help with a short mdmp file


I'm not a programmer, but I'm in charge of a application server that is showing these errors in a mdmp file.  The application crashes have been blamed on hardware, but the below suggests otherwise.  

My first guess is that OMRrefr.exe is crashing when it does something with mscorwks while releasing memory?

Help a sys admin avoid the heat.  Thanks!

Is the application showing any exceptions when this is happening?

I've not been able to see the errors from the web interface.  Then again, the error's only show up in the logs a few times a day.

When I log in to the machine locally, I see numerous errors listed about OMRrefr.exe in a error application list box ready to be sent to MS for "further analysis".

In the application event log, I see:
        .NET Runtime 2.0 Error
        EventType clr20r3, P1 OMRrefr.exe, P2 1.0.0.1,
        P3 4362dacf, P4 mscorlib, P5 2.0.0.0, P6 4333ab80,
        P7 4055, P8 a3, P9 system.invalidoperationexception,
        P10 NIL.
and
        OMRrefr.exe,
        An error has occurred while establishing a connection
        to the server.  When connecting to SQL Server 2005,
        this failure may be caused by the fact that under the
        default settings SQL Server does not allow remote
        connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error:
        40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)

This suggests trouble with connecting to a SQL DB, but I do not see a single error on either machines suggesting a network interruption.

I have a perl base service whose interpretor is kept on another share, it would show errors if it were unavailable, so I do not believe it is a connectivity issue.

Is this a Windows 2003 server?

Bob
I couldn't find a reference for OMRrefr.exe, so I was thinking that it could be either for Windows 2003 Server or SQL Server 2005 (which I don't have either).  

If you are getting these exceptions in a log, but the application is not experiencing any problems, then it might be a self-healing problem, and this is just a report of the initial problem.

That is difficult to tell, though, without really understanding the environment.

Bob
Understood.  
Do you think I can rule the problem as hardware vs code issue?   e.g., more likely a memory issue than a connectivity issue?
