I searched the forum and got following related topics but my problem is a bit different, so I decided to post it here and look forward to your comments. Thanks.

The .exe depends on Windows operating system, which is Service_w2k.exe for Win 2K and Service.exe for newer OS versions. However, the service name is the same, say "ServiceName". My codes below works fine (pls ignore the line in italic at this moment). However, there's new requirement to config the service during installation. I can't use <ServiceConfig> under each <ServiceInstall> (just like the code in italic below) because ServiceConfig table requires unique Service Name as ID:,(. <Component Guid1> <File Source="Service_w2k.exe"/> <Condition>VersionNT = 500</Condition> <ServiceInstall Name="ServiceName"> <ServiceConfig/> <!--ERROR!!--> </ServiceInstall> </Component> <Component Guid2> <File Source="Service.exe"/> <Condition>VersionNT > 500</Condition> <ServiceInstall Name="ServiceName"> <ServiceConfig/> <!--ERROR!!--> </ServiceInstall> </Component> -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Conditional-service-install-with-ServiceControl-tp4679896p4679896.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
