[Arsen Guschin]

Hello,

For some reason (I don't actually know what it was) I've lost EventSystem service on my server (Windows Server 2003 SP1). As a result a lot of services are now failed to start or to work properly.
There is no "COM+ Event System" service in Services manager, and

shell> net start EventSystem

returns "Service name is invalid".

How I can register this service? Or maybe there is another way to fix my problem?

Thanks.

could you do a copy and paste on your error in event viewer...not sure what you are asking.

Your w2k3 isn't in safe mode by any chance?

Can you check if the Remote Procedure Call (RPC) service is present and started?

yes, it is there and running.
