I've installed visual studio 2012 and there is no longer a setup project, so i've created an installshield project but not able to configure it to install my windows service. What should I do? There is a tutorial?
Did you refresh the Windows Services console manually by selecting the Action | Refresh after your service was installed? I would also check if the Installer Class custom actions were executed. Make sure that you have similar entries as below in your installation verbose log:
