Hello,

as mentioned in the subject of my post, I'm having trouble with WaptNginx, which appears paused and I can't start it. I get this message:

"Windows could not start the WAPTNginx service on Local Computer. The service did not return an error. This could be an internal Windows error or an internal service error. Contact your administrator."

I first tried the `net stop` and `net start` commands for all Wapt services. No luck.
I uninstalled and then reinstalled Wapt. Still no luck.

I'm stuck...any ideas?

Thanks :)

Do you have something else running on port 80? I encountered this issue once. It will show as paused, and the log won't tell you anything. Sorry for the English, as I don't know French. (


Google Translate: Avez-vous quelque chose d'autre en cours de l'exécution sur le port 80? J'ai rencontré ce problème à une point de donne. Il montrera en pause et le journal ne vous dire rien. Désolé pour la anglais car je ne connaît pas le français.

Could you have installed WSUS alongside the WAPT server on the same machine? As srazer pointed out, if the port is in use, nginx won't be able to bind and therefore won't be able to start.

You can also try starting the nginx binary directly to see what it says.

Sincerely,

Denis

Hello,

thank you for your replies.

Port 80 is only used by Nginx.
There are no WSUS services on the machine.

I restarted the server, without success. After much effort, I think I have a problem with IIS, which I had previously installed and then uninstalled... resulting in an error.
When I simply restart the server, it doesn't work. When I try to uninstall IIS, the server restarts, giving me an error after the uninstallation. But Nginx starts correctly...

Well, it's a "test" server for WAPT and GLPI; there will come a time when I migrate to a real server solution.

In the meantime, thank you for your replies. :)
