I have Windows Server 2012 Essentials running and have never gotten it work. I continue to get errors that the wssmss service won't start. I manually try to start it and it doesn't do anything. I see the following error message.
The Windows Server Media Streaming Service service failed to start due to the following error messages:
1. The wssmss service was unable to log on as .\MediaAdmin$ with the currently configured password due to the following error:
The system cannot find the file specified.
To ensure that the service is configured properly, use the Services snap-in in Microsoft Management Console (MMC).
2. The service did not start due to a logon failure.
When I try to re-configure Media Service from the Dashboard, I don't even get an option.. I only see the General and Anywhere Access options. Media isn't included.
I have no other errors with my Server.
Any help would be appreciated.
thx
