I have a setup Project which consists of 7 services. I have created it using
Setup and Deployment Project. I have not used installer class. The Problem is
that when I select service for custom installation service gets installed
depending on the selection of user using checkbox. But when I uninstall the
setup using add remove programs It is unable to uninstall the service It
gives ERROR "an exception occured during uninstallation the specified service
does not exists" and rollbacks the uninstallation what is the solution for
it ? I want to achieve custom Installtion of the services

Hi,

It may be possible that it's not being registred as a service ( as you did
not use an Installer class), it does copy the code though.
Did you check if you find it in the service list?


Cheers,

Hi,

I have had this problem when I copy/paste the service & its setup project
and use it as a base for another service. If I forget to generate new IDs I
it gives me this kind of error, IIRC was because two services were installed
in the same directory and as I uninstall the first the second one would lose
the files needed to uninstall

Are you installing all the services in the same dir?


Cheers,
