COM+ : 8000FFFF - Catastrophic Failure

On a windows 2003 server, when we open Component services MMC --> complus Applications, we get the following error :

 

Catalog error: An error occured while processing the last operations

error code 8000FFFF - Catastrophic Failure

the event log may contain additional troubleshoooting information

 

The system was very sluggish and slow in responding.

 

we were not able to rebuild the COM+ catalog from Add/Remove windows components setup. It failed with the error :

 

Com+ setup error

Sub compoment com+ raised an exceptipn while processing the

OC_COMPLETE_INSTALLATION setup message

d:\nt\com\complus\src\complussetup\compluscore.cpp

(line 563) error code = 0x80040206

an unexpected internal error was deteted

the complus event classes could not be registered

 

Application Log :

 

EVENT SYSTEM

EVENT id 4610

THE COM+ EVENT SERVICE detected a bad return code during its internal processing

HResult was 80040154

from line 44 of d:\nt\com\complus\src\evnets\tier1\eventsystemobj.cpp

 

 

Provided full permissions to Authenticated users on the

“HKeyClassesRoot [HKCR]\CLSID” registry key.

Note : Try giving read permissions to Authenticated Users first. It might work too.

After this the COM+ setup completed successfully.

    Should I be concerned or considering fixing this code error or is it just a message, stating that it simply did not work?

    Error code 8000ffff is a bit generic in nature. In this case it indicates that for some reason we are not able to access the COM+ catalog. So, the error message COM+ 8000ffff does give you some insight into the problem and you would like to focus on all the things that could cause this error.
