Unable to Start the Qlik Sense Services in Services.msc due to:
Error 1068: The dependency service or group failed to start
Environment
Resolution
- Check the dependency of the services in Services.msc and start the services accordingly.
- Right-Click on the Service which is throwing the error -> Properties -> Check Dependencies Tab
- Use a service account (with local admin rights) to run the services in Services.msc
- 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.
- Try to update/Verify Service Account credentials for that service throwing the error in Services.msc
- Qlik Sense should be installed on Windows Servers not on Windows XP/7/10 etc.
- Last resort - Repair or Reinstall(Try to Repair first)
