SBS 2003 Best Practices Analyzer problem - microsoft.public.windows.server.sbs

I downloaded and installed the SBS 2003 Best Practices analyzer on a SBS 2003 R2 server and when I launch the program I receive this error: --------------------------- SBSBPA.exe - Common Language Runtime Debugging Services --------------------------- Application has generated an exception that could not be handled. Process id=0x3e0 (992), Thread id=0x20fc (8444). Click OK to terminate the application. Click CANCEL to debug the application. Anyone have any ideas?????

done that 4x, and also D/L from different sources just to make sure that the source was not the issue.

Unfortunately, there is no entry in any of the event logs when this error is encountered. The on screen error appears within a second or two of launching the BPA application.

In Add/Remove Programs, what versions of .Net do you have installed? You might also try disabling any 3rd party apps (like antivirus software) before you run the BPA. And/or maybe try rebooting into in Safe Mode and running the BPA. -- Merv Porter [SBS-MVP] ============================ "Chuck" <ceo@gmx.us> wrote in message news:#I5dEpWaKHA.1596@TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... > Unfortunately, there is no entry in any of the event logs when this error > is encountered. > > The on screen error appears within a second or two of launching the BPA > application. > > > "Merv Porter" <mwport@no_spam_hotmail.com> wrote in message > news:eTBbr%23VaKHA.5572@TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... >> In the Application Event Log, can you post the text of the error that's >> associated with this event. >> >> -- >> Merv Porter [SBS-MVP] >> ============================ >> >> "Chuck" <ceo@gmx.us> wrote in message >> news:#wZlUaVaKHA.740@TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl... >>> done that 4x, and also D/L from different sources just to make sure that >>> the source was not the issue. >>> >>> "Merv Porter" <mwport@no_spam_hotmail.com> wrote in message >>> news:%23Y05EGVaKHA.5572@TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... >>>> Re-download and then reinstall? >>>> >>>> -- >>>> Merv Porter [SBS-MVP] >>>> ============================ >>>> >>>> "Chuck" <ceo@gmx.us> wrote in message >>>> news:#MZoweTaKHA.2164@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl... >>>>> I downloaded and installed the SBS 2003 Best Practices analyzer on a >>>>> SBS 2003 R2 server and when I launch the program I receive this error: >>>>> >>>>> --------------------------- >>>>> SBSBPA.exe - Common Language Runtime Debugging Services >>>>> --------------------------- >>>>> Application has generated an exception that could not be handled. >>>>> Process id=0x3e0 (992), Thread id=0x20fc (8444). >>>>> Click OK to terminate the application. >>>>> Click CANCEL to debug the application. >>>>> >>>>> >>>>> Anyone have any ideas????? >>>>> >>> >>> > >

Dotnet 1.1 is part of the OS (SBS2003R2) so it does not show on the add remove programs list, but the others there are Dotnet 2.0 sp2, Dotnet 3.0sp2 and Dotnet 3.5 sp1. There is also a listing for Dotnet 1.1 device update 4. I've tried it with AV disabled with no luck. I'll try in safe mode the next time I'm able to schedule a reboot - within the next few days, I hope. Thanks for your help. :) "Merv Porter" <mwport@no_spam_hotmail.com> wrote in message news:OO53h8WaKHA.2160@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl... > In Add/Remove Programs, what versions of .Net do you have installed? > > You might also try disabling any 3rd party apps (like antivirus software) > before you run the BPA. > > And/or maybe try rebooting into in Safe Mode and running the BPA. > > -- > Merv Porter [SBS-MVP] > ============================ > > "Chuck" <ceo@gmx.us> wrote in message > news:#I5dEpWaKHA.1596@TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... >> Unfortunately, there is no entry in any of the event logs when this error >> is encountered. >> >> The on screen error appears within a second or two of launching the BPA >> application. >> >> >> "Merv Porter" <mwport@no_spam_hotmail.com> wrote in message >> news:eTBbr%23VaKHA.5572@TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... >>> In the Application Event Log, can you post the text of the error that's >>> associated with this event. >>> >>> -- >>> Merv Porter [SBS-MVP] >>> ============================ >>> >>> "Chuck" <ceo@gmx.us> wrote in message >>> news:#wZlUaVaKHA.740@TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl... >>>> done that 4x, and also D/L from different sources just to make sure >>>> that the source was not the issue. >>>> >>>> "Merv Porter" <mwport@no_spam_hotmail.com> wrote in message >>>> news:%23Y05EGVaKHA.5572@TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... >>>>> Re-download and then reinstall? >>>>> >>>>> -- >>>>> Merv Porter [SBS-MVP] >>>>> ============================ >>>>> >>>>> "Chuck" <ceo@gmx.us> wrote in message >>>>> news:#MZoweTaKHA.2164@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl... >>>>>> I downloaded and installed the SBS 2003 Best Practices analyzer on a >>>>>> SBS 2003 R2 server and when I launch the program I receive this >>>>>> error: >>>>>> >>>>>> --------------------------- >>>>>> SBSBPA.exe - Common Language Runtime Debugging Services >>>>>> --------------------------- >>>>>> Application has generated an exception that could not be handled. >>>>>> Process id=0x3e0 (992), Thread id=0x20fc (8444). >>>>>> Click OK to terminate the application. >>>>>> Click CANCEL to debug the application. >>>>>> >>>>>> >>>>>> Anyone have any ideas????? >>>>>> >>>> >>>> >> >>

I was able to get the debugger working by installing dot net framework SDK V1.1 and the debugger shows the following: Microsoft (R) Common Language Runtime Test Debugger Shell Version 1.1.4322.573 Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation 1998-2002.
