DHCP Database errors

[danjwalker]

I have loads of DHCP database errors on my win 2k3 SP1 server. I seem to have event id 1014 and 1010 an awful lot. It does this after a system restart. I also have IIS issues where 2 of the websites will not start up. That is a different story.

Is there any way to delete a DHCP database and create a new one? Do I just delete the scope and make a new one? If so, I already did that and it did not fix my errors. All error descriptions says that the necessary DLL files are not there to provide a description for the errors. I looked them up on eventid.net and they all point to database errors.

Any ideas for fixing??

Off the top of my head, I dont know the clear answer, but here is the path to the DHCP information in the registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DHCPServer\Configuration

Also, try the netsh commands for options.

Start with:

c:\netsh dhcp


I know older stuff like 2000 had a db like dhcp.mdb in the win\system32\dhcp directory.
