Error 1069: The service did not start due to a logon failure

Question

I began testing ArcGIS 10.1 for Server last week, and everything seemed to be running fine. Then, when I came in this morning, nothing works. My services won't load on my web app. When I try to get to Manager or my Services Directory I get the following message: "The remote device or resource won't accept the connection." When I try to start the ArcGIS Server service I get the following message: "Error 1069: The service did not start due to a logon failure."

Does anybody know what's going on here?

Thanks,

Justin

Mine is also a VM, Server 2008 R2, ArcGIS 10.3

It won't stop immediately after it's started though. It will be working fine. The problem is only at each startup -- the password will have to be changed...!!

I have the same problem.....

Azure VM, Windows Server 2012.  ArcGIS Server Service will start and stop immediately..... AGS 10.3.1 is currently unuseable on my VMs.

Mine turned out to be the same problem as above. But I don't understand how this could have happened, and it happens frequently. Something is always changing the password saved to the service, and I have to manually change it back to the right one. How could this have happened??!

Dag Stenkvist​ Dag, did this happen to you too? Thanks.
