File replication problem - gone worse!

Hi all! I'm in a real pinch and could use some assistance.
Backstory: Small Business Server 2003 running on Hyper-V 2008 (non-R2). Been running fine for years. Two months ago we decided to upgrade to Exchange 2010, so I set up a new Hyper-v Server & two new VMs (one for Exchange, another as a secondary DC).
Problem: I noticed that when I reboot the 2003 box systems on our network couldn't authenticate to log in, etc. until the 2003 VM came back up. I started digging & found that the 2012 box wasn't replicating. I ran DCDiag tests & found errors regarding
FRS, & telling me to enable journal wrap automatic restore. However, as I started to Google I saw numerous posts stating that was bad, and to use the BurFlags to do a non-authoritative restore (by setting the reg value of BurFlags to D2). So, on the 2003
box I made a copy of the Sysvol folder, backed up the group policy objects, and then set that value & restarted FRS.
HOWEVER, it doesn't look like that has resolved my issue. And, in fact, has made it worse. Users can't connect to Exchange (via Outlook), I'm getting topology errors & group policy errors, I can't log on to the 2003 box via Remote Desktop (getting errors
saying the domain doesn't exist or can't be contacted), etc. Essentially, the situation is worse.
I can still get to the 2003 box via the Hyper-v console terminal, so I have access to the box.
Also, just yesterday I moved this 2003 VM to a different host, so I have a backup (essentially) that I can get to, though I'd rather not have to start from that move & have to manually sync today's work. But, if I can get in there to backup/recover something
& then apply that to the newly moved VM, that is an option.
How do I fix this? I'm thinking I can perhaps stop the FRS & put the backup of SYSVOL (that I made before the BurFlags change) & restore the group policy objects I exported previously, & then restart FRS, but seeing as I was led astray last time
I do not want to jump the gun & mess it up worse.
My priority is to get everyone back up. Then, secondarily I can chase down why the sysvol journal wrap error was happening in hopes of getting my new DC replicating properly.
Not sure if this is out of bounds or not, but I am more than happy to pay a consultant to help me get through this. I just need to know I'm dealing with someone who knows this stuff inside & out & who can help me fix it quickly.
Thanks in advance!

Let me get it right, you have got Windows 2003 SBS (small business server). SBS is a different giant & it has to be treated as a master. Btw, if you are using SBS server, you can install AD, Exchange, SQL, SCCM etc on the single server.
SBS needs to hold FSMO role & if you transfer it to another, it will behave inconsistently & would reboot the system. Two SBS server can't exists in the same domain.
Also, installing Exchange or another application on other servers requires separate licenses to be purchased for each application. If you have purchased SBS server which by default includes licenses for the apps like Exchange, ISA etc.

  • The File Replication Service has detected that the replica set "DOMAIN SYSTEM VOLUME (SYSVOL SHARE)" is in JRNL_WRAP_ERROR.

    Hi!
    I recently took over management of a Windows 2003 domain that had only one domain controller.  I was building a second DC for redundancy and discovered that the SYSVOL share on the original DC is in "JRNL_WRAP_ERROR" after the SYSVOL and NETLOGON
    share would not create on the new DC.  This error goes back as far as the log goes back so I don't know how long it has been in this state. 
    The message in the event log states to enable "Enable Journal Wrap Automatic Restore" but I found a KB article that says to use the BurFlags key instead. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290762
    Should I run an authoritative restore since I don't have another domain controller with a good SYSVOL?
    The File Replication Service has detected that the replica set "DOMAIN SYSTEM VOLUME (SYSVOL SHARE)" is in JRNL_WRAP_ERROR.

     Replica root volume is : "\\.\C:"
     A Replica set hits JRNL_WRAP_ERROR when the record that it is trying to read from the NTFS USN journal is not found.  This can occur because of one of the following reasons.
     [1] Volume "\\.\C:" has been formatted.
     [2] The NTFS USN journal on volume "\\.\C:" has been deleted.
     [3] The NTFS USN journal on volume "\\.\C:" has been truncated. Chkdsk can truncate the journal if it finds corrupt entries at the end of the journal.

