问题
I have developed a windows service using C#,visual studio 2008. I have windows xp sp2 installed on my machine. When I try to install the service using installutil tool, after entering the username and password, I get following error.
An exception occurred during the Install phase. System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: The account name is invalid or does not exist, or the password is invalid for the account name specified.
But the user does exist. I had created the user through control panel->user accounts->create new account. The command I used for installing the service is installutil /i TestService.exe
I am unable to resolve the issue.
Thanks in Advance

回答1:
If the account is a local user account, try to use .\username when installutil prompts for the username and password.
The .\ stands for local machine.
Services require a fully qualified username (with domain), so when installing you need to be explicit about local user accounts.
回答2:
The account may also need to be given the "Log on as a service" account right; pass the SE_SERVICE_LOGON_NAME constant to the LsaAddAccountRights() API.

I solved this by changing ServiceProcessInstaller.Account to LocalSystem. and its works for me.
