Exchange 2007 HUB Transport service will not start

We are seeing lots of this issue today after customers install security updates.  You may also see these events in your applicatiopn log:

Event ID   : 7009
Type        : Error
Message  : Timeout (30000 milliseconds) waiting for the Microsoft Exchange Transport service to connect.

Event ID  : 7000
Type       : Error
Message : The Microsoft Exchange Transport service failed to start due to the following error: %%1053

 We are seeing several different things resolve this one, depending on what else you are running on the box.  

The quick & easy one that seems to work in all cases is to change the Transport Service to use the local system account.  (NOTE:  Please don't use this long term, just to get you up and running until we have a better answer.)

Other possibilities for resolution:

  • Read the article on our Exchange Team Blog:  https://msexchangeteam.com/archive/2008/07/08/449159.aspx
  • Look at KB944752 and set the timeouts.
  • Remove RU3
  • Remove the other updates that were applied.
  • Look for event 4999 in the application log.  It points to calculateTiServerRoutes.  Do you have a 3rd party app that uses the same virtual server names as Exchange?  For example; Legato CoStandby Server?  If so,use adsiedit and check the attributes of the server.  I suspect that you will see the same value for ncacn_p_tcp in the networkaddress attribute.  This is the problem.  One needs to be removed or changed.

I will keep updating this blog as we get new information on this one.

    I've had a nightmare time with this problem the last two days. I have googled the issue to find hardly any info. I came across the post and followed the instruction of give the LOCAL SYSTEM account the log on as right. I will be keeping tabs on this post to see what other users come up with and to also see what the Transport service accoutn should be eventually set to.

    Any suggestions on the following error: Event ID: 4999 Watson report about to be sent to dw20.exe for process id: 3992, with parameters: E12, c-RTL-AMD64, 08.01.0375.002, edgetransport, M.E.Transport, M.E.T.C.RoutingTables.CalculateE12ServerRoutes, System.ArgumentException, cb00, 08.01.0375.002

    For me at least, this was a managed code issue (Discussed in the team blog linked above).  My exchange servers do not have internet access (as I imagine is the case for thousands of installs).  Quickest fix is to set up your hosts file to point at localhost for the crl servers.  (set crl.microsoft.com, crl1 – crl5.microsoft.com to 127.0.0.1 in your HOSTS file).
