Hi!
I would like to know how to start a Windows service from the Visual Studio 2005 Beta Setup/Install project.
So far, I have been able to successfully generate the .msi and setup.exe files. My software installs properly on the target machine ... all the files are installed where they need to be and all registry values are created properly. But during installation, I need to start my own Windows service and this is where I have gotten stuck.
I have been using Installshield for a long time to create my install/setup files. But I am trying to move away from installshield and use VS2005 to get the job done.
Hopefully someone in this forum will be able to help me.
Thanks in advance!
