Hi, Can the service be started manually after it got installed?

Hi, all~ I ran into this weird problem as follows: I'm using WiX3.0 to build an installation package which will install several windows services, but I can't start the service correctly, every time I got the message: "Service 'PublishService' failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services." And my wix code is as follows: *<DirectoryRef Id="PUBLISHSERVICE">* * <Component Id="PublishServiceComponent" Guid="5e9f12c0-9c80-4e6b-b271-2a8e21fabf2f">* * <File Id="PublishService.exe" Name="PublishService.exe" Source="PublishService.exe" DiskId="1" KeyPath="yes" />* * ..//and other files needed by the PublishService.exe* * * * <ServiceInstall Id="InstallPublishService" Type="ownProcess" Vital="yes" Name="PublishService" Description="PublishService" Start="auto" Account="NT AUTHORITY\NetworkService" ErrorControl="ignore" Interactive="no">* * </ServiceInstall>* * <ServiceControl Id="PublishServiceControl" Name="PublishService" Start="install" Stop="both" Remove="uninstall" Wait="yes" />* * </Component>* * </DirectoryRef>* By the way, in order to exclude the possibility that the failure is caused by the PublishService.exe itself, I used the Visual Studio 2008 Command Prompt to run the command "InstallUtil /u PublishService.exe", and I succeeded this way. Do you guys have any ideas where I'm going wrong? Thanks in advance~ Best wishes, Bonn ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
