SYMPTOMS

On a Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional-based computer, the following information about event ID 4100 may appear one to two times a day in Event Viewer:

Event Type: Warning
Event Source: EventSystem
Event Category: Firing Agent
Event ID: 4100
Date: date
Time: time
User: N/A
Computer: computer name
Description: The COM+ Event System failed to create an instance of the subscriber {6295DF2D-35EE-11D1-8707-00C04FD93327}. CoCreateInstanceEx returned HRESULT 8000401A.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this behavior, use the Regsvr32 tool to unregister the Mobsync.dll file from the server:

  1. Click Start, click Programs, click Accessories, and then click Command Prompt.
  2. Type the following line, and then press ENTER:

    regsvr32 "%systemroot%\system32\mobsync.dll" /u

  3. Quit Command Prompt.

After you unregister Mobsync.dll, Client Side Caching (CSC) no longer works. The behavior described in the "Symptoms" section of this article does not affect CSC functionality, but unregistering Mobsync.dll does.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
