hi
i created a setup project for a windowsservice which contains a projectinstaller class. to that class i added an eventloginstaller to setup my custom eventlog (this is all following the msdn instructions). the problem i'm encountering is that the serviceinstaller sets up a (standard) eventlog source itself - so when my eventloginstaller runs, it gives back the error "event source already exists". is there a way to suppress the setup of the (standard) event source by the project/service installer?
thx in advance