     [5] File Replication Service could not keep up with the rate of Disk IO activity on "\\.\C:".
     Setting the "Enable Journal Wrap Automatic Restore" registry parameter to 1 will cause the following recovery steps to be taken to automatically recover from this error state.
     [1] At the first poll, which will occur in 5 minutes, this computer will be deleted from the replica set. If you do not want to wait 5 minutes, then run "net stop ntfrs" followed by "net start ntfrs" to restart the File Replication

    The automatic restore process AFAIK will initiate a D2 restore. And if
    there's no other DC, sysvol might be gone.
    I really would prefer to have control - this means I would do a D4.
    Absolutely I would :)

  • File sharing problems and horror story (nearly)

    I use Leopard on a MacBook Pro, a MacBook and a iMac G4 800 MHz (unsupported model).
    I have on the iMac and the MacBook Pro many users (the same ont he two machines) and I always use Fast User Switching.
    I have had very few problems with Leopard until now; I like it even if there are some glitches or some new features which are not my cup of tea (hierarchical menus missing from the dock, stacks useless when there are many items, FireWall impossibilities (?) to open specific ports, Back to my Mac working on a Lan but not from outside until now, problems with a few apps (Parallels networking erratic), ...
    Now about File Sharing.
    Let say my main account is user1 (Administrator), and I have another user2 also administrator, plus user3, user4 standard users.
    On the iMac I activate File Sharing.
    On the MacBookPro, as user1, if I connect to the iMac Server (using afp://IPaddress_of_theiMac/) I do NOT get the dialog
    "Enter your user name and password to access file server YYY
    Connect to server as Guest or as Registered User"
    but I directly get the dialog
    "Select the volumes you want to mount on YYY"
    From this, if I select user1 it mounts with full read/write permissions which is normal. It appears that I am connected with my Apple account user1&mac.com (same as mentionned in the Account panel of System Preferences).
    On the other hand, if I try to connect to the user2 account, I only get limited access although in the File Sharing Preferences, user1/iMac is mentionned with full Read/Write preferences for the Home Folder of user2.
    What is very surprising is that if I log on the MacBook Pro as user2, or user 3 or user4, then connect to the iMac, I first get the dialog to enter a user name and a password. This gives me access with the correct full permissions on user1/iMac or user2/iMac using the corresponding user name/password pair; this is the usual behaviour which is missing when trying to connect from user1/MacBook Pro.
    Now for the Horror Story!
    Trying to understand what was going on with the permissions of the user2/iMac account, I logged in to the iMac as user1, went to the Users folder and from there had a look on the informations about user2 home folder. In the lower part of the pannel, Sharing & Permissions says "You have no access" (which is normal) and this is followed by a table where users and permissions are listed. It seems user1 has Read and Write access in contradiction with the preceding phrase...
    Anyway, I tried to modify these authorizations for user2 by clicking on the lock of the Information pannel and entering name and password of the administrator. Didn't go farther than that. By mistake, I hit Command-Delete and user2 was GONE from the list AND NOT ONLY from the list in the Information window! Using Fast User Switching and going to user2, nothing left on the Desktop and NO Home anymore.
    In the System Preferences/Accounts panel, user2 was still mentionned.
    In the Users folder, no user2 folder anymore.
    Using once again Fast User Switching, I logged as user2 and got by magic an all new Home. Nothing left in Documents, Library or other user1 folders. Standard settings for icons, dock, etc.
    My first move has been to use a very recent backup to restore everything (Thank you Mike Bombich from Copy Cloner!).
    Once everything was back to normal, I had a look at the Trash from user1 and guess what, the Home folder of user2 was there, complete.
    So now I am left with two questions
    why is it I do not have the same dialogs when connecting from all the accounts although as far as I can see, configurations are the same?
    why is it possible, from an Information pannel to delete the account of another user?
    Thank you all for comments!

