Unable to Install, Upgrade, or Restart Tableau Server Windows Error Code [-1073741515]

Julkaisupäivä: Feb 9, 2026
Kuvaus
After a reboot of Tableau Server, or while installing/upgrading, Tableau Server is unable to start, and tsm status -v shows all services either unavailable or in an error state.

Cause

The error code [-1073741515] is a Windows system error code (equivalent to 0xC0000135, often STATUS_DLL_NOT_FOUND), not a Tableau Server specific error code. It typically indicates one of the following:
Missing DLL Files: Essential system files are missing from the operating system, which is particularly common if the error occurs during an installation or upgrade.
Permissions or Group Policy: The Run As Service (RAS) account lacks the necessary permissions, or a Windows Group Policy is overriding local permissions, preventing the services from starting
Ratkaisu
To resolve this issue, the recommended steps are:
1. Verify Run As Service Account Permissions: Confirm that the Run As Service account used by Tableau Server has the necessary local permissions applied.
2. Check Group Policies: Ensure that no Group Policies are overriding the local permissions required for the service account.
3. Re-apply Permissions or Change Account: As a potential workaround, try changing the Run As Service account to a different account or manually re-applying the permissions for the current account to reset them.
