Administration SharePoint services

Administration service is not running:-

The Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Administration service is required to run on all servers in a Microsoft SharePoint Foundation 2010 farm. This service performs multiple operations on the local server computers that require local administrator permissions for operations; for example, creating and deleting Web applications and service applications, and starting and stopping services. If this service is not running on any server in a SharePoint Foundation 2010 farm, administrative operations can fail or partially succeed.

Cause: One or more of the following might be the cause:

·         The SharePoint Foundation Administration service was stopped by an administrator on a particular computer.

·         The user name or password for the account that the SharePoint Foundation Administration service is set to run as is incorrect.

·         An error condition in the SharePoint Foundation Administration service caused the service to terminate.

Resolution:   Start the administration service

·         Start the SharePoint Foundation Administration service
