[ASAP] .net service under win2k

[Sam Johnson]

Hi
I developed a VB .net service under winxp and everything
(running, installation, etc.) works fine. Now, I wanted to
install it under win2k (with admin rights), but the
installation fails (german):

An exception occurred during the Install phase.
System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: Der Kontenname ist
unzulässig oder nicht vorhanden, oder das Kennwort ist für
den angegebenen Kontennamen ungültig

(translation: Your service name is not acceptable, not
available or the password for the service is invalid.)

Can anyone help me?

Under which account do you run your service?

If you do not use the "System" one, make sure the following is done in
ProjectInstaller.InitializeComponent:

//
// serviceProcessInstaller1
//
this.serviceProcessInstaller1.Account =
System.ServiceProcess.ServiceAccount.User;
this.serviceProcessInstaller1.Password = "YourPassword"; // or enter it at
installation time........
this.serviceProcessInstaller1.Username = Environment.MachineName +
@"\BV2004Service";
