About this tag
Discussions tagged with web services on WindowsForum.com cover IIS performance counters, WSUS post-install errors, and public IP retrieval. Users report that the Web Service and Web Service Cache counter sets disappear on Windows Server 2022 until IIS is reinstalled, and that Event Viewer IDs 2002, 1017, and 3007 relate to Web Service counter registration failures. WSUS installation on Windows Server 2025 fails with a path-not-found error during IIS configuration. Other threads ask how to find a router's public IP address via web services or command line, and why email services frequently request sign-in credentials. These posts focus on troubleshooting web service components in Windows Server and client environments.
