SYMPTOMS
Every time you restart your server, the following two events appear in the Application log in the Event Viewer: Event Type: Warning

Event Source: EvntAgnt

Event Category: None

Event ID: 1003

Date:

Time:

User: N/A

Computer:

Description: TraceFileName parameter not located in registry; Default trace file used is %1.

Event Type: Warning

Event Source: EvntAgnt

Event Category: None

Event ID: 1015

Date:

Time:

User: N/A

Computer:

Description: TraceLevel parameter not located in registry; Default trace level used is 32.



CAUSE
This problem occurs if you install the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) service but you do not also configure this service. These error events are logged by the SNMP service when you restart the computer. If the Evntagnt.dll file is not configured for debug tracing when the SNMP service starts, these two warning events are logged.



WORKAROUND
To stop these events from occuring, add the TraceFileName and the TraceLevel values to the following registry subkey:



Type: REG_SZ

Value: null (blank)

Type: REG_DWORD

Value: 32 (0x20)
