PublishingTools service is not starting in Arcgis 10.3

Question

I have installed both web adapter and Arcgis server on same machine and configures security as HTTP and HTTPS . However when I tries to start Publishing services the dialog comes and doesn't finish at all. Please note I have changed only HTTP and HTTPS settings.

Hi Shafi,

Are you able to stop/start any of the other services?  Try to do this from the server manager endpoint rather than from ArcMap/ArcCatalog

If not I recommend running the 'Configure ArcGIS Server Account' program that comes with ArcGIS Server (It can be found from the start menu > All programs > ArcGIS > ArcGIS for Server).

Hi Shafi,

Try publishing a small dataset. Does the publishing dialog still hang?

Few questions:

What is the server URL that you have used to connect to ArcGIS Server from ArcCatalog?

What capabilities are you providing to the services?

What Database are you using?
