Hi, @MohamedSaleh
Make sure that the product key is entered correctly and that the activation is successful. You may need to run the installer again and re-enter the product key using the "Upgrade Version" option. Verify that the service account has the necessary permissions. You can change your service account to a Network Service or domain account. This can sometimes resolve issues related to service availability. You can check this link:
Install Power BI Report Server - Power BI | Microsoft Learn
Check the report server logs for any error messages that might provide more information about the problem. Logs are typically located in the C:Program FilesMicrosoft Power BI Report ServerPBIRSLogFiles directory.
Also make sure there are no firewalls or network settings blocking the service. Sometimes, network policies interfere with the availability of services.
