SBS2k3: Store is Inconsistent, can not find log file.
Database dismounted yesterday, just found out today. My database has had a dirty shutdown. Running eseutil /mh "c:\...\mdbdata\v1.edb" (copy of db) I get the following report:

Continueing on to the eseutil \r I am getting a log files can't be found error. I'm looking at my directory report, and the last log file was created on 8/24/2011
I'm also discovering that the system isn't doing the nightly backup, so I'm put into another spot on this.
Any suggestions please?

seems to be your data store got corrupted. You may need to restore it from previously working backup. Check that the hard is good. Also, make sure that the hdd is fine.

Sadly, it would appear that my daily backup is corrupted. Something else not previously known.
I am still looking at my backup files, it is possible I may be able to find one as I am running more then one backup (for this reason).

Option?
Create a new Store which would allow the server to process mail.
This would allow the option of working the damaged store while the new store is handling current mail. Then merge the recovered db into the new store.

Thank you everyone - Managed to get the DB repaired using ESEUtil -
I kept running into errors with the path from the BIN folder to the database folder. So I copied the contents of the BIN folder to the temp folder where I have all the log and data files. That worked and after about 3 hours of running, I got a clean db to work with. Now it's on to merging the old DB into the new DB.
