DOCUMENT:Q235999 20-MAY-2002 [winnt] TITLE :Savedump Does Not Write Event Log Message with Event ID 1000 PRODUCT :Microsoft Windows NT PROD/VER:winnt:4.0 SP5 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS:kbWinNT4sp6fix ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Windows NT Server version 4.0, Terminal Server Edition - Microsoft Windows NT Server version 4.0 SP5 - Microsoft Windows NT Workstation version 4.0 SP5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== When there is not enough free disk space to write a dump file, Savedump.exe does not write the following entry to the event log: Event ID: 1000 Source: Save Dump Description: The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck. The bugcheck was: 0xdeaddead (0x00000000, 0x00000000, 0x00000000, 0x00000000). Microsoft Windows NT [v15.1381]. A full dump was not saved. CAUSE ===== This behavior occurs because remote procedure call (RPC) returns an unanticipated error message when Savedump.exe attempts to get a handle to the registry (RegisterEventSource). RPC returns RPC_S_UNKNOWN_IF (The interface is unknown. Error code 1717), but Savedump.exe checks only for a return code of RPC_S_SERVER_UNAVAILABLE (The RPC server is unavailable. Error code 1722). The return error code 1717 is ignored.
