Logging thousands of errors, oerflib and sbsmonitoring

Thursday, June 18th, 2009
I’m receiving these two errors again and again:

 

Windows cannot load extensible counter DLL MSSQL$MSFW, the first DWORD in data section is the Windows error code.

 

Windows cannot load extensible counter DLL MSSQL$SBSMONITORING, the first DWORD in data section is the Windows error code.

 

What might be generating them and how can I cure it?

 

The system is SBS 2003 R2 Premium.

 

Thanks.

    According to the KB article below, it is a permissions issue:

    “To resolve this problem, you must grant the Read & Execute permission to the Network Service account on the performance counter DLL for SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services.

    I am also getting thousands of these errors in the application log of 3 SBS machines.

    They are all running SBS 2k3 sp1, at least 1 of them is R2 version of 2k3.

    The 912399 article says:

    RESOLUTION

    To resolve this problem, you must grant the Read & Execute permission to the Network Service account on the performance counter DLL for SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services. The DLL is located in the following folder:

    C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.x\OLAP\Bin\Msmdctr90.dll

    Additionally, you must grant Read permissions to the Network Service account on the “bin” directory and the “bin\en” directory for SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services. For example:

    C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.x\OLAP\bin
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.x\OLAP\bin\en

     

    I didn’t have those specific directories, but I gave Network Service permissions for any similarly named directories and it fixed the problem. Thanks

    Any idea what created the problem to begin with?

SBS 2003 and Exchange iPhone Syncing

Saturday, February 14th, 2009

Ok, a quick post to help resolve the classic iphone exchange syncing issues that heaps of people may be experiencing. So im going to post the solution that worked for us.

Problem was we could get make the iphone sync on the internal lan, but the second you leave the office and try to connect externally, no joy. Here is what worked for us.

1. Install SP2 on the exchange server, you may experience message filtering errors if you have left this to late, so you need to google removing IMFv1 before doing sp2 update

2. open the correct ports on the firewall, http and https <- this is all you need, outlook web access and iphone sync works on https port (443)

3. Make sure the microsoft-server-activesync directory server ip allow list is set to all computer, not restricted to local computers (this was the biggest problem we were having). You change this under the IIS manager on the sbs server, under website, default site, microsoft-server-activesync, directory security, authetication and access controll, change to allow all computers!!!

good luck and hopefully this will fix your problems.

Microsoft SBS 2008 and installing SQL Server 2008

Thursday, February 12th, 2009

Ok a quick post for those out there who had the same problems i had with trying to setup SQL server 2008 (bundled with SBS Server 2008 Premium), you will notice during install you get an error telling you that SQL 2005 Express Tools are installed and need removing. If you goto add/remove programs this item doesnt exist. OK to make it simple, you need to uninstall the SQL Management Studio Express Tools, once completed re-run the setup and you should be in the clear.
