We recently installed Visual SourceSafe on a server which was built about a week ago. We were migrating our SourceSafe database from a server that failed and needed a rebuild. The following error was recorded in the event log. The RPC service is running. I have disabled antivirus and still received the same result.
Event Type: Error
Event Source: Service Control Manager
Event Category: None
Event ID: 7000
Date: 3/6/2007
Time: 5:26:03 PM
User: N/A
Computer: BLSRV002
Description:
The Visual SourceSafe LAN Service service failed to start due to the following error:
Visual SourceSafe LAN Service is not a valid Win32 application.
I also ran Alin Constantin's SSServiceTest.exe and receive an error that says:
SSServiceTest: Connecting to VSS service on blsrv002 ...
Ping function failed with error 000006d9.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mario
