I for the life of me can not figure this out
The setup:
Windows Server 2008 R2 Foundation
2 Users set up in Active Directory
Is the PDC and only Domain Controller on the network
There are no trusts, this is a single domain very simple setup
I'm getting both the Forest Trust Check and Root Domain Check license compliance check errors. This is causing my server to shut down every 3 days.
Root domain check did not pass because error 0x80005000 occurred in function f1981 [AYLN].
An invalid directory pathname was passed
The Forest Trust Check in the Licensing component did not pass because error 0x80005000 occurred in function fe2 [PHQG].
An invalid directory pathname was passed
Make sure that each primary domain controller in your Active Directory forest can be contacted and the following services are running on it: Active Directory Domain Services (NTDS), DNS Server (DNS) and Kerberos Key Distribution Center (KDC). This server will
be automatically shut down if the issue is not corrected.
I am well aware of the Foundation compliances. This is the root of the domain, there are not more than 15 users. So the only other thing that I have been reading while researching is to check DNS. DNS is running with proper forwards setup. I can ping the server from its self, in the IP Configuration for the server the DNS server is set to the local IP of the server as the primary and 127.0.0.1 as secondary. Users can log into the domain and all of that appears to be running fine. NSLOOKUP can find the server and proper IP addresses from the server.
I am really at a loss here and my googling hasn't brought up anything promising to try. Anyone have any suggestions or have seen this issue before?
Thank you!
