Exchange 2003 on Windows 2000 Server...Sys Attendant causes ha
in [Microsoft Exchange]

From: Ryan on 17 Sep 2008 09:56 Thanks for responding. This was a necessary (although temporary) upgrade, as I don't really like doing these types of upgrades either. I will be doing a clean install (and migration) of exchange 2003 on a 2003 server eventually...but perhaps not for several months, so I'm trying to get this problem taken care of. To answer your question, I have applied SP2, which I believe is the latest service pack from what I saw on the website. "Ed Crowley [MVP]" wrote: > First, let me say that I hate in-place upgrades.

Yea, those are probably the symptoms, not the cause :) Have you run ExBpa against the server?

From: Ryan on 17 Sep 2008 14:30 I tried the Troubleshooting Assistant...not the Bpa...I will try that. Thanks for the suggestion. The only 3rd party software installed is Norton AntiVirus Corporate Ed.
