Information Store Svc fails to start
Randy Heise
log drive. New graphics artist has been advised of correct
storage drive and space has been cleared. Now Information
Store service refuses to restart returning an 'server
specific' error code of 4294965485. Also both Event Svc
and Internet Mail Svc which are dependent are not
starting. Directory Svc, Transfer Agent Svc, and System
Attendant Svc are starting just fine. Have warm booted,
cold booted, talked to box, kicked box, etc. See several
KBase articles pertaining to IS startup issues but none
with that specific error code.
Can anyone point me to a resource or tell me what the
error means and some possible solutions before I try to
restore the database from the previous nights backup and
hopefully only loose 12 hrs of mail?
Thanks

Try to find out what files got "cleared" by the graphics artist. If we lost
some critical files like say.. the edb files, thats not so good.
Use eseutil /mh to find the consistancy of the databases. If they are
inconsistant then we would need at least edb.log, the edb files, and
possibly some hex logs to get it to start. We can dump the check file to
find out what we need. If the databases are consistant you can move out
everything except the edb files and you'll be able to start--but your log
set will reset and you will need to make an immediate backup. To better
answer your question, find for us what files are currently in your mdbdata
folders and also find what files were "cleared".
