Error installing Windows Services on Windows Server 2003 : DOTNET

I try to install Windows Services but it show this error during the
installation process, "Insufficient System resources exist to complete the
requested service."

I created this Services in VB 2005.

I has other Windows Services installed on this machine. I try to install in
other computer with the same specification and its is OK.

Specification
OS: Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition
RAM: 4GB
CPU: Double CPU Xeon 3.60GHz
HD: with 27.8GB of free spaces

Thanks for your help.

My best guess is that you have something running that's taking up System
resources errantly, a memory leak in a program or something like that.

Anti Virus solutions and things like that while running can be causing
problems.

You should shutdown everything that's not needed that's running on the
computer like AV's, Spyware detection things like that to free up System
resources.

Also check the Virtual Page file size it may be too low for the amount of
physical memory that computer has, which could be causing problems.

Are you using the Installutil to install the service or some other method?

You should try the Service Installutil.exe to see if that buys you anything,
look it up on Google on how to use it. You may need to take the other
install stuff out if it's part of the project and simply build the project
to get the Servicename.exe so that you use that exe with Installutil at the
Command Prompt.

Thanks Mr. Arnold for you help.

I try with InstallUtil but it fail. This is the log.

Well, what's in the log?

logfile = E:\CopyFileApp\EVERCH_OutputFiles.InstallLog

This is the log.

Even though that other install is failing are you sure it didn't somehow
list the Service? If it is listed in the Services, then you have to get it
uninstalled.

Or there is something wrong with the assembly itself are you sure you have
not left anything in that assembly dealing with the other install. If
something is there from that other install remove it out of the project.

Have you checked the registry to see if something is in the register?

Have you checked the O/S event logs to see if there are error messages,
because the log you have posted, really doesn't show why it stopped and
rolled back.

For future reference, if the Service is installed by Installutil, then to
install a newer assembly, you must Installutil exe -u to uninstall the old
one.
