Following a recent reboot, the TMG Firewall service has started to crash shortly after startup, reporting Service Control Manager Event 7024 in the System event log, and at the same time, Microsoft Forefront TMG Firewall event 14001 in the Application event log.
The service crashes every time.
The Event log messages say
- Log: System
- Source: Service Control Manager
- Event ID: 7204
- Message: The Microsoft Forefront TMG Firewall service terminate with service-specific error %%213001
- Log: Application
- Source: Microsoft Forefront TMG Firewall
- Event ID: 14001
- Message: Firewall Service failed to initialize. Previous log entries might help determine the proper action
The only other event logged is a Service Control Manager 7036 (Service entered the stopped state) for the TMG Firewall service, logged at the same time as the 7024. There's nothing else being logged at all.
Anyone have any ideas as to why it's crashing? Or how I get some more detail about what it's up to during service initialisation? I can't find any reference to the %%213001 error code. is there a lookup for those, or do I need to open a case?
