I have a bunch of Exch 2003 server in the same group and I need to delete one that was removed without an install. When I try and delete the server I get a: "Setup encountered an error while checking prerequisites for the component "Microsoft Exchange Server":0X80072030 (8240): There is no such object on the server." Facility: Exchange System Manager ID no: c103fc97 Exchange System Manager The Exchange log show the 8240 related to: ScPRQ_ServerIsNotHomeServerForPostmasterOfNonEmptyOrg (f:\tisp2\admin\src\udoc\excommon\prereq.cxx:2981) Error c0de 0X80072030 (8240). There is no such object on the server. CCompServer:cCheckEVSPrerequisites (f:\tisp2\admin\src\udoc\excommon\prereq.cxx:2981) Error c0de 0X80072030 (8240). There is no such object on the server. Any idea what this means and how to fix it?

Hi, You can remove the server using ldp or adsiedit: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;278918 Leif

The Link took me to Exch 5.5 and 2000 but had a 2003 Link. I followed the procedure at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/833396and it worked. Thanks for the direction. The procedure was: 1. Click Start, point to Programs, point to Windows 2000 Support Tools, point to Tools, and then click ADSI Edit. 2. Expand each of the following items: Configuration ContainerCN=Configuration, DC=Domain_Name,DC=comCN=ServicesCN=Microsoft Exchange CN=Your_Organization_NameCN=Administrative GroupsCN=Your_Administrative_Group_Name_Or_Exchange5.5_Site_NameCN=ServersNote In this procedure, Domain_Name is a placeholder for the name of your domain, Your_Organization_Name is a placeholder for the name of your organization, and Your_Administrative_Group_Name_Or_Exchange5.5_Site_Name is a placeholder for the name of your administrative group or Exchange 5.5 site. 3. Right-click the Exchange 2003 server object, and then click Delete. 4. Click Yes in every adsiedit dialog box that prompts you to confirm the deletion.
