RE: Catalog database error

Hi,

Thank you for posing here.

From the post, I understand you encountered 454 event on your Small
Business Server.

Based on my research, Error 454, Source ESE indicates Information Store
(<PID>) Database recovery/restore failed with unexpected error <error>.
So we need to realize what is 1080 related?

Please check the event viewer and memorize the PID number, open Windows
Task Manager on your Small Business, go to Processes Tab, click View-Select
Columns, select PID (Process Identifier).


Regarding this issue, I suggest you restart the Exchange System Attendant
service or reboot the server and check if it disappears. In most cases, it
is a transient event and a restart of the service can solve it.

This issue can also be caused by antivirus software. Make 100% sure that
you do NOT have any File-level antivirus scanning ANY exchange directories.
The most common cause of missing log files is because a File-level
antivirus application has quarantined or deleted a log file
because it detected a virus in one of them. If you are running file-level
AV, then you need to make sure you exclude all of the exchange directories,
especially the log file directory and database directory:

-Exchange databases and log files

-Exchange .mta files (default location: \Exchsrvr\Mtadata)

-Exchange message tracking log files (default location:
\Exchsrvr\Server_Name.log)

-Virtual server folders (default location: \Exchsrvr\Mailroot)

-Site Replication Service (SRS) files (default location: \Exchsrvr\Srsdata)

-Internet Information Service (IIS) system files (default location:
\%SystemRoot%\System32\Inetsrv)

-Internet Mail Connector files (default location: \Exchsrvr\IMCData)

-The working folder that is used to store streaming temporary files that
are used for message conversion. By default, this working folder is located
at \Exchsrvr\MDBData.

-A temporary folder that is used in conjunction with offline maintenance
utilities such as Eseutil.exe. By default, this folder is the location that
you run the .exe files from, but you can configure this when you run the
utility.

-DC's sysvol folder and all its subfolders (C:\Windows\Sysvol)

See:

Also please apply the last Service Pack and hotfix for SBS Server and
Exchange Server.


Please do not hesitate to let me know if you have any further concerns.

Have a nice day!
