Directory services cannot start SBS2003 lsass.exe error?

Hi all

I have a SBS 2003 server who gave a customer who seems not to start windows.
It gives 0xc000007a error code (Directory Services cannot start because the specified procedure could not be found).
After finally the local Windows password reset, I am now faced with another problem, how to solve the problem I have for the first time to the difficulty.

I've done some commands listed on the Microsoft article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/258062, nothing helped.

I've already run the disk check, but it is impossible to run a repair on the installation because it shows the same error

Does anyone know how to get the server to start successfully, without the need to reinstall Windows?

System Spec: -.
2 x Intel Xeon processors
4 GB of DDR2 memory
company 3x250GB WD HDD (Raid 5 with parity)
Quantum Ultrium 2 tape drive

Hello

Thanks for your quick response to my post. I recently decided to reinstall the OS due to time constraints,

Thank you

  • Windows 7 RTM - lsass.exe error causes Windows reboot

    I got my copy of Windows 7 RTM de MSDN AA and have been in love ever since I installed it, all except for one problem.

    My computer is part of a domain the active directory.  I receive the following two errors:

    The failing application name: lsass.exe, version: 6.1.7600.16385, time stamp: 0x4a5bc155
    The failed module name: ntdll.dll, version: 6.1.7600.16385, time stamp: 0x4a5be02b

    The failed module path: C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\ntdll.dll
    Report ID: 1772eae8-9017-11de-a36a-001e8cb7e844

    About one second after the error, I get the following error:
    A process of critical system, C:\Windows\system32\lsass.exe, failed with status 255 code.  You must now restart the machine.

    Then, a message saying "Windows has encountered a critical problem and will restart automatically in a minute.  Please save your work now. "and then the computer restarts a minute later.

    I've found that I can pose the problem of two similar ways:
    1. I open Windows Media Center, and then watch videos, listen to music, etc..  Media Center to close and lock my computer.  Then immediately after, I unlock the computer, the message is displayed.
    2. I have block my computer, then unlock it then (I can do this as many times I love him without the following message is displayed).  As soon as I open Media Center the message appears.

    That there seems to be a problem in lsass.exe or ntdll.dll I pulled copies of my installation disc and ran a MD5 checksum by comparing those in C:\Windows\System32 for those from the installation disc.  There is no difference between them.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hmmm, the problem seems to have fixed itself automagically.  I do not even install Windows updates except for the regular update of Windows Defender.

  • Services cannot start Windows do not (MMC errors)

    I'm new to Microsoft Answers.

    I'm having a strange problem. Yesterday when I turned on my computer in the morning, I realized that Firefox, Windows Media Player, Avast, security Windows, Windows Search, Windows Update Center and possibly more programs or services would not run or run correctly.  I can't imagine what I did which would lead to this problem.  I tried a system restore, but that does not solve the problem.  I scanned with 4 different antivirus (with installed both 1) applications and nothing was found.  The problem seems to be with Windows Services won't start do not.  There are 5 services in the Microsoft Management Console is configured to start automatically, and possibly others built in the manual which do not start. Attempt to start manually generates them an error and that the problem is not resolved.  Here are some of the errors I receive:

    Error 1079: The account specified for this service is different from the account specified for other services running in the same process.

    Error 1053: The service did not demand launch or timely control.

    the service on Local computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs.

    Error 1297: A privilege that the service needs to function properly does not exist in the service account configuration. You can use the GPMC Microsoft (MMC) Services (services.msc) snap and snap MMC local security (secpol.msc) settings to display the configuration of the service and set up the account.

    I tried a solution online that suggested the layout "NT AUTHORITY\LocalService" under "this account:" field in the dialog box properties of the service of a donor, but that does not work either. My system is also significantly more sluggish, with the CPU at a constant 100% and I can't install software (for example, Google chrome would not install but Opera would be.)  The installation wizard is not just open for Chrome). Open the Microsoft Management Console runs also on global blocks (it is not just the MMC that does not).

    Any help would be appreciated. I am running Windows Vista Home Premium SP2

    Service permissions seems to be different from XP in Vista.  In XP load you a security template and then adjust through which access permissions.

    It is possible to download for Vista security models and then try this method of adjustment of Service permissions.

  • The Windows fax service cannot start because there is no such thing as a privilege in the fax service account.

    I'm trying to set up Windows Fax and Scan to store faxes "received" in a folder encrypted (EFS). (I use Windows Vista Business).

    The fax service will not start if it set to log on as a "local system account", but faxes are stored with the certificate of local system and inaccessible to other users.

    To work around this problem, I tried to configure the Fax Service to log on under a specific user account. However, after that and try to re - start the Service I get.

    Error: 1297 as a service privilege is needed to function properly does not exist in the service account configuration.

    One of the services that begins with the "local system account" does not automatically start with a normal user account and if you get the message.  Most of the services are designed to start with the local system account and not a special user account (actually, not on my system using a specific user account for services).  I think that part is OK and you must return it to the local system account (so eliminate the error message and remove that as a problem to solve).

    I think the question may also be a permissions problem in the user access to the fax.

    To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/.  To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

    To resolve this problem with folders, appropriating the files or the drive (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions.  You can change now switched to read-only (even if the main folder indicates that they are always read-only - you can access yourself as the owner).  You can keep them in read-only to other users, customers and administrators even (although they can support themselves and access, if they wish, and it is really not that you can do to stop it except protect the file with a password by using a 3rd party product.)  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html.  To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/.

