KB152529 - XADM: Crash in Srvrmax.exe (RtlQueryInformationAcl) During Setup

WORKAROUND

WARNING

Start Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe).

Under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE subtree, go to the following subkey:

      System\CurrentControlSet\Services\EventLog\Application

Starting with the first key under Application, select Permissions from the Security menu. Make sure the Windows NT account being used as the Microsoft Exchange service account is in the list and has FULL CONTROL rights. Repeat this for each key down the list.

When you find a key that does not contain the service account in its list, it is the key that is most likely causing the problem.

Compare the name of this key with what is in the "Raw Stack Dump" of the Drwtsn32.log. For example, in the sample log in the More Information section of this article, the stack dump lists:

      .......
      0012d37c  00 00 00 00 49 00 6e 00 - 74 00 57 00 69 00 72 00
      ....I.n.t.W.i.r.
      0012d38c  65 00 4d 00 73 00 67 00 - 53 00 65 00 72 00 76 00
      e.M.s.g.S.e.r.v.
      0012d39c  65 00 72 00 00 00 00 00 - 6f 00 6e 00 6e 00 65 00
      e.r.....o.n.n.e.
      0012d3ac  63 00 74 00 6f 00 72 00 - 00 00 65 00 63 00 74 00
      c.t.o.r...e.c.t.

This points to the Integra Wireless Messaging Server Key (in the registry as IntWireMsgServer) under:

      HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ 
      System\CurrentControlSet\Services\EventLog\Application

In the Permissions dialog box, click Add and select System as Full Control and Creator Owner as Full Control and click OK. (It is also possible to delete this particular key to resolve the problem; however, the consequences must be fully known before proceeding with the deletion)

Quit Registry Editor.

Run Microsoft Exchange Server Setup again.

MORE INFORMATION

This problem has been seen mainly when upgrading a computer running Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0 that has the Integra Wireless Messaging Server for Microsoft Exchange installed.

The Drwtsn32.log will look similar to the following:
