In the end it was the the exe.config file not being included with the
serice.exe file.
I added the following in the service component and it works.
<File Id='ServiceConfig' Name='Call Manager
Service.exe.config'
Source='Call Manager Service.exe.config' ReadOnly='no'
Vital='yes' Hidden='no' System='no' Checksum='no' />
Thanks for all your help identifying this.
