VMWARE Virtual Center service not starting

Scenario:
       I Configured the VMWARE Virtual Center on a Windows machine and when i try to start my VCenter i found it is not starting, the steps mentioned below.
  • Cannot start the VMware VirtualCenter Server service
  • Manually starting the VMware VirtualCenter Server service by navigating to Computer Management > Services and Applications > Service > VMware VirtualCenter Server fails
  • You see the error:
Windows could not start the VMware VirtualCenter Server on Local Computer. For more information, review the System Event Log. If this is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vendor, and refer to service-specific error code 2.

Solution:
  • In the vpxd.log file of vCenter Server, you the error (C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\VMware\VMware VirtualCenter\Logs):
2013-07-22T11:30:23.156+05:30 [03560 error 'Default'] [VpxdReverseProxy] Failed to create http proxy: Resource is already in use: 0.0.0.0:80

2013-07-22T11:30:23.156+05:30 [03560 error 'Default'] Failed to intialize VMware VirtualCenter. Shutting down...

        • Stop the IIS Admin Service and start the Virtual Vcenter server resolves the issue.
