I have a console application that can be run when a user executes it via the Windows Start Menu; however, if that same application is wrapped into a Windows Service and the same user account is used to run it the Service fails to start with the error "5: Access Denied".
Here are some additional details:
- User account has
Log on as a serviceproperty set - No log file is created so the error occurs before the binary can even start
- There are User-mapped drives but I don't believe the application is referencing them. (is there any way to check?)
- Windows Event view does not appear to give any additional details besides echoing the 5:Access Denied
