Applies To: Windows SharePoint Services 3.0

 

Error

Several features of Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 rely on scheduled background processes called timer jobs. Administrators can configure and schedule timer jobs by using Central Administration. When you use the Services on Server page in Central Administration to start or stop a service, a timer job is used to perform this action.

To improve the performance of Windows SharePoint Services 3.0, much of the data in the configuration database is kept in a local file-system cache, called the configuration data cache. Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 uses the timer service to keep this cache synchronized with the configuration database. Alternate access mapping is a feature of Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 that enables administrators to configure a load-balanced system by mapping an incoming URL to alternate URLs used by Windows SharePoint Services. Windows SharePoint Services enables administrators to create new SharePoint sites. Site owners and (depending on the site settings) site visitors can also create subsites.

Reprovision the service instance

On the specified server, re-provision the service by using the Psconfig command. For more information about this command-line operation, see Command-line reference for the SharePoint Products and Technologies Configuration Wizard (Windows SharePoint Services).

You must be a member of the SharePoint Administrators group to perform this action.

To reprovision Central Administration by using the Psconfig command-line tool

  1. On the affected server, navigate to the Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\BIN directory.

  2. Open the command line and type the following: psconfig -cmd adminvs -unprovision

  3. This will unprovision the service instance.

  4. Open the command line and type the following: psconfig -cmd adminvs -provision -port <port number> -windowsauthprovider onlyusentlm

  5. This will reprovision the service instance. The administration service should now work.

If the SharePoint Administration Service was restarted, run the Stsadm command stsadm -o execadmsvcjobs to ensure all tasks that required the administration service have been completed.

You must be a member of the SharePoint Administrators group to perform this task.
