Question

I tried to start Routing and Remote Access Service but I've got an error says the dependency service or group failed to start then I tried to start Remote Access Connection Manager (one of RRAS's dependencies) and the error way same. then I tried to start The Secure Socket Tuning Protocol Service but there was an error says that the the service started then stopped!

the errors form event log is here:

The Remote Access Connection Manager service depends on the Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol Service service which failed to start because of the following error: The operation completed successfully.

The Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol Service service entered the stopped state.

Does anyone know how can I resolve the problem?

Solution 1

The problem was from my VPS provider. They disabled VPN option. We asked them and they Enabled it for us. Now this is our problem!

Solution 2

A couple of things to try without seeing your full event log:

1. Try backing up your registry and then deleting the following key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\currentcontrolset\services\remoteaccess\routermanagers\IPV6 and then rebooting.
2. Try removing the RRAS role completely from the server in Server Manager Roles and rebooting then re-adding the RRAS role. (NOTE: if you have extensive rules/policies/settings within RRAS you will need to document them and recreate them. See here: http://winmasterplan.blogspot.com/2008/01/export-rras-configuration.html

Solution 3

I solved the problem for myself (on Server 2008 R2) when I did the following:

1. Control Panel > Device Manager > View > Show Hidden Devices. Under Network Adapters, make sure all are enabled (I don't know which ones are the necessary ones).

2. Control Panel > Network and Sharing Center > Change Adapter Settings. Right-click each adapter, choose Properties, then IPv4 Properties, then Advanced, then WINS tab, then Enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP. Don't know if this was part of the solution, but it was a change I made before RRAS started working.

You may have to then reboot the server.

Solution 4

It's strange but if you disabled Remote Registry, you have to change it strtup type to manual. service Remote Registry= disable -> manual

Solution 5

I was having the same problem. I had disabled a host of network devices that were needlessly sucking up all the IPs in my DHCP pool. When I went and deleted those connections which we will never use, they stayed in the list, however, when I went bgack and enabled each one they disappeared, and once they were all gone, SSTP service started backup as advertised.

Have you considered adding SOME Information? Like - is there anything in the event log? Normally starting services leave separate event log explanations.

[Thomas]

@TomTom ok I'll add them

[Thomas]

@TomTom I'm nob in windows server. can you tell me where I can find the exents of the services? I opened Event Viewer but I don't know where to go!

[Thomas]

@TomTom I've added the data from Event Log

[Thomas]

I told that The Secure Socket Tuning Protocol Service doesn't start!

[mprill]

Are there any events in the System or Application logs about that service? They can have Source set to Service Control Manager or a specific name for that service. Basically try to start it again and then refresh the Event Log and look for any events that match the exact time of you starting that service.

it's startup is manual and the problem doesn't resolved

[Thomas]

I checked the system events and the log about this was The Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol Service service entered the stopped state.

The problem didn't resolve :(
