win32serviceutil won't start

[Nikola Skoric]

I have a very simple win32serviceutil script:
import win32serviceutil, time

win32serviceutil.StartService("burek", "localhost")

time.sleep(10)

exit()

It successfuly imports win32serviceutil, and chokes on StartService:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "foobar.py", line 3, in ?
    win32serviceutil.StartService("burek", "localhost")
  File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\win32\lib\win32serviceutil.py", line 
399, in StartService
    hs = SmartOpenService(hscm, serviceName, win32service.SERVICE_ALL_ACCESS)
  File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\win32\lib\win32serviceutil.py", line 
76, in SmartOpenService
    return win32service.OpenService(hscm, name, access)
pywintypes.error: (1060, 'OpenService', 'The specified service does not 
exist as an installed service.')

What does that mean?
