Windows Service

[Guest]

Hi

I have a Windows Service that I want to run on a server. I created a
service and also created a setup project for it. Then I setup the
configuration manager to release and then built the solution.

I then transferred the .msi to the server and installed it but it isn't
showing up as a service. I don't know what went wrong. Any help would be
appreciatted

Thanks

Try running installutil from the command line... The service was
probably not registered.

You must change working directory to
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322

or C:\WINNT\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322 for 2000 server

or explicity give the full path to installutil.exe when running from
anywhere else (it's not in your path)

HTH,

I tried that and I get this error
'installutil isn't recognized as an internal or external command, operable
program or batch file
