Exchange 5.5 IMS problem

[aktaton]

Greatings to all,

Our Exchange 5.5 IMS server died and I built another server. When I triy to delete the old IMS connector, I get "RPC server is unavaillable" error message.
When I tried to install a new connector without deleting the old connector, it returned "the service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion" error. Any Ideas? Thank you.

hi,

There may be multiple causes for this error.

1. The system date is incorrect and set to a year beyond 2038.
2. Anti-virus software was installed before the Exchange Server installation.
3. A later version of Web browser than the version that ships with Windows NT 4.0 is not installed.
4. You are not logged in using the Exchange Server service account.


WORKAROUND

To work around the problem:

Change the system date to the correct date and time, and re-run Setup.For additional information, click the article number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: 154595 XADM: Directory Won't Start if System Date Later Than 2038

For many of these cases, disabling the anti-virus services is not sufficient. In those instances, an unistall of the anti-virus software is necessary. Perform the upgrade or installation. Reinstall the anti-virus software after installation.
