Issue

Web Application Proxy service (appproxysvc) settings were changed and it is not configured to run automatically.

Impact

After the server restarts, the service will not start and users will not be able to access published applications.

Resolution

Consider changing the Web Application Proxy service startup type to Automatic.

In order for Web Application Proxy to work correctly, the appproxysvc service must be running. It is recommended that this service is set to automatic to ensure that whenever the Web Application Proxy server restarts, the service will restart without any user action.

Membership in the local Administrators group, or equivalent, is the minimum required to complete this procedure.

To set the appproxysvc service startup type to automatic

  1. On the Web Application Proxy server, open the Services console: On the Start screen, click the Apps arrow. On the Apps screen, type services.msc, and then press ENTER. If the User Account Control dialog box appears, confirm that the action it displays is what you want, and then click Yes.

  2. In the details pane, right-click Web Application Proxy Service, and then click Properties.

  3. On the Web Application Proxy Service dialog, on the General tab, in Startup type, click Automatic, and then click OK.
