Problems with installing windows service using setup project

Hey

I created a windows service and added it to a setup project. The setup project should install the service and run it but for some reasons it doesn't install the service and gives following error: "Service cannot be started. The service process could not connect to the service controller"

I get this error after it runs the service in the background after a while but service is never installed. I have checked it so many times. It is totally strange and new to me. Could someone please help me with this problem? Thanking in advance!
