Discovery and Imaging service offline

Hello everyone.

I inherited a WDM server with the issue in the title.

A netstat command show no service listening over port 8008, whereas other service such as scheduler over port 9900 are correctly shown.

Local windows FW rules show this port open.

Unfortunately none of our current team has any knowledge of what specifically happened on the 9/11/2023 date other than some other software was installed on the server. Removing said software didn't solve anything.

Can anyone suggest some troubleshooting steps?

thank and kind regards

F.
