COM+ Event System hangs on startup

[Guest Paul Goldman]

I installed 3 ShoreTel voicemail servers, each running Windows 2003 Server

Appliance Edition. I upgraded each server to SP2, then installed the

ShoreTel voicemail server code. Everything was working fine until we added

the servers into the domain. I noticed that many of the automatic services

no longer started. Assuming that there was a problem with some Group Policy,

I dropped the server out of the domain and returned them to their original

workgroup. The problem, though, persists. The first sign of a problem is the

fact that the COM+ Event System does not start, but gets hung in the

"Starting" mode. In the Event Log is the following message: "The COM+ Event

System detected a bad return code during its internal processing. HRESULT

was 80004015 from line 150 of

d:\nt\com\complus\src\events\tier2\service.cpp."

 

I have checked the Microsoft Knowledge base to no avail and have reached a

dead end. Has anyone successfully recovered from this error??

These aren't quite it but may be worth looking at.