  • PDF 'File Save' problem in Firefox

    Using Firefox browser, when I select a PDF file that opens in a new window [rather than a new tab], save it and close the window, the AcroRD32.exe process is not stopped.  If I then open another PDF file in a similar manner, it can not be saved.  Each time you close a PDF window, you have to go to Task Manager and stop the AcroRD32 process before being abl;e to save a subsequent document.  This does not happen with IE.
    Using Reader 10.1.1 and Firefox 8 on a Windows Vista32 system.

    Same bug i see in Opera browser. PDFs doesn't saves without stopping AcroRd32 process. And save dialogue doesn't appears when clicking links (even if web browsing function deactivated in adobe reader settings)...
    Apart from this File Save problem, there is more strange things while browsing PDF online, like "blinks", hangs, image dissapear, suddenly lags without any reason, browser crashing and more...
    So, because adobe reader prevents to download PDFs, and because it works very buggy with online browsing, especially if website uses adobe flash to show PDFs, the only right solution i found is uninstalling adobe reader. After that File Save problem was gone!

  • How can i solve this replication problem between TT and ORACLE

    Hi
    I have an application that using AWT cashgroup implement the replication between TT (7.0.6.7) and ORACLE(10g);
    but i encounter this problem:
    16:16:50.01 Err : REP: 2302682: ABM_BAL_WH:meta.c(4588): TT5259: Failed to store Awt runtime information for datastore /abm_wh/abm_bal_ttdata/abm_bal_wh on Oracle.

    the isolation level of my date store is read-committed ,and the sys.ODBC.INI file is also set Isolation=1(readcommitted mode)
    so ,I still wonder how the error ORA-08177!
    how can i solve this replication problem?
    thank you.

    I suspect this is failing on an UPDATE to the tt_03_reppeers table on Oracle. I would guess the TT repagent has to temporarily use serializable isolation when updating this table. Do you have any other datastores with AWT cachegroups propagating into the same Oracle database? Or can you identify if some other process is preventing the repagent from using serializable isolation? If you google ORA-08177 there seem to be ways out there to narrow down what's causing the contention.

  • Recreate file replication eventlog view

    I am having
    an issue and have no idea how it happened. We took over a domain and in the event viewer, there is no log area for File Replication Service. I understand that DFSRS has kind of replaced this service and replication is happening over the 4 DC's with no issues
    but I am wondering if I get the service started for peace of mind. Every DC does not have this application and service logs, event viewer.
    What I have tried so far:
    Went into the system event log I see this error: A timeout was reached (30000 milliseconds) while waiting for the File Replication service to connect.<o:p></o:p>
    The service has been disabled on every server. I tried to enable it and above is the error I received when I tried to start it in the event viewer. I then proceeded to try to look in the registry
    and I noticed there were no entries HKLM/system/CurrentControlSet/Services/eventlog for the File Replication Service. I exported that File Replication Service and imported it into the 4 servers. I closed and reopened computer management and the file replication
    service event viewer showed up. It also was logging this Information log: The File Replication Service is starting. And then throwing this error: This domain controller has migrated to using the DFS Replication service to replicate the SYSVOL share. Use of
    the File Replication Service for replication of non-SYSVOL content sets has been deprecated and therefore, the service has been stopped. The DFS Replication service is recommended for replication of folders, the SYSVOL share on domain controllers and DFS link
    targets. <o:p></o:p>
    My next step was to try to register the dll files there were being used in the registry: %SystemRoot%\system32\els.dll (this one registered properly) C:\Windows\system32\ntfrsres.dll this one
    failed. I tried to replace the dll file but it said I need permissions from the TrustedInstaller to make changes to this file which is where I stopped. <o:p></o:p>
    Any ideas on what I should try next?
    Craig Becker

    Hi Craig,
    So it is actually an AD related issue.
    On Windows Server with FRS replication, to rebuild we can perform a D2 (nonauthoritative mode restore) to replicate from another DC. 
    Backing Up and Restoring an FRS-Replicated SYSVOL Folder
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/cc507518(v=vs.85).aspx
    However as now your DCs are replicating with DFSR - is this your problem?
    If so, please refer to this article to do a non-authoritative sync instead:
    How to force an authoritative and non-authoritative synchronization for DFSR-replicated SYSVOL (like "D4/D2" for FRS)

