installing window service using command prompt

I tried to install my simple window service developed by VS 2012 on Windows 7 64 bit.

For its installation, I follow this Blog

But i got this "InstallUtil.InstallLog" file -

Running a transacted installation.

Beginning the Install phase of the installation. See the contents of the log file for the e:\ABC\WindowService_VS2012\wins_Test.exe assembly's progress. The file is located at e:\ABC\WindowService_VS2012\wins_Test.InstallLog.

An exception occurred during the Install phase. System.Security.SecurityException: The source was not found, but some or all event logs could not be searched. Inaccessible logs: Security.

The Rollback phase of the installation is beginning. See the contents of the log file for the e:\ABC\WindowService_VS2012\wins_Test.exe assembly's progress. The file is located at e:\ABC\WindowService_VS2012\wins_Test.InstallLog.

The Rollback phase completed successfully.

The transacted install has completed.

Please advice me what my missing step is.

Enable and check the fusion logs to see what exactly is going wrong. A quick fusion log demo here: http://www.hanselman.com/blog/BackToBasicsUsingFusionLogViewerToDebugObscureLoaderErrors.aspx

Also, ensure that the probing path for your application is properly set in App.config. See here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/823z9h8w.aspx
