Configuration [SERVICE NAME].MapServer can not be started. Server Object instance creation failed on machine [SERVER NAME].
http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/14378-Error-Server-Object-instance-creation-failed
I am running ArcGIS Server 10.0
All of my services were running ok yesterday and I was able to add newservices. However, today I am not able to restart existing services oradd any new services. I receive this message:
Unable to Restart service. Error (Configuration [SERVICENAME].MapServer can not be started. Server Object instance creationfailed on machine [SERVER NAME]. ).
Where SERVICE NAME = the name of the service I am attempting to restart/add and SERVER NAME = the name of my server.
I am able to access my existing services that are running.
I have not made any changes to my computer, permissions, etc. since yesterday. I tried restarting the server, and still no luck.
How can I resolve this?
The logs should give us some more information as to the cause of theissue. Take a look at this link, increase the log level to Verbose, andthen try to re-start your services. If the issue is not clear, post thelog, perhaps we can figure it out.

Thanks for the direction. The "Feature Access" capability was enabled, which requires the data to be in an SDE geodatabase.
