I'm trying to install AD Certificate Services on my Server 2012 machine which is also a domain controller.
The service installation completes successfully but I am not able to get the certsrv service to start. In Services.msc, the service shows as "Disabled". When I set it to automatic and start it, I get an error message like so:
Windows could not start the Active Directory Certificate Services service on Local Computer.
Error 2: The system cannot find the file specified.
The event viewer has a log under "System" for this event as well, and it says this:
The Active Directory Certificate Services service terminated with the following error: The system cannot find the file specified.
Any ideas on how I can get to the bottom of this?
