Can I ask why you are using SERVICEACCOUNTFULLNAME as a parameter, rather than
doing something like this?
<CustomAction Id='SetPermissionableUser' Property='PermissionableUser'
Value='[WINDOWSDOMAIN]\[WINDOWSUSERNAME]' />

Or i realised i can use Account and give it "LocalSystem". This way you can
have one component for both.
In case anyone is wondering, you can do the following:
<Component Id='ServiceExeComponent' Guid='YOUR-GUID'
SharedDllRefCount='no' KeyPath='no' NeverOverwrite='no' Permanent='no'
Transitive='no'
Win64='yes' Location='either' Directory="INSTALLLOCATION">
<File Id="A_Executable" KeyPath="yes" Checksum="yes"
Source="$(var.A_FilesDir)\ALM_GC.exe" />
<util:User Id="UpdateUserLogonAsService" UpdateIfExists="yes"
CreateUser="no" Name="[WINDOWSDOMAIN]\[WINDOWSUSERNAME]"
LogonAsService="yes"/>
<ServiceInstall Id='ServiceInstall' DisplayName='Liquidity Bot'
Description='Liquidity Bot' Name='ALM_Bot'
ErrorControl='normal' Type='ownProcess' Start='auto' Vital='yes'
Account='[SERVICEACCOUNTFULLNAME]' Password='[WINDOWSPASSWORD]'
Interactive='no'/>
<ServiceControl Id='A_ServiceControl' Name='ALM'
Start='install' Stop='both' Remove='uninstall' Wait='yes'/>
</Component>
I have 4 properties:
WINDOWSDOMAIN
WINDOWSPASSWORD
WINDOWSUSERNAME
SERVICEACCOUNTFULLNAME
SERVICEACCOUNTFULLNAME
is the combination of :[WINDOWSDOMAIN]\[WINDOWSUSERNAME] if we have a user
account. If we have a builtin account, SERVICEACCOUNTFULLNAME
is: "LocalSystem" (for example)
In case of a builtin account, the Password attribute is disregarded
