I have the exact same problem, but adding the line didn't solve it. The following line leads to the same problem (my service is a VB.NET EXE):
<File Id="AgentExe" Name="Agent.exe" Source="$(var.Admin.ProjectDir)AdminSetup\AgentFiles\Agent.exe" KeyPath="yes" Assembly=".net" /> But the problem disappear when I remove the Assembly attribute: <File Id="AgentExe" Name="Agent.exe" Source="$(var.Admin.ProjectDir)AdminSetup\AgentFiles\Agent.exe" KeyPath="yes" /> JC -----Message d'origine----- De : [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] De la part de Graham Vickrage Envoyé : jeudi 3 janvier 2008 16:52 À : wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Objet : Re: [WiX-users] Problem Starting service on XP In the end it was the the exe.config file not being included with the serice.exe file. I added the following in the service component and it works. <File Id='ServiceConfig' Name='Call Manager Service.exe.config' Source='Call Manager Service.exe.config' ReadOnly='no' Vital='yes' Hidden='no' System='no' Checksum='no' /> Thanks for all your help identifying this. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
