I retstarted my Win 2K PC, and IIS has refused to restart.

1. Reinstalled IIS
2. Removed all references to IIS from my firewall
3. Added the IIS snap-in to the console again

Any ideas anyone?

What error does the IIS service give when you try to start it?

"The service failed to start or respond in a reasonable amount of time."

Sorted!

Went to the Windows event viewer, and the event viewer crashed.

Went to services, and the event logging service was stopped...so I restarted it.

Back to IIS to attempt to start it, so that it would hopefully log the problem...and it started!

So it looks like IIS needs the Event Logger to be running before it can run.

you can look at a service's properties (by right clicking) and see it's depencies. I was just using this a little while ago because my SQL Server wasn't posting Alerts that I had specified, and I accidentially found that you could see each service's dependencies on others. pretty handy.

I couldn't work out which service was IIS. There's the admin tool, which is a service in it's own right, but IIS isn't there. Inetinfo appears as a process, it must be that process that sits on Port 80.

I checked Event Logger and it says that no services depend on it. Looks like it's one of those things that Microsoft just expect you to work out.
