How to install and start a Windows Service under NetworkService account by using WiX?
I am trying to create a wix installer to install and start a Windows Service under NetworkService account, but failed, what I got is "Service"() could not开发者_如何转开发 be installed. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to install system services."
Please advice, my code is as below:
<Component Id="service" Guid='myguid'>
<File Id='JobServiceEXE' Name='JobService.exe' DiskId='1' Source='mypath\JobService.exe' KeyPath='yes' />
<ServiceControl Id="JobService" Name="[SERVICEID]" Stop="uninstall" Remove="uninstall" Wait="yes" />
<ServiceInstall
Id="JobService" Name="[SERVICEID]" DisplayName="[SERVICENAME]" Type="ownProcess" Start="auto" ErrorControl="normal" Vital ='yes'
Account="NT Authority\NetworkService"
Description="Job Service" />
</Component>
Thank you!
Paul's response is not correct. As per MSDN documentation, to specify the Network Service account, use "NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE":
...the name of the account must be
NT AUTHORITY\NETWORKSERVICE
when you call CreateService or ChangeServiceConfig, regardless of the locale...
Set the property "ALLUSERS" to force an Administrator install.

First, the message you're getting may be due to a security issue. Your installer must be run by an administrator because creating services requires administrative privileges. You might check for that in a Condition
element.
Second, using NT Authority\NetworkService
as the account name will fail on non-English systems, because built-in account names are localized. Instead, use plain old NetworkService
which Wix recognizes specially and resolves into the correct localized name.
I've been having this one on Windows 7 and it was bugging me for ages. I fixed it by adding
InstallScope="perMachine"
To my package element:
<Package Description="..."
Manufacturer="Microsoft Corporation"
InstallerVersion="200"
Languages="1033"
Compressed="yes"
InstallScope="perMachine"/>
