Stop default nav service then run the other service ,after that again start the default nav service.

i think Default nav server means Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server,
the status of Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server is stopped only,
i dint get what exactly the other service means?

Have you had a look in the application event viewer to see if there is a message that may help undestand why it has stopped?

Are you trying to start the Server instance or a Web Service Instance? I encountered the same error when I was trying to start a Web Service instance of the server that wasn't properly installed?

There are some posts on the MSDN site for Dynamics NAV that walk you through installing the service properly with the SC command.

I have gotten this error before, it seems to happen (for me) when I have edited the configuration file and messed something up. Check it carefully, including servername and database name, because these are the keys most often edited.

If those values in the file are not correct, then the service will not start.

Are u using SQL Server 2008 R2 ? I had this problem with SQL 2008 but when the R2 version was installed everything was alright.
Try to change The user of Nav Service by u (The administrator) and not Network Auth and restart ur service.

Dear All, today I have sort out said problem. I have change the configuration file (CustomSettings.config) located in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics NAV\60\Service
replace the following line

<add key="WebServicesDefaultTimeZone" value="UTC">

with

<add key="WebServicesDefaultTimeZone" value="Server Time Zone"></add>