    If that is indeed a problem of certificates (and it seems there is a but looks like he takes care of himself with the Wizard), then we must make the certificate available to all users of the system (from where it is now stored) - and I think I saw how to do this in secpol.msc.  Here is some information I found on EFS secpol.msc in the public key policies (you can get it by entering this in the area of research and the antering and then a double click on the program icon that appears) where you would put in place.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Encrypting File System (EFS) is an encryption technology of base file used to store the encrypted files on NTFS file system volumes. Encrypted files cannot be used unless the user has access to the keys needed to decrypt the information.

    Encryption is transparent to the user that encrypted the file. This means that you don't have to manually decrypt the encrypted file before that you can use. You can open and edit the file as you normally would. Once you encrypt a file or folder, you work with the encrypted file, or a folder like you do with any other file or folder.

    The use of EFS is similar to using permissions on files and folders. Both methods can be used to restrict access to the data. However, an attacker who gets physical access unauthorized to your encrypted files or folders will be prevented from reading. If the intruder tries to open or copy your encrypted file or folder, he or she receives an access denied message. Permissions on files and folders do not protect against unauthorized physical attacks.

    You encrypt or decrypt a folder or file by setting the property of encryption for files and folders, as you define another attribute such as read-only, compressed, or hidden. If you encrypt a folder, all files and subfolders created in the encrypted folder are automatically encrypted. It is recommended that you encrypt at the folder level.

    You can also encrypt or decrypt a file or folder using the Cipher command.

    When you work with encrypted files and folders, keep in mind the following information:

    • Only the files and folders on NTFS volumes can be encrypted. However, you can use Web distributed authoring and versioning (WebDAV), which also works with NTFS, to transfer files in encrypted form.
    • Files or compressed files can also be encrypted. If the user marks a file or folder for encryption, that file or folder will be uncompressed.
    • Encrypted files are decrypted if you copy or move the file to a volume that is not an NTFS volume.
    • Moving files unencrypted in an encrypted folder will automatically cause these files to be encrypted in the new folder. However, the reverse will not automatically decrypt files. The files must be explicitly decrypted.
    • Files marked with the system attribute cannot be encrypted, nor can files in the system root directory structure.
    • Encrypt a file or a folder does not protect against the removal or the list of files or directories. Anyone with the appropriate permissions can delete or list encrypted folders or files. For this reason, the use of EFS in combination with NTFS permissions is recommended.
    • You can encrypt or decrypt files and files located on a remote computer that has been enabled for remote encryption, but, in this version of Windows, the data that is transmitted over the network by this process is not encrypted. Other protocols, such as Secure Socket Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) or Internet Protocol security (IPsec) must be used to encrypt data while they are transmitted over the network. (You can also use WebDAV, as described in the first bullet, to pass the file in encrypted form.)

    EFS policy settings

    You can use Group Policy to configure a number of EFS settings.

    Allow or disallow the EFS

    You can choose to allow or prohibit the use of EFS altogether. If you do not configure the policy settings for EFS, it is OK.

    The EFS options

    If you choose to allow EFS, you can also select a number of options, such as whether to automatically encrypt the Documents folder of the user, to require a smart card for use with EFS, to cache keys created based on a smart card, to enable the encryption of the Windows page file, or to notify users to make the backup copies of their encryption keys.

    EFS certificate

    EFS encryption is based on the pairs of keys associated with certificates. In most managed environments, the certificates are issued by a certification authority (CA) running in the field. Users can automatically be issued a certificate from the CA without manual intervention. EFS settings include a drop-down models of certificates that are available in the field list so that you can specify which certificate template to use for autoenrollment.

    Note
     

    The list includes all the models of certificates, present in the field. An administrator must configure the CA so that certificates can be issued. Some displayed certificates are not available.

    In cases where a certificate cannot be issued by a certification authority, EFS can use a self-signed certificate created on the local computer (there is a section in secpol.msc to create a certificate). You can choose to disable this functionality and specify a default key length.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    I don't know if that helped or not.  Please let us know and be specific about what other questions, you may have because I don't know what you mean and which is still confusing (and to be honest, I am a little confused at this point - it is not an easy task to accomplish).

    Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system. For
    each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver, description,.
    version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - Device Manager - Display Adapter - note the brand and complete model of your
    video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now click on UPdate Driver (this
    cannot do anything as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then do a right click - Uninstall - REBOOT
    This will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party with their
    own the software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now go to the site of the manufacturer of system (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (restoration) and then of the manufacturer of the device
    (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for the BIOS, Chipset and software)
    updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - tab drivers version you install actually shows up. This
    because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (particularly that audio drivers) so install a
    pilot - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat if necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW on device at the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER - manually check by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    How to install a device driver in Vista Device Manager
    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-Device-Manager-install-driver.html

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver in the Windows updates,
    This leaves ONE of Windows updates, but it will not install the drivers who are generally older and cause
    questions. If updates offers a new driver and then hide it (right click on it) and then go look for new ones
    manually if you wish.

  • Cannot start Windows Defender getting error 0x8007042d

    I tried to turn on my windows Defender, but when I do I get this.   Error 0x8007042d service is not started because of the failure of log-0n. How can I fix it?

    toddtrb

    Verify that the following Services are running.

    "Windows Update" and "Windows Defender".  To join the Services type services.msc in the start / run box.

    Some anti virus programs can disable Windows Defender to avoid any conflict in operation together.  What anti-virus software are you running?

    Windows Defender and Microsoft Security Essentials
