Cannot start the Web Management Service (WMsvc)

Hi all,

I'm trying to install the Remote IIS Management tools.

Is used the following script:

dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:IIS-WebServerRole
dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:IIS-WebServerManagementTools
dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:IIS-ManagementService
Reg Add HKLM\Software\Microsoft\WebManagement\Server /V EnableRemoteManagement /T REG_DWORD /D 1
net start wmsvc
sc config wmsvc start= auto

However this fails with the following error

The Web Management Service service is starting.
The Web Management Service service could not be started.

A service specific error occurred: 2147483656.

More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 3547.



In the eventlog I am greeted by the following error:

Failed to find the RegisterModule entrypoint in the module DLL C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\webengine.dll.  The data is the error.

The source is HostableWebCore (? I don't have that installed, why does it need that?)

Then there's a warning:

A listener channel for protocol 'http' in worker process '4132' serving application pool 'WMSvcAppPool' reported a listener channel failure.  The data field contains the error number.

Again, HostableWebCore is the source.

Then there's an error from IIS-IISManager:

IISWMSVC_STARTUP_UNABLE_TO_ACTIVATE_HWC

Failed to activate the Hostable Web Core (HWC). Web Management Service startup failed.  Please reference the Win32 error in this event for further information.

Exception:System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x8007007F): The specified procedure could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007F)
   at System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ThrowExceptionForHRInternal(Int32 errorCode, IntPtr errorInfo)
   at Microsoft.Web.Management.Server.WebServer.Microsoft.Web.Management.Server.Interop.IWebServer.Start()

Process:WMSvc
User=NT AUTHORITY\LOCAL SERVICE

Which is the fact that it can't find the prodecure (linked to first error).

And lastly an error from the Service Control Manager:

The Web Management Service service terminated with service-specific error %%-2147483640.

Trying to start the service by hand yields the following:

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319>net start wmsvc
The Web Management Service service is starting.
The Web Management Service service could not be started.

A service specific error occurred: 2147483656.

More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 3547.

Which doesn't help me further.

  • I tried reinstalling the stuff (except IIS, I don't know if it retains the settings should I uninstall and reinstall it).
  • I rebooted (well, the machine that is, I just had sleep)
  • Searched on the web, but no avail
  • I compared applicationHost.config between the 2 servers (one fails, one doesn't). Bothdon't have the HostableWebcore installed
  • I generated a new self-signed certificate for the server where it fails and tried to use that one in the WMSvc
  • I tried installing Web Deploy after having read that you should have the Feature Delegation tab in IIS, which I don't have. But that one fails also because it cannot start the WMSvc

Anybody who can shed some light on this?

Thanks!
