How to recover from a corrupted registry that prevents Windows XP from starting
I have tried the recovery disc but get the same result.
How could that happen?
If you are restoring the hard drive to its original factory-fresh state, then there is no registry to be corrupt.

Analysis Services failing to Start . File system error: Error occurred during the creation of directory

Hello All,
Posting this problem here and hoping for a solution from the experts in this forum.
When i have restarted the Analysis Services , i see that it has been stopped but never started back. It fails with an error
"The SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER) service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs."
When Checked the Event Viewer i see the following error -
The service cannot be started: The following system error occurred: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect. File system error: Error occurred during the creation of directory: '\\?\E:\OLAP\MSSOLAPFactory\OlapData;M:\Test
Backup'.
I remember changing the BackupDir value of Analysis Services few days back, and i think it could have impacted. Can you please help me how can i change back the BackupDir value and have the server back?
Let me know if you need any more details
SG

Is this still an issue? If so, I would find msmdsrv.ini and make sure you don't have two folders listed in the BackupDir (or DataDir or TempDir). You'll have to runas Administrator to edit the msmdsrv.ini file and save changes. Once you fix that, it should
succeed.

CAN ANYBODY HELP ME WITH WHAT TO DO?

1)Do u have a third party security software installed?
This could be due to that... What are the different virus scans you are already having.. there may be third party firewall or security product
which is interfering the windows firewall.. disable one by one your security scanners and try to up the windows firewall
(2)if you dont have such firewall product installed, this could be due to malware or some other problem...
if you have an antivirus solution, update it's definitions, and do a full system scan..
If you dont have a antivirus solution or your one is not working, use one of the recommended tools (use only one of
them at a time)

On my Laptop, a Toshiba A210, I get an error saying that windows failed to start. File:\boot\bcd status: 0xc000014c. i already put in a windows recovery disc and it still came up with this message.

Sickbeard fails to start. "Unable to write PID file" [Solved]

I've installed sickbeard from the AUR but can't seem to get it started.
when running "sudo systemctl start sickbeard.service" I get the following output:
Job for sickbeard.service failed. See 'systemctl status sickbeard.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details.
'systemctl status sickbeard.service' provides:
sickbeard.service - SickBeard daemon

Feb 23 14:49:19 arch systemd[1]: Failed to start SickBeard daemon.
Feb 23 14:49:19 arch systemd[1]: Unit sickbeard.service entered failed state
And it looks like 'journalctl -xn' provides about the same info:

-- The result is failed.
Feb 23 14:49:19 arch systemd[1]: Unit sickbeard.service entered failed state
Also, here is the current systemd file for sickbeard, if that helps:
[Unit]
Description=SickBeard daemon
After=network.target
[Service]
EnvironmentFile=/etc/conf.d/sickbeard
User=sickbeard
Group=sickbeard
ExecStart=/usr/bin/sickbeard --nolaunch --daemon --quiet --config "$SB_CONF" --datadir "$SB_DATA" --port "$SB_PORT" --pidfile=/run/sickbeard/sickbeard-8081.pid
Type=forking
TimeoutStopSec=20
PIDFile=/run/sickbeard/sickbeard-8081.pid
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
So I guess obviously the important part is "Unable to write PID file: No such file or directory [2]", but I'm not really sure what that means or how to fix it. I've played around with the PIDfile configuration for the systemd service (tried renaming from sickbeard to sickbeard-8081) but I always get the same error.
Any ideas?

The sabnzbd systemd unit file doesn't use a pidfile. Not sure why. It would make more sense there than it does for sickbeard, because IMHO sickbeard should run as the user who owns the target tv-series media folders. Using tmpfiles.d just causes a headache when you are going to update it using the AUR package.
I installed it once using sickbeard-git from AUR, changed the systemd unit file and /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/sickbeard.conf to match my user, chown -R'ed /opt/sickbeard, ran "pacman -R --dbonly sickbeard-git", and ever since use "git pull" to update. That also works directly from web interface.

