Web Management Service issue (2147483656)

SCCM (System Center Configuration Manager) management points are hosted on IIS. If Web Management Service service doesn’t start, these management points may run into issues.

 

Here is the PowerShell error I saw while trying to run Web Management Service:

 

Solution

 

Open IIS Manager and go to Management Service Delegation. Check “Allow administrators to bypass rules” option. It’s in Edit Feature Settings window

 

 

Then go to “Management Service” and select the self-signed certificate (If there is no self signed certificate, you can create one in “Server Certificates”). Try to enable Management Service again. It should start without issues.

    This worked for me when I had an issue deploying from Visual Studio to my web server.  I was missing the self signed cert that was causing Web Management Service from starting.

    I couldn't get the "Management Service Delegation" appear in IIS 10.0..17763.1 (running on Windows Server 2019), despite Web Platform Installer 5.1 showing that the following are already installed.

    - Web Deploy 3.5 without bundled SQL support

    - Web Deploy 3.6 without bundled SQL support

    The Control panel / Programs and Features shows Web Deploy 4.0 in the list of installed apps!!

    This was all to get the following error resolved, since the error persisted after following https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/iis/install/installing-publishing-technologies/installing-and-configuring-web-deploy-on-iis-80-or-later

     

    2> MSDeploy: Web deployment task failed. On the remote computer, make sure that WebDeploy is installed and that the required process ("Web Management service") is started. The error code is ERROR_DESTINATION_NOT_REACHABLE
    2> MSDeploy: (404) Not Found.
    2> MSDeploy: 1.

    If https://nam06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/  service doesn’t start, these management points may run into issues.  Not worked for me.
