When installing a mid SericeNow server we get 'Invalid service Account' error, but have verified we have a correct service accout/passord, but get an error during providing the service account. We get through the error that requires the account to be 'Run as a Service '.

Service account on mid server need to run as local system account. The local admin account is created in AD as a service account, and through group policy is given the following rights.
