SYMPTOMS
When you run the Knowledge Consistency Checker, one of the following pop-up error messages may be displayed:
-or-
The following events may also be logged in the Windows NT Application Event log:
Event ID: 1124
Source: MSExchangeDS
Type: Error
Category: Knowledge Consistency
Text: The consistency checker encountered an
internal error and can't continue checking the
consistency of this directory. Stop and restart
this Microsoft Exchange Server computer.
Event ID: 2024
Source: MSExchangeAdmin
Type: Warning
Category: Replication Configuration
Text: An error was encountered by the knowledge
consistency checker on server '<server name>'.
<<0xc1030b0d - An internal error has occurred during
directory replication. Stop and then restart the
directory service. Then try directory replication again.>>
CAUSE
The following registry entries do not contain the correct Organization, Site, or Server Name, respectively:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeSA \Parameters\Enterprise
NOTE: The above registry key is all one path; it has been wrapped for readablilty.
-or-
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeSA \Parameters\Site
NOTE: The above registry key is all one path; it has been wrapped for readablilty.
-or-
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeSA \Parameters\Server
NOTE: The above registry key is all one path; it has been wrapped for readablilty.
WORKAROUND
To work around this behavior, change the registry entries to match the correct Organization, Site, and Server Names specified in the Microsoft Exchange Directory and restart the server. To verify the correct Directory Name for the Organization, Site, and Server, run the Microsoft Exchange Administrator program in Raw Mode and note the "Directory-Name" attribute in Raw Properties for each of the three objects.
MORE INFORMATION
This behavior can occur if a server is reinstalled with an incorrect Organization, Site, or Server name, and only the following registry entry has been corrected rather than performing a reinstallation of the server:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeMTA\Parameters\X500DN
The System Attendant may still start, and this behavior may not be otherwise noticeable.
