1068 The dependency service or group failed to start - Qlik Sense

[Rakesh_HB]

Unable to Start the Qlik Sense Services in Services.msc due to:

Error 1068: The dependency service or group failed to start 

 

Environment

• Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows  All Versions

Resolution

1. Check the dependency of the services in Services.msc and start the services accordingly.
2. Right-Click on the Service which is throwing the error -> Properties -> Check Dependencies Tab
   
   
   
   
3. Use a service account (with local admin rights) to run the services in Services.msc
4. Check the Service account if it has 'Log on as a service' rights
   
   Launch local group policy editor by running gpedit.msc from Run command(Windows+R), browse to Computer Configuration -> Windows Settings -> Security Settings -> Local Policies -> User Rights Assignment. Find 'Log on as a service' and make sure this account is added. If not, it definitely needs this privilege to run the services that you're trying to start.
   
   
   
5. Try to update/Verify Service Account credentials for that service throwing the error in Services.msc
   
   
   
   
6. Qlik Sense should be installed on Windows Servers not on Windows XP/7/10 etc.
7. Last resort - Repair or Reinstall(Try to Repair first)

Hello @BhaskarSharma 

This issue would be caused by a change to the service account or a change to the domain group policy.

All the best,
