Hi,

we use IS 9 and we have created an InstallScript Setup. During the setup we want to install a service. We do it like that:


pUser = &szServiceStartName;
pPW = &szServiceUserPW;

ServiceInitParams ();
SERVICE_IS_PARAMS.dwServiceType = SERVICE_WIN32_OWN_PROCESS;
SERVICE_IS_PARAMS.lpServiceStartName = pUser;
SERVICE_IS_PARAMS.lpPassword = pPW;

nRet = ServiceAddService ( szServiceName, szServiceDisplayName, szServiceDescription, szFileName, bStartService, szStartServiceArgs );

We made sure, the the user information is valid.

The problem is, that sometimes the service is installed, and sometimes not. If not, there is an information in the evenlog with Service Control Manager, Event ID 7038, that the service could not logon with the user information.

When I go into the SCM UI manually and just confirm the logon information, it works. After that, reinstalling the service from the setup works, too.

So I think, there is a difference between
- adding a service with logon information from script and
- changing a service's logon information in the SCM UI.

But how can I solve this? Any ideas?

Thanks,
Rainer
