Exchange 5.5 .edb files corrupted
We have an Exchange 5.5 server running on NT4. Our C: drive space went critically low and the Exchange server went down. We deleted some log files and rebooted...Exchange still will not come back up. Here are the errors we get in event viewer:
EID: 7024
The Microsoft Exchange Information Store service terminated with service-specific error 4294966746.
EID: 7001

The Microsoft Exchange Internet Mail Service service depends on the Microsoft Exchange Information Store service which failed to start because of the following error:

I do not have a current backup right now, I am backing up our *.edb files right now before I do any repairs (what are the repairs?). I really need help! Our priv.edb file is about 1.8GB. Let me know what I can do to get our server back up and running!

When I ran ESEUTIL /P /ISPRIV, it took a while and completed successfully.
When I ran ESEUTIL /P /ISPUB, I get the following error:
Microsoft(R) Windows NT(TM) Server Database UtilitiesVersion 5.5Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation 1991-1999. All Rights Reserved.Initiating REPAIR mode...
Database: ispub
Temp. Database: REPAIR.EDB
Operation terminated with error -1811 (JET_errFileNotFound, File not found) after 3.125 seconds.
When I ran the ISINTEG commands, I get this error for both commands:
JET Error JET_errDatabaseInconsisten
I hope there is something I can do yet?

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
Open a cmd prompt.
1. Run the following:
ESEUTIL /P /ISPRIV
ESEUTIL /P /ISPUB
2. Change to the EXCHSRVR\BIN folder. Run the following:
ISINTEG -FIX -PRI -TEST ALLTESTS
ISINTEG -FIX -PUB -TEST ALLTESTS
FYI:
You should never manually delete any Exchange tranaction logs. This is what happens.
