Question : Please Advise, very urgent issue, Event ID: 8197,  Event Source: MSExchangeFBPublish

Dear all,

I have Exchange 2003 with the latest service pack and all the hot fixes installed, I have it installed on a the first domain controller in my enterprise network, the domain controller is a Global Catalog with integrated DNS zone.

About 1 week ago I noticed so errors on my Application Log on this server;
Event Type:      Error
Event Source:      MSExchangeFBPublish
Event Category:      General
Event ID:      8197
Date:            23/11/2008
Time:            9:53:45 PM
User:            N/A
Computer:      DC1
Description:
Error initializing session for virtual machine DC1. The error number is 0x80070005. Make sure Microsoft Exchange Store is running.

Now I cant do a rebuild for my OAL at all, I formatted a laptop for one of my clients and I cant even make a new outlook profile for him, I couldn't resolve his name when creating the profile even though I can do a resolve process to a person with a near spelling name.

I have 4 Mailbox Store: Low, Medium, High and Unlimited, I have around 136 users exchange mailboxes enabled on the server on one administrative group.

I tried ISINTEG, when finished the application log look fantastic and everything is perfect and I was able to rebuild the  OAL till I tried to do right click and start mailbox management process,   this is when the problem start all over again with me not being able to rebuild the OLA and with errors in the Application Log.

tomorrow I will to do some repairs with ESEUTIL and run an offline derangement with it

Any Idea please, I don't know if this is a Data Base related issue or an Exchange Application issue.

if you want any clarification, please don't hesitate to ask

Best regards
