Service Account for Mid Server install

Trying to install a new Mid Server using the Local Service Account using the new MSI installer.  When I get to the screen to select an account, the Local Service Account is not visible.  If I create a new one and try the Validate Service Settings, it always comes back with Invalid account.  I even added to new local account manually and gave it the Logon as a Service security policy.  If I select that new account and put in the password, I still get Invalid Service Account when I click Validate Service Settings.

Thanks, this was the only thing that worked for me.

Do an interactive logon in Windows with the service account once before running the MID server installation
