Error when starting IIS:
Attempting start...

Start attempt failed.

IIS Admin Service or a service dependent on IIS Admin is not active. It
most likely failed to start, which may mean that it's disabled.

I was able to solve this issue.

I forgot to put "" around value of AZImpersonationLevel.

After changing AZImpersonationLevel=1 to AZImpersonationLevel="1", it worked.

Thanks,
Kshitiz

What else did you change?

Does IIS start working if you revert to a previous version of the metabase
(there is a history folder that should have the last 10 copies of the
metabase in it)

Cheers
Ken
