Hi,
 
I have the following wix code to install a Windows service. The service is not 
started during the install.
 
When the Account is localSystem, the service is installed correctly. However, 
when I change it to networkService, it fails with "Error 1923. Service 'Foo' 
(FooService) could not be installed.  Verify that you have sufficient 
privileges to install system services."
 
The msi is installed with admin privilege. What am I missing? I could not 
understand what is the relationship between the Account attribute and this 
failure behavior. The service is not set to start at all during installation.
 
Thanks for help!
