IMPORTANT: This article contains information about modifying the registry. Before you modify the registry, make sure to back it up and make sure that you understand how to restore the registry if a problem occurs. For information about how to back up, restore, and edit the registry, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

256986 Description of the Microsoft Windows Registry



SYMPTOMS
The Terminal Server Licensing service may not start, and the Event log may contain an Event ID:43 with the following description:

Work Manager error Can't Startup work scheduler, Error code -1072167891.

The Debug log may contain the following error:

13124 [9:19:21:39:59.953] : CWorkManager::Startup : Persistent storage has failed to startup - 0xc018042d



CAUSE
On a large database (larger than 80 megabytes), Jet transactions can take up more memory. The version store keeps a list of changes that are made to the database since the oldest transaction began. Having a transaction &quot;hang&quot; (run for a long time before it commits) or make a lot of modifications in one transaction, can cause Jet to run out of version store.



RESOLUTION
WARNING: If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.

To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Windows 2000. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

260910 How to Obtain the Latest Windows 2000 Service Pack

Edit the registry to tune the memory resource that is needed for version store in Jet. To do so, start Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe), and then locate the following key in the registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\TermServLicensing\Parameters.

Add the following registry value to this key:

Value name: MaxVerPages

Data type: REG_DWORD

Radix: Decimal

Value data: 1,024

Range is from a minimum of 256 to a maximum of 2,048.

The English version of this fix should have the following file attributes or later:
