exchange 2010 won't mount edb database

Everything you described regarding your attempted fixes is in relation to the mailbox database. But the error clearly states that it is having issues with the public folder database. Those are two different databases. Try running a repair on the public folder database and then see if it mounts,

It's your public database that is the problem ?

Sorry cross posted

Sorry yes,
I also get these errors:

Active Manager failed to mount database Mailbox Database on server SBSSERVER.internetional.local. Error: An Active Manager operation failed with a transient error. Please retry the operation. Error: Database action failed with transient error. Error: A transient error occurred during a database operation. Error: MapiExceptionNetworkError: Unable to mount database.

And this one I just found:

The last can be because I tried to upgrade to SP2 which faulted after a while.

Few things :)

- Is all Exchange Services started ? "Test-ServiceHealth"
- Did you try to run "Setup.com /PrepareAD"

- Rancy

At the moment I try to reinstall SP2 so to be sure that it is installed correctly. As soon as it is finished I will try both options.

Did you check the databases for a clean shutdown after you ran eseutil /p
And the status/delete log files as per the below ?
http://www.virtualhelp.me/windows/579-exchange-2010-error-unable-to-mount-database

OK,

Installation of SP2 and rollup 5v2 went fine after I disabled all exchange services. But both databases still don't mount.

- Is all Exchange Services started ? "Test-ServiceHealth"
No, the Mailbox Server role gives a "False"

- Did you try to run "Setup.com /PrepareAD"
I just did it (again) and I get no error, just copying setup files and then a prompt again.

The log files are also corrupt.

Thanks,

Roger

Am waiting on Rancy ?

Not sure where he wants to go next with this

Hold off on my suggestions re the database
If you cannot mount fresh stores It suggests the problem is with the actual exchange installation ?

(Take it you re-enabled all the exchange services and checked they were all started?)

Well they are all started except for the information store.

Have you tried to start it
If it fails to start what is posted in the event log ?

Till IS wont start Exchange DB's cant mount ever as they are dependent .... check IS isnt dependent on any other service

Run EXBPA and ensure its clean

- Rancy

The event logs are the ones I posted above.  IIS is running an EXBPA gives only some warnings.

Roger

Can you check to see if the databases are in a "clean shutdown" state by running the ESEUTIL /MH command in the path of the databases? If they are clean, then move all log files out of their current location (copy them somewhere safe ) and try mounting the database then.

Nope, problem still stays the same. I see the information store srting and crashing all the time. I think the problem is the store.exe error.

Yes,
Reinstalling the SP didn't solve anything. I am going to completely reinstall the system.

Roger

OK ....... Awaiting for your response

- Rancy

Yep,
After a complete reinstall of the server, everything works again and the server is much faster also. I think there was something wrong with the complete installation. Maybe i cought a cold when moving the server ;-).

Thanks everyone for helping.

Roger

Eventually, I had to completely reinstall the server.

Good to know but was some storms during the time
