Hey folks

on XPP here.

I have always had IIs started by default, but suddenly now i see my default
(and only) website is off. i get this message when trying to start it -

"The service did not response to the start or control request in a timely
fashion"

running iisreset via Run > CMD gives me the following:

Attempting stop...
Internet services successfully stopped
Attempting start...
Restart attempt failed.
IIS Admin Service is disabled

So i went to Services, and IIS Admin Service is started. i restarted - and
still the same notice.

not sure if related, but World Wide Web Publishing seems to be stopped,
trying to restart it gives the following error -

could not start remote installation service on local computer, error 127:
the specified procedure could not be found

Trying to uninstall/re-install FTP via Add/Remove Windows Components does
not change anything.



Any ideas what this can be?



Many thanks!

Hi,
Did you change any permission recently on the IIS?.
You receive an "Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or
control request in a timely fashion" error message when a service that uses
the local system account tries to start on a Windows Server 2003-based
computer

I'm on Windows XP, not 2003, would this make a difference?
