I am trying to run iisreset
on a windows-xp. It's not a domain machine, just a local workgroup we use for testing.
The error I get is : IIS Admin Service is Disabled
- Just like "IIS Admin Service is Disabled" Error When IIS Admin Is Running with the difference that that Q is for a domain connected computer. – And it's answer is related on Resyncing the domain account.
What I tried:
- uninstall and reinstall IIS, reboot.
- change the log-on user for the IIS Admin service – to local administrator rather than system
- To note that the service is off course Enabled, and set to Automatic. If I stop it, and start: iisreset – it immediatly starts, but than I get the error message anyway.
-
I had an issue with the machine clock – fixed.

The following A suggests a Group Policy – Are there group policy on NON-Domain computers? IIS Admin Service is disabled
EDIT:
I tried the suggested: How do I restore the IUSR account used by IIS 6
- It did not help.
EDIT:
When I try to restart/stop/start the IIS Admin
from services.msc – it works fine. The problem is from CMD
trying to run: iisreset
EDIT:
Logging using the Administrator account on the machine, gets the same behavior:
IISRESET command, successfully stopping, but fails on starting, with the error:
IIS Admin Service is Disabled.
EDIT:
System event error:
I need that : http://localhost
will work on the PC.
Where else should I check?

The event id 7023 and error message
The World Wide Web Publishing Service service terminated with the following error: The parameter is incorrect
(shown in your screenshot) lead to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/327649 which suggests the port range needs to be increased, and gives details of how to do it by either deleting the registry keyHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Rpc
or changing values underneath it. But before you change anything, remember the usual reason for specifying these values is so you know which ports to allow through firewalls, so remember to make the corresponding network changes.
