When you start the Microsoft Exchange System Attendant, you may receive the
following error message:
Could not start the Microsoft Exchange System Attendant on computer
\\<SERVERNAME>
Error 1068: The dependency service or group failed to start.
CAUSE
This behavior occurs if one of the services that the System Attendant
depends on cannot be started.
WORKAROUND
On computers that are running Microsoft Windows NT 4.0, you can verify in Registry Editor that all the dependency services listed
under the following key have started:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeSA\DependonService
On computers that are running Microsoft Windows 2000, to check what services another service is dependent on:
- On the Start menu, point to Programs, point to Administrative Tools, and then click Services.
- Right-click the service, and then click the Dependencies tab.
This tab lists not only what sevices this service is dependent on, but also what services are dependent on this one.
