The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Group policy errors (event ID's 1030 & 1058)

Asked by willmarple in Windows 2003 Server

Tags: Microsoft Server 2003

Can someone please point me in the right direction as to how to fix these group policy errors.  I'm currently in the middle of trying to get a new working self-signed certificate going on my exchange 2007 server (which obviously is not the server in question here, but is in the same domain) and suspect that the lapse in availability of a valid certificate may have caused the problem (the only supporting evidence of this suspicion being that this error began occurring around the same time as all of the exchange certificate problems).  However, I'm not really sure where to proceed.  the gpo.ini file that the error is complaining about does actually exist in that location.  I don't know what the problem is and why the system can't use it.  Here are the errors from the event logs.

There is also one error from the system log that may be of interest.
