Problem in Windows Service

[nagendrathecoder]

Hi all, I am refering this[^] article of CodeProject for learning about Windows Services. Everything went right, but when i tried to Start the service from Services option of Administrative Tools, it is showing me following error: "The source was not found, but some or all event logs could not be searched. Inaccessible logs: Security." on this line of code

if (!System.Diagnostics.EventLog.SourceExists("SimpleSource"))

Service is not starting. Can anybody tell my why this is happening? Thanks, Nagendra.

Maybe it has to do with the user account you installed the service under.
