Question

IMA service doesn't start

Asked by: x013229

I get the following error using MPS 3.0 and not sure how to fix it.  I also get another event view error stating that the grace period has expired and the server will not accept connections.  I tried CTX032712, CTX104239, recreating the LHC database, and looking at the registry settings to make sure the pointers for the subsystem are correct.  I'm not sure what else to do.  Thank you for your help

Error:
The Independent Management Architecture service terminated with service-specific error 2147483649 (0x80000001).

I've pulled some more info from the Citrix KB.  I have pulled the first 3 returns which weren't ones you had already seen.  If these don't fix it, then do another search on the Citrix KB and just put in 2147483649

Good luck,


~~~~~~~~~~~~http://support.citrix.com/kb/entry!default.jspa?categoryID=118&externalID=CTX103253&fromSearchPage=true~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Symptom

The IMA Service failed to start and the following error message appeared:

“The IMA service returned a specific error 2147483649.”

The Event viewer displayed the following event IDs:

Event ID: 3601, “Failed to load plug-ins with error 80000001h.”
Event ID: 3609, “Failed to load initial plug-ins with error 80000001h.”
Event ID: 7024, “The Independent Management Architecture service terminated with service-specific error 2147483649.”

Cause

Upgrading to a new service pack or after an attempt to restore a backup. The plug-in not loading shows as the value for CurrentlyLoadingPlugin under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Citrix\IMA\RUNTIME.

Resolution

Edit the registry and check out these two value names shown below. The plug-ins are stored in different directory if user applied MetaFrame XP, Feature Release 2 / Service Pack 2 or greater.

WARNING! This fix requires you to edit the registry. Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Citrix cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the incorrect use of Registry Editor can be solved. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.

Before applying MetaFrame XP, Feature Release 2 / Service Pack 2:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Citrix\Ima

Value Name: Directory: REG_SZ: C:\WINNT\System32\Citrix\IMA\SubSystems

Value Name: PluginDirectory: REG_SZ: C:\WINNT\System32\Citrix\IMA\SubSystems

After applied MetaFrame XP, Feature Release 2 / Service Pack 2:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Citrix\Ima

Value Name: Directory: REG_SZ: C:\ProgramFiles\Citrix\System32\Citrix\IMA\SubSystems

Value NamePluginDirectory:REG_SZ:

C:\Program Files\Citrix\System32\Citrix\IMA\SubSystems

Verify that the location specified matches the exact location where all the plug-ins are on the disk.
