Hi all,
I'm getting an error 1923 when trying to install a service.  It works 
fine if a use the "NT AUTHORITY/NETWORK SERVICE" username, but I'm 
trying to use a specially created account.  I know the account can run 
services because the database service already uses it.

Here is the code for creating the user and installing the account:

<util:User Id="ServiceAccount.User"
                    CanNotChangePassword="yes"
                    CreateUser="yes"
                    FailIfExists="no"
                    PasswordNeverExpires="yes"
                    PasswordExpired="no"
                    RemoveOnUninstall="yes"
                    UpdateIfExists="no"
                    Disabled="no"
                    Name="monikasvc"
                    Password="monika"
                    LogonAsService="yes">
<util:GroupRef Id="UsersGroup"/>
</util:User>

And for the service:

<File Source="../Release/appserver.exe" DiskId="1" KeyPath="yes">
<Permission GenericAll="yes" User="Everyone" />
</File>

<ServiceControl Id="Monika.AppServer.ServiceControl"
                             Name="MonikaApplicationService"
                             Start="install"
                             Stop="both"
                             Remove="uninstall"
                             Wait="yes" />

<ServiceInstall Id="Monika.AppServer.ServiceInstall"
                             Name="MonikaApplicationService"
                             DisplayName="Monika Application Service"
                             Account="monikasvc"
                             Password="myaccountpassword"
                             Type="ownProcess"
                             Interactive="no"
                             Start="auto"
                             ErrorControl="normal"
                             Description="Monika Application Service" />

I've tried searching for a solution already but they all seem to be dead 
ends, and suggest just using a built in account like "NT 
AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE" (which DOES work)  - but I must use a custom 
account created by the installer.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Mark.
