From: Terence Liu [MSFT] on 14 Aug 2007 06:26 Hello Simon, Thank you for your post here. I understand that you encounter error 800423f4 when trying to backup SBS Server. If I have misunderstood your issue, please do let me know. I suggest that we first perform following generate troubleshoot steps to see how it goes. 1. Please apply the following hotfix first, most this error will be fix by this hotfix: 828481 Error 800423f4 appears in the backup log file when you back up a volume by using the Volume Shadow Copy service in Windows Server 2003 http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;828481 2. Since the error refers to the MSDEWriter, this issue may be related with Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine (MSDE) database files. As 0x800423f4 is translated to VSS_E_WRITERERROR_NONRETRYABLE, I suggest that we have a check the service account issue of the MSDE instance. 1). Run Services.msc to bring up the Service console. 2). Double click MSSQL$SHAREPOINT to open the properties page. 3). In the logon tab, please make sure this service is running under Local System Account instead of a specific account. 4). Please check the same settings with MSSQL$SBSMONITORING service. 5). Restart the server and test your issue again. 3.

Try to find NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM Foreign Security Principal in Active Directory Users and Computers. If you do not find it, please run the following command to add it back: net localgroup users "NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM" /add 2). Decided to try installing a new MSDE instance as a test using the following command: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server SP4\MSDE\setup>SqlRun13.msi blanksapwd=1 INSTANCENAME="SBSTEST" DATADIR="C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\" TARGETDIR="C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\" /L*v "C:\windows\temp\MSDE_SBSTest.log 3). Start the MSSQL$SBSTEST service. Also start the MSSQL$SBSMONITORING and the MSSQL$SHAREPOINT services. 4). Then test the SBS Backup. 5). If the backup success finish, please uninstall the SBSTEST MSDE Instance from Control Panel - Add/Remove Programs. Test the SBS Backup. If the issue persists, please kindly help me collect some information for further investigation: 1. Save application event log and system event log as evt files on problematic machines and send to my mailbox: v-terliu(a)microsoft.com 2. Please gather and send me the entire NTBackup log file for further analysis. C:\Documents and Settings\<user name>\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Windows NT\NTBackup\data 3. Please gather an MPS setup report: 1) Please download the MPSRPT_SETUPPerf.EXE from the following link and then run this tool to gather some information from the problematic computer: http://download.microsoft.com/download/b/b/1/bb139fcb-4aac-4fe5-a579-30b0bd9 15706/MPSRPT_SETUPPerf.EXE 2) Double-click on the MPSRPT_SETUPPerf.EXE file. [Note] This process may take some time; however, it will not have a negative effect on the performance. 3) A CAB file will be generated in the %systemroot%\MPSReports\Setup\Reports\Cab directory called %COMPUTERNAME%_MPSReports.CAB. The CAB file will contain the reports generated by the MPS Reporting Tool. Send the .cab file directly to me at v-terliu(a)microsoft.com Hope these steps will give you some help.

From: Simon Daniel on 15 Aug 2007 21:26 Thanks a lot Terence. Your suggestion to install a new MSDE instance MSSQL$SBSTEST fixed the problem. After I uninstalled the MSSQL$SBSTEST instance the backup still works.
