I have a SQL 2000 server that recently began throwing the message below in the Event Log at every transaction or full backup event:
The description for Event ID ( 17055 ) in Source ( MSSQLSERVER ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: 18265, Log backed up: Database: model, creation date(time): 2005/06/21(11:21:04), first LSN: 16:72:1, last LSN: 16:72:1, number of dump devices: 1, device information: (FILE=1, TYPE=DISK:
I have been perusing the web for solutions and found two KB articles (920707 & 940941) that appeared to be related but the proposed resolutions did not stop the Events from generating.
-920707 - My services have full control of the folders where SQLEVN70.rll and SQLAGENT.dll live
-940941 - I do not have SQL Server event forwarding turned on
My server is running SQL Server 2000 SP4 Standard Edition on Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition SP1 32bit.
Any ideas?
