problems with 'manage your server'

HMO Fallen Angel · Aug 1, 2007

Hi everyone,
I have a windows 2003 server sp2, everything was working fine, and then,
right on the middle of opening my regedit32, we had a power failure. the
server was shuttingdown and restarting continuously, finally i could get to
the last good known configuration and could access my server.
I've been checking settings and testing it and found out these issues

1.- when i open the 'manage your server' screen, and i select 'add/remove a
role' i got this mesage:
"Windows cannot find the file or page you requested
(%WinDir%\system32\cys.exe /skipwelcome) Press F5 to refresh the manage your
server page and then lick the link again"
I can manually go to \windows\system32\ and run cys.exe and i get to the
server wizard without any problem.
2.- If i select the 'manager your file server"' i got the same error just
with different filename, " FS.msc"
in this case, if i go to \windows\system32 and run FS.msc, first i got a
screen saying 'cannot find resource file', I click on the OK button and then
another screen shows up saying 'MMC has detected an error in a snap-in and
will unload it' and gives me 2 options, report this error to microsoft and
thenn shut down MMC and the second one, unload the snap-in and continue
running. I click the second option and get another screen 'unhandled
exception in managed code snap-in', FX:{f7da6f14-f244-401a-9259-f015a82057d3}
type 'microsoft.starage.fileserverrole.invalid configurationexc,

any idea on what is going on or what link orconfiguration I have lost?

RE: problems with 'manage your server'

I guess i found the problem.
Looking on the enviroment variables, under system variables, I only have the
'cluster log' with \c:\windows\cluster\cluster.log
and 'path' with
"SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem"
what other path i'm missing?

Re: problems with 'manage your server'

I was about to start making these changes, and then tried the 'set' on
command prompt and it displayed the whole informacion.
So, if i use 'set' i see all the paths and everything, but if i go to
'control panel, system, advanced, enviromental variable' i don't see all of
them.
what can be causing this?
should i make the changes anyways or leave them like that?

Re: problems with 'manage your server'

Environment variables are done a bit differently, you may not see them all
in the System Variables section. The ones you should see from there are:
ClusterLog
ComSpec
FP_NO_HOST_CHECK
Number_of_processors
OS
Path
PathExt
Processor_Architecture
Processor_Identifier
Processor_Level
Processor_Revision
Temp
Tmp
windir

Temp and Tmp are overwritten by a user specific variable.

Charlie Russel - MVP · Aug 9, 2007

Re: problems with 'manage your server'

you definitely NEED ComSpec and PathExt. See my original post for what to
set them to. Temp and tmp must be set as well, but can be set on a per user
basis, though you should also have a general one for things that happen
outside of a user context.

I have no idea what FP_NO_HOST_CHECK does or is used by.

ComSpec defines what the command line shell is (C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe,
normally.)

PathExt defines what extensions are searched in what order when you type a
program name (or click on something that does). Without PathExt, there are
no executables on your system.

Re: problems with 'manage your server'

We've recently experienced similiar difficulty with our W2k3R2 server

There is similiarity because the 'Manage Your Server' returns a blank
window. In our case the 'Search' form returns with a Blank shell and
'Extended' view in MMC for 'Services 'is blank too.

Would these be caused by a failure in the environment variable?

Any assistance would be appreciated.
