Workflow Manager 1.0 Installation Issue

Recently, I was working on installing Workflow Manager in one of our customer’s environment and was running into issue where installation process was not going any further than step “(Installing IIS components

[1 out of 5])”.

I tried below steps, but it didn’t help to complete the installation.

1. Ran the “Web Platform Installer 5.0” using “Run as Administrator”

2. Tried Installing workflow manager in offline mode using steps given in below msdn article, but it didn’t help

Later I found below error in application log.

Application log error: A reboot is necessary before the selectable update IIS-ManagementService of package IIS-WebServer-Core-Package can be turned on.

Finally, we were able to install workflow manager successfully by restarting the server.
