Subject: [WiX-users] service failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient priviledge to start system services. Hi, I run this msi locally in an admin command line window, but the msi cannot start the service it just installed. The error is "service failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient priviledge to start system services.". Below is my code and you can see I am using LocalSystem account. I can see that the service is installed under LocalSystem account but msi failed to start it. I can manually install and start this service without any problem. Did I miss anything in my code? Appreciate your hint.

I rigged one of my MSIs to fail immediately after IntallInitialize (a deferred CA that with impersonate="Yes" is rigged to return an error). I've discovered that the product is unregistered even though no files/folders/reg are removed. Does anyone know why?
