SCCM “Site Component Manager failed to install this component on this site system” for SMS_DMAPPSVC_CONTROL_MANAGER when installing the Application Catalog web service point

I am trying to install the ConfigMgr Application Catalog web service point on a remote Site System.

However I am getting the following Status Message for the SMS_DMAPPSVC_CONTROL_MANAGER component:

Site Component Manager failed to install this component on this site system.
Solution: Review the previous status messages to determine the exact reason for the failure. Site Component Manager will automatically retry the installation in 60 minutes.

All files installed.
Starting bootstrap operations…

Bootstrap operations aborted.
Installation failed and will be retried in the next polling cycle.

“MP Control Manager detected management point is not responding to HTTP requests. The HTTP status code and text is 401, Unauthorized”

I have a Management Point that when I view it in Site Status in the Console (Monitoring\Overview\System Status\Site Status) it’s Status is showing as Critical. It is also reporting Error Status Message ID 5436.

If I look in mpcontrol.log I am seeing:

Http test request failed, status code is 401, 'Unauthorized'.

I have tried all kinds of things such as removing and reinstalling the MP, running the prerequisite check for the MP to make sure I haven’t missed anything there, and even a Site Reset all without success.
