I've seen this in the past on Windows Vista with services that depend on the VC
8.0 runtimes and the VC 8.0 runtimes are also being installed in the same MSI.
The event viewer should show messages if that is the case.
If this does happen to be the case in your scenario, there is some info in the
ServiceControl table documentation
(http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa371634.aspx). Essentially you'd
need to create a commit custom action to install your service in order to
ensure that the VC 8.0 runtimes are fully installed.
Thanks! Aaron

Hm. Interesting.
You might also check in the Windows Event Viewer. Once in a while useful info
crops up in there. J

Thanks Matt. Currently I'm using default (Local system Account). Problem is it
works fine (with same setting) when I use '-service' option and install it
manually, but when I use msi (ServiceInstall) it gives me error 1053.

One common mistake I make over and over again is that I install the service
(using the .msi) as a user who does not have access rights to do so (log on as
a service.)

Hi All,
I'm facing one problem using ServiceInstall. I have one ATL windows service
which works fine when I manually register it (Service.exe -service). But
service gives following error, when I install it using installer made using
ServiceInstall element.
Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a
timely fashion.
Component definition in Wix file:

DisplayName="Windows service"

</ServiceInstall>
</Component>
------------------------------------------------
Any idea what could be wrong?
Thanks,
Pankaj
