Dear all,

I'm very new to windows service programming and I keep getting the same error while trying to install. I followed the setup on the MSDN walk through of creating a windows service but still got an error. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/aa984464(VS.71).aspx

The error i get during the setup process is:
'An exception has occurred during the install phase.
SystemComponentMode.Win32Exception:the account name is invalid or does not
exist, or the password is invalid for the account specified'

Can anyone help me? is it a permission problem? do I have to add some user name and password information to my program? The service runs as a local service.

thanks for the help!!
