Cannot start MS Exchange services. Getting error 2140. Posible cause: restoration of the public folders off of backup. Running Exchange 5.5 w/ SP 3. If any can help would be much appreciated.

Thankyou for your time.

You didn't state what the specific error was, but I have ran into this error twice. Here are the article numbers to reference from Microsoft's web site.

If these don't help, then specify the error message.

The exact error out of the services menu:
Could not start the MS Exchange Event Service service on \\EXCHANGESERVER.

All other services are running just not the one listed above. Looked in event viewer:
An unexpected MAPI error occurred. Error returned was [0x80004005]