Tried to download and reinstall iTunes after file corrupted. Download proceeds, but does not complete. Message states "Apple mobile device failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services."

My iTunes became corrupted. I tried to upgrade to a new version, but things only got worse. Some of the error messages I received:
APSDaemon - Unable to locate component
This application has failed to start because MSVCR80.dl was not found. Rinstalling the application may fix this problem.
So, I deleted my downloads and past attempts and any .dl files I had and tried again. Now I get this message:
Today: Apple Mobile Device failed to start. Make sure you have sufficient privileges to start system services.

The NLS operation failed because the registry key Control Panel\International\User Profile cannot be opened. Error code is 2. Error message: The system cannot find the file specified.

H,
Since upgrading Windows server 2008 R2 to Server 2012 Standard edition, we get this repetitious critical error in the event log:
Event 1001
Op Code NLS initialization
The NLS operation failed because the registry key Control Panel\International\User Profile cannot be opened. Error code is 2. Error message: The system cannot find the file specified.
We originally found that the regional date settings after changing them in regional settings (DD/MM/YYYY) and they did not inherit properly from the upgrade but they are ok now.
I've looked at HKCU\.Default\Control Panel\International and nothing looks obviously wrong. Country codes, time & date formats are correct.
How do we ascertain the cause of this error and the specific registry key that might be problematic?

Hi,
This could be caused by firewall rules or security softwares.

That DLL is part of your printer driver; reinstall or update the device driver for your printer, and the message should go away.

I did the recommended re-install to resolve the missing MSVCR80.dll file. This worked, but I am now stymied by two error messages: "Apple Mobile Device failed to start" and "Apple application support not found". How to overcome?

That worked, however I now get two error messages when I install I Tunes:
o Apple Mobile Device failed to start.
o Apple Application Support not found.
This were of course deleted in the recommended re-install procedure to resolve the dll file, but repeated uninstalls and installs simply bring up these two error messages with a recommendation to install I Tune again. Installing the new I Tunes version seems to be problematic per the discussion groups and has no simple solution. SHould not the Genius bar be able to resolve this at an Apple Store? Want to buy a new I Phone 5S, but this problem effectively stymies this.

When trying to launch ITunes I get an error message saying that application fail to start because MSVCR80.dll file not found. Reinstalling app may fix problem.

I've just (finally) managed to fix this problem today. I checked the Apple Support forums, and it seems a lot of people are having the same problem.
I rang the Apple Support line, and the very helpful man (thanks Alan!) talked me through it stage by stage. If you go to the following page on the internet: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376 it takes you through the process. WARNING - it takes a little time!
Basically, the first thing you have to do is go to your Program Files and double click on your iTunes folder. There'll be a number of files with the suffix .dll - you need to move all the .dll files from that folder to your desktop - you can simply click and drag them on the desktop..
Next, uninstall iTunes - go to Control Panel / Add/Rempve Programs and when the list comes up remove iTunes. This will take a few minutes... Then reboot your computer.
Next, go back to Control Panel / Add Remove and Remove - IN THIS ORDER -
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot again!
Next, check in your Program Files that the iTunes folder is completely gone - if it has, great: if it hasn't, right-click on the folder and press Shift and Delete - it will say "Are you sure you want to completely remove the folder "iTunes"? Click on "Yes".
Reboot!
Then go to the iTunes download page and voila! It should download iTunes without any problems... well it did for me.... Good luck!

When attempting a sync with my iPod Touch gen 5 I get this error "The iPod "****" could not be synced because the sync session failed to start." I could not find the backup file to delete per researched support recommendation. I have synced this iPod.

"....could not be synced because the sync session failed to start." I have synced this iPod with this MacBook Air about 6 weeks ago. Now it won't sync. A possible solution is to delete the backup file located in Mac:~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/ However, I don't have a "MobileSync" folder in my Application Support folder. Please help.
