SYMPTOMS
You may experience one or more of the following symptoms on your Microsoft Exchange 2000 server:  Exchange 2000 Server unexpectedly stops responding (crashes) and the following event appears in the Application log of the Event Viewer:

Date:           Source:   ESE Time:           Category: General Type:    Error         Event ID: 485 User     N/A Computer:

 Exchange 2000 Server stops responding (hangs) and the following event appears in the Application log of the Event Viewer:

Date:           Source:   MSExchangeIS Time:           Category: General Type:    Error         Event ID: 9518 User     N/A Computer:

Storage Group - Initialization of Jet failed.

 When you try to restart the Microsoft Exchange Information Store service, you are unsuccessful and the following event appears in the Application log of the Event Viewer:

Date:           Source:   ESE Time:           Category: General Type:    Error         Event ID: 490 User     N/A Computer:

Description: Information Store (2148) An attempt to open the file &quot;D:\MDBDATA\E00.chk&quot; for read / write access failed with system error 5 (0x00000005): &quot;Access is denied. &quot;. The open file operation will fail with error -1032 (0xfffffbf8).

 When you log on to the computer locally, and you try to perform a write operation to the hard disk, you receive an error message that is similar to the following:

Access denied.



These behaviors occur even though you have confirmed that sufficient permissions exist for all write operations to the hard disk(s).



CAUSE
This issue may occur if you have the Trend Micro ServerProtect version 5.3 antivirus program installed on the Exchange server.

If the Trend Micro antivirus program is enabled, you may not be able to write to the hard disk even though you have sufficient permissions to do so.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, contact Trend Micro to obtain a possible update for the antivirus program.
