Thanks Peter for the response!
I got it working by doing this.
<Component Id="ProductComponent" Guid="f5d54gf1-5792-4a35-a77a-c38bdd2bf0ab">
<util:User Id="serviceUser" CreateUser="no" FailIfExists="no"
Name="[USER_NAME]" Password="[PASSWORD]" LogonAsService="yes"> </util:User>
<File Id="F_XXX_YYY" Name="XXX_YYY.exe"
Source="$(var.DropTarget)\" Vital="yes" KeyPath="yes" DiskId="1" />
<ServiceInstall Id="ServiceInstaller" Type="ownProcess"
Vital="yes" Name="XXX.YYY" DisplayName=" XXX_YYY " Description=" XXX_YYY "
Start="auto" Account="[USER_NAME]" Password="[PASSWORD]" ErrorControl="ignore"
Interactive="no" Arguments="[INSTALLDIR] [LABNAME] [LABOWNER] [LABDESCRIPTION]
[LABACCESS]">
<util:ServiceConfig FirstFailureActionType="restart"
SecondFailureActionType="restart" ThirdFailureActionType="restart"/>
</ServiceInstall>
<ServiceControl Id="StartService" Start="install" Stop="both"
Remove="uninstall" Name=" XXX_YYY " Wait="yes" />
</Component>
Thanks,
Senthil.

You can add the "log on as a service" privilege to a user without creating the
user when using the User element. In what way does this not work in your
situation ?

Subject: [WiX-users] Log on as a service question
Hi,
I collect username and password of the user who I want to run the service as.
Highlighted yellow portion below.
<Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir"> <Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder">
<Directory Id="INSTALLDIR" Name="XXX.YYY">
<Component Id="ProductComponent"
Guid="f5d665d1-5792-4a35-a77a-c38bdd2bf0ab">
<File Id="F_XXX_YYY " Name=" XXX.YYY.exe"
Source="$(var.DropTarget)\" Vital="yes" KeyPath="yes" DiskId="1" />
<ServiceInstall Id="ServiceInstaller" Type="ownProcess" Vital="yes"
Name="XXX.YYY" DisplayName="XXX.YYY" Description="desc for XXX.YYY"
Start="auto" Account="[USER_NAME]" Password="[PASSWORD]"
ErrorControl="ignore" Interactive="no" Arguments="[INSTALLDIR] [LABNAME]
[LABOWNER] [LABDESCRIPTION] [LABACCESS]">
<util:ServiceConfig FirstFailureActionType="restart"
SecondFailureActionType="restart" ThirdFailureActionType="restart"/>
</ServiceInstall>
<ServiceControl Id="StartService" Start="install" Stop="both"
Remove="uninstall" Name="XXX.YYY" Wait="yes" />
</Component>
</Directory>
</Directory>
</Directory>
If this user is not part of 'Log on as a service', how do I add the user to
that list through WIX?
I found couple of different ways to make it work, but did not seem to address
my exact situation.
One way is User Element
(http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix2/wix_xsd_user.htm) with LogonAsService
property Other way is PermissionEx Element
(http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/util_xsd_permissionex.htm) with User
property set to User="[USER_NAME]" that I collect part of installer.
Thanks,
Senthil.
