The Message Queuing service cannot start because the log file cannot be recovered.
The Message Queuing service cannot start. The log file cannot be recovered.
The MSMQ Service needs access permissions on the checkpoint and log files. If the service has permissions and you receive this error, then the file is probably corrupt. To start the MSMQ Service without losing consistency, you must correct or recover corrupted checkpoint and log files.
Correct or recover corrupt log and checkpoint files
To perform this procedure, you must have membership in Administrators, or you must have been delegated the appropriate authority.
To correct or recover corrupted checkpoint and log files:
Caution: Incorrectly editing the registry might severely damage your system. Before making changes to the registry, you should back up any valued data.
To start the service for emergency use (with a potential loss of data consistency), navigate to the %windir%\System32\msmq\storage folder, and then delete the following files: QMLog, MQTrans.lg1, MQTrans.lg2, MQInSeqs.lg1, MQInSeqs.lg2.
Open Registry Editor. To open Registry Editor, click Start. In the search box, type regedit, and then press ENTER.
Create the DWORD registry entry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSMQ\Parameters\LogDataCreated, and then set to a value of 0.
If you continue to get this error, note any details in the event message, and then contact Microsoft Customer Service and Support (CSS). For information about how to contact CSS, see Enterprise Support ( http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=52267).
