I'm using Advanced installer to install a windows service. However I always get the error "Service failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services."
I'm running on Windows XP.
I'm running as an Administrator.
I want to use the LocalSystem account so the username and password text boxes in the advanced installer ui are left blank.
I can install and run the service manually, myself, without any problem (using installutil).
If, after I receive the above error message I go into the Windows Services Control Panel I can start the service myself with no problem, so the installer is installing the service successfully and the services works. If, after starting the service myself, I go back into my installer program and click 'retry' it still can't start the service even though its already started. So it seems like the installer is really confused.
Can anyone help me with this?
