Today it was time to update my SharePoint 2013 installation from March CU 2013 to August 2013 CU.
"Internet Information Service not installed"
After the patching I have to start the Config Wizard. I was a little surprised as it responds with a nice error – I even tried the PowerShell command in case there is a difference, but no:
What? IIS not installed anymore? Something must be broken with the Patch.
But then I tried to reproduce my steps – of course it must be a user error. After reading the patch script (reading things sometimes helps), I noticed that the script disables the IIS Admin service… it didn't happen on other 12 machines I installed this CU only this one :)
SharePoint does not like that – set it back to Automatic start and start the service.
And then start the config wizard again... Happy Patching!!!
