usually stop the service in control panel, close control panel (if I don't close, the service will often not properly uninstall), use software uninstallation to remove the service and install the new version via setup.exe.
