Windows could not start the World Wide Web Publishing Service(W3SCV) in windows server 2016

Question

I have this server but the w3svc service does not start, this affects my IIS, how could I solve it, we have already reinstalled the IIS

Answer 1

-2147023828 = 0x8007042c = The dependency service or group failed to start.

Run this Powershell script from an elevated prompt. It will attempt to start all dependent services. You will then need to investigate which service is preventing the others from starting.

function Checkit($s) {
    "Checking $s"
    $srv = Get-Service $s
    foreach ($ssrv in $srv.ServicesDependedOn) {
        CheckIt $ssrv.Name
    }
    if ($srv.Status -eq "Running") {
        "   $s is running" 
    } else {
       "   $s is NOT running!!!!!!" 
       "   Attempting start..."
       $srv.Start()
    }
}
cls
CheckIt 'w3svc' 

On my Win11 laptop it shows this....

Checking w3svc
Checking WAS
Checking RPCSS
Checking DcomLaunch
   DcomLaunch is running
Checking RpcEptMapper
   RpcEptMapper is running
   RPCSS is running
   WAS is running
Checking HTTP
   HTTP is running
   w3svc is running