    First of all, to troubleshoot the problem it would help to put some filepath indicators at each point so that you can see what is going on. Also, in your exe having an error dialog "Simple Error Handler.vi" to let you know what LabVIEW didn't like in the exe.
    Now, when you run a top level ("Main.vi") and use the "Current VI's Path " in the development mode it returns <Filepath>\"Current path"\Main.vi. So stripping once will get you to  <Filepath>\"Current path" .    Now if you make it into an exe the "Current VI's Path" returns <Filepath>\"Current path"\"Name.exe"\Main.vi so you are "nested" one deeper.
    I use the following construct to determine whether the vi is being used as in the development environment or as an exe, the parse the path accordingly, although in this instance it is used to supply different directory names to a little more complex file system.

    Error when opening iTunes : iTunes has stopped working '' A problem caused the program to stop working correctly''.
    When I repaired damaged files the problem still exists and also after uninstalling, redownloading and reinstalling iTunes.
    My pc is working with windos 8.
    Is there a solution?

    Hey there Rodney274,
    It sounds like you are getting an error from iTunes when you launch it. I would try the troubleshooting in this article named:
    iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1717
    Start with troubleshooting for 3rd party plug ins section, then the rest of the article if needed:
    Start iTunes in Safe Mode
    Open iTunes in Safe Mode to isolate any interference from plug-ins or scripts not manufactured by Apple.
    Hold down Shift–Control while opening iTunes. You should see a dialog that says "iTunes is running in safe mode" before iTunes finishes starting up.
    Click Continue.
    See if the issue you're experiencing persists in Safe Mode.
    If you have the same issue while iTunes is in Safe Mode, proceed to the "Create a new user account" section. If you don't experience the same issue, follow these steps to remove third-party plug-ins.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • File Info problems in Photoshop CC & CS5.1 on OS X 10.8

    I have recently upgraded my Macs, running OS X Mountain Lion, from Photoshop CS5.1 to Photoshop CC for two reasons:
    1. Because it most the most cost efficeint way to obtain the latest Camera Raw plugins that are no longer supported in CS5.1
    2. Because I began experiencing issues on two Macs where initially only in Bridge, was I no longer able to input any File Info dialogue.
    I make extensive use of File Info templates, which are then applied to batches of files in Bridge before individual files, or groups of files requiring the identical metadata are modified.
    After a time, once the overall batch of File Info templates had been applied to files I discovered that I was unable to edit them further. Even after Repairing Permissions in Disk Utility it usually took a reboot to fix the problem, although the problem was always solved.
    However there came a point a few weeks ago when I was unable write any further metadata to File Info, in Bridge or Photoshop, no matter what I did. Again this issue happened on two Macs so I'm guessing that it is not a machine issue.
    As I needed the latest Camera RAW plugins as well I decided to upgrade to Photoshop CC, which I have to say I have been very pleased with - until now. The dreaded File Info problem has now occurred again, although currently only in Photoshop, not Bridge. When I try to add or modify any information in File Info in Photoshop CC the dialogue box just closes!
    Clearly it is not just a Photoshop CC issue although I never had the problem prior to CS5.1 and I leapfrogged CS6 and I find it hard to believe that it is a machine issue. Could it be a conflict with the OS or with Extensis Suitcase Fusion 4?
    Has anyone else encountered this problem?

    Curt, Thanks for your rapid response.
    To answer your questions. I thought that, initially, the problem might be a permissions problem but it occurs on both boot drives and also when the same files are copied to Firewire external drives - on both Macs, but different external drives in each case. I followed your link but there was nothing there that I didn't already know or hadn't already tried, thanks.
    One computer is a 24" iMac and the other is a 15" MacBook Pro. I've also tried to replicate the problem on four PowerMac G5s running OS X 10.5.8 with Photoshop/Bridge CS4, with the same drives plugged in, but have experienced no problems at all. It's quite bizarre.
    Also, looking deeper into the conundrum, I find that I can't input any numbers, only letters! Using the keyboard all numbers, whether on the main or auxiliary keypads, cause the File Info dialogue box to either jump to a new tab or close. Using Shift on the numbered keys works perfectly however!
    It just goes on getting better...

