Memory leaks? Are you sure? You do know Exchange using all available memory if it needs it, right? Sure beats wasting it. >>I receive event errors 7001 What is the full text of these errors? >>The first step is to remove and reinstall the Internet Information Service. Or just reinstall. Not remove. Rename the metabase.bin file and reinstall IIS. When that is successful, you reapply the latest Windows2000 service pack. When that is successful, you use the reinstall option and reinstall Exchange2000. When that is successful you reapply the latest Exchange 2000 service pack. A different path than is outlined in Q304166 and Q290290 can result in restoring from backup. >>I am wondering if there is another underlying issue that is being overlooked. Could be. Like improper shutdown procedure or A/V scanning of the metabase.bin file. How often do you reboot? The answer shoud probably be something like... Only for service packs. -----Original Message----- From: ARAE NETWORKS [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, July 23, 2002 9:51 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: IIS Metabase Issues I rebooted our MS Exchange 2000 server too regain memory due to the memory leaks. Upon restart the MS Exchange and IIS and SMTP and WEB services would not start. I receive event errors 7001 and when trying to manually start these services we get general messages and access denied. This never occurred before upon a reboot and we haven't changed anything. MS states that the Metabase is corrupted an referred the Q article of Q304166. The first step is to remove and reinstall the Internet Information Service. This was attempted however the WWW service which was selected did not install. I reapplied SP2 and tried again. I am wondering if there is another underlying issue that is being overlooked.
