IIS extension is not working - WAC 1909
IIS is running and working on my Windows Server 2019 LTSC. on WAC 1909, I installed IIS extension, then when I click on it it asks me to install IIS administration on my server
clicked on the install, waited few minutes, restarted my server, restarted WAC, logged back in, then I get this error:
"Unknown error has occurred when trying to initialize Web Server Module: "The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized."
Am i missing something or is this a bug?
thanks
A couple things to check on the server machine:
1. In `%ProgramFiles%\IIS Administration\2.3.0\Microsoft.IIS.Administration\config\appsettings.json`, does the following exist
"users": {
"administrators": [
"IIS Administration API Owners"
],
"owners": [
"IIS Administration API Owners"
]
},2. Does this group `IIS Administration API Owners` exist on your server?
3. Are you in this group (as IIS extension should have added you to the group)