  • File transfer problem

    I have a 2009 intel iMAC running 10.6.8.  Several months ago it developed a file transfer problem.  When transferring files to an external server via ethernet cable, most of the time it will only let me transfer one file at a time whether is a small word document or a large video file that is several gigabytes.   Even with transferring just one file, the elapsed time bar will not indicate the file has completely transferred.  It stays open and appears as if it is still trying to transfer even though the file size transferred is equal to the size of the file.  Plus the only way I can close the the transfer bar is to relaunch finder.  Then when I go to the folder it was transferring it to, the entire file will be there.
    Suggestions?

    Have you tried restarting the external drive and the computer?

  • 10.8 Server file sharing problem

    We have a new Mac mini with 10.8 and OS X Server app. The mini has direct attached storage and will be used mainly for File Sharing. There is a repeatable problem/bug with case sensitive folder names and file sharing. For example a folder named "Editorial" is inacessible via "Connect to Server" from a client on the LAN. The same folder with the same permissions, same everthing, except it is named "editorial" works perfectly. Change the uppercase E to a lowercase e and it works. The drive is formatted with normal HFS+. It is Not HFS+ case-sensitive. I have Xserves running 10.4, 10.5, and 10.6 for file sharing and none have this problem.
    Has anyone else experieced this? Is there a fix? Other than making everything lowercase.

    If you have a problem please start a thread of your own.  Don't get us confused between solving two different problems.
    Simon,
    The subject of this thread is dealing with:
    "Server 10.8 file sharing problem"
    Specifically for direct attached storage file sharing permissions issue.
    Client computers having issues with folder permissions
    These are exactly my issues as well. I was hoping to try a solution here or maybe proffer a solution if found elsewhere.  I did not realize each problem should be opened as a separate discussion....

  • File sharing problems with my Media Player, an A C Ryan

    I have a media player, an A C Ryan, hooked up to my wifi at home and it normally accesses all my hard disks that is plugged and shared on my iMac. I had no problems when the iMac was on Snow Leopard. Under Network/Workgroup in the AC Ryan's menu, I can see and access all the files on the hard disks.
    The moment I upgraded to Lion, all such access was lost. The AC Ryan cannot connect to the hard disks any more via the wifi network. it's as though file sharing has stopped completely. I checked the file sharing settings on the iMac and nothing has changed i.e. the disks were shared as usual. After struggling with many possible solutions and failing (I checked out a lot of forums), I reintalled Snow Leopard and the problems were immediately solved.
    Is there something seriously wrong with Lion's file-sharing? Has this been fixed in 10.7.2? My friend who has a similar setup (his media player is the WD Live) has exactly the same file sharing problem with Lion.
    I would appreciate any feedback. Thanks!

    I believe that NTFS-3G has issues with Lion.
    I use Paragon NTFS and have had no issues at all. I am pretty sure that NTFS-3G will get updated, but you need to check their site to find out when.

  • Dynamic html file generation problem

    I have a HTML file(abc.html) which is used when user clicks on a particular link in my web application. Web application has been developed in java. Now due to certain law changes , user wants to add some notices to existing HTML file(abc.html). So when he clicks on the old link, he gets abc.html with those notices appended to it. All the notices are different HTML files.
    So it looks like simple file append problem. But if it will modify my original file permanently, then it is not helping my purpose.
    So my doubt is , how I can append different notices html files to abc.html file and still keep my abc.html file as it is because the changes are based on user conditions. So if X is affected with new laws, he will see abc.html along with notices , if Y is not affected, then he will see abc.html only.

    The best solution would depend on the implementation details of your current web app, but, likely, the easiest way is to convert your html files to jsps. The jsp can then conditionally include relevant disclaimer fragments.
