SYMPTOMS
After you install Microsoft Message Queuing (also known as MSMQ) 4.0 together with the Integration feature of Active Directory Domain Services on a server, the server unexpectedly runs in Workgroup mode. This problem occurs when you install Microsoft Message Queuing 4.0 together with the Integration feature of Active Directory Domain Services on a server, you uninstall Message Queuing 4.0, and then you install Message Queuing 4.0 together with the Integration feature of Active Directory Domain Services on the server again.



CAUSE
This problem occurs because of an orphaned Message Queuing object. The first time that you install Message Queuing together with the Integration feature of Active Directory Domain Services, the Message Queuing object is created in Active Directory. After you uninstall Message Queuing, the Message Queuing object remains in Active Directory. The Message Queuing object is orphaned. Because of this orphaned Message Queuing object, the server cannot run in Active Directory mode.



WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, use the Active Directory Users and Computer Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in to manually delete the Message Queuing object that was created the first time that you installed Message Queuing. Then, restart the Message Queuing service.

Note When the Message Queuing service starts in Active Directory mode, a new Message Queuing object is created in Active Directory.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the &quot;Applies to&quot; section.



MORE INFORMATION
To prevent this problem, uninstall the Active Directory Domain Services Integration feature before you uninstall Message Queuing 4.0.

Steps to reproduce the problem

 * 1) Install Microsoft Message Queuing 4.0 together with the Integration feature of Active Directory Domain Services on a server.
 * 2) Restart the server.
 * 3) Uninstall Message Queuing 4.0.
 * 4) Restart the server.
 * 5) Install Message Queuing 4.0 together with the Integration feature of Active Directory Domain Services on the server again.
