Did you tried setting the account of the running the Windows Installer service a domain user who also has local installation rights (local admin rights will do :))?
This might not be the answer you're looking for but it may give you a clue ;) Albert -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: Christoffel le Roux [mailto:christoffe...@tech.flowcentric.com] Verzonden: 18 January 2013 10:52 Aan: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Onderwerp: Re: [WiX-users] Installing service using domain account Using an elevated command prompt the service installs fine, I did add InstallPrivileges="elevated" and removed <Property Id="MSIUSEREALADMINDETECTION" Value="1" /> but with no luck still :( -----Original Message----- From: Christoffel le Roux [mailto:christoffe...@tech.flowcentric.com] Sent: 17 January 2013 04:03 PM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Installing service using domain account Thank you Mr Rob :) I'm now a step ahead I'm using an embedded UI to implement installing multiple instances of the service. So had to handle the message box in myself in the IEmbeddedUI derived class. Now I'm getting: [SC] OpenSCManager FAILED 5: Access is denied. When installing the service using sc using a non-administrator command prompt window . Now I just need to figure out why my MSI is not getting elevated eusven though I have the <Property Id="MSIUSEREALADMINDETECTION" Value="1" /> property in the WIX. Thanks allot. -----Original Message----- From: Rob Mensching [mailto:r...@robmensching.com] Sent: 16 January 2013 05:04 PM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Installing service using domain account My favorite way to debug this is: 1. Install the MSI with full UI. 2. When the "You do not have privileges" error pops up when installing the service, leave it there. 3. Use sc.exe to dig around/create the service/etc using the files that are installed. 4. Usually I find that a dll is not installed in the correct place or the username password isn't right. Basically, the Windows Installer doesn't provide useful information in the error message so you have to try to install the service yourself in the context of the installed files and see what better error messages come up.
