Hey all, get the following message when i try and uninstall Exchange 2k. <Error Message> Setup failed while (error 0x80005000: An invalid ADSI pathname was passed.) .
Additional information: An invalid ADSI pathname was passed. ID no: 80005000 Microsoft Exchange Setup Microsoft Exchange Messaging and Collaboration Services Function: ScGetCurrentFlavorOfSetupInstalled CCompServer::ScPreSetup CComExchSetupComponent(%s)::PreInstall </Error Message> I cant work out what the problem is, going through the log file for the setup program, it has entries stating that SMTP & NNTP arnt installed and it cant remove them, however it is installed. Ive tried doing a "Setup /forestprep or /domainprep" as well and then trying to do a remove install but it still dont work. Im out of ideas here and i need to get it back up and running, a total rebuild if the box & AD isnt what i had in mind!!!!!! Any advice would be well appreciated. Technet turned up dry as well.
