Re: 0x8004010f error starting Exchange 2003 info store

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

I take it from the general silence on this issue that it's another MS "oops,
we never thought of that happening"?

I'm still completely unable to start the info store service on any Exchange
2003 server in my org. The objects defining the stores are still present in
the AD config containers, the permissions on all relevant objects are
present, and none of the information I've read explains a problem that
actually exists with my infrastructure.

Surely someone else has experienced this?

Try moving the RUS back to the 2003 Server.

I've deployed a few Exchange 2007 servers in our org and moved some mailboxes
to them. Additionally, I've moved some roles (OAB generation, RUS...) to
those Exchange 2007 servers. Immediately, and without warning, our Exchange
2003 servers are no longer able to start their Information Store or MTA Stack
services. When trying to start the info store, I get these two errors:

I've seen lots and lots of articles and blurbs about missing objects in AD,
lacking permissions on objects in AD, needing to re-run /domainprep....none
of these items have helped.

I'm quite sure that Exchange 2007 has botched our environment somehow, but I
have no idea how to get things back to normal. Anyone have any experiences
with this?
