Is there any way to rectify this ? While clciking theApplication tab i get error like this ... Server Error In /_admin application Application Thanks In Advance Varathan GS

Hi V, You’re in luck its really simple to remove and reprovision Central Administration and it doesnt affect your users or ShareServices? 1. On the server where you want to host Central Administration run > psconfig.exe -cmd adminvs –unprovision > this will remove Central Administration 2. Next run > psconfig.exe -cmd adminvs -provision -port 6000 -windowsauthprovider onlyusentlm > to provision Central Administration Note you can change the port to be whatver port you would like. Now Central Administration is configured properly -IvanIvan Sanders My LinkedIn Profile, My Blog, @iasanders.

Ok Thanks a lot Ivan...I will check it and inform u . Thanks In AdvanceVarathan GS

Hi, Did you reset the central adminapp pool id directly in IIS? You should not do it in IIS. Run this: stsadm -o updatefarmcredentials -userlogin DomainName\UserName -password NewPassword Here is more info: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/934838 You set your Database recovery to full. Have you checked the hard drive space on the SQL server? Have you tried a reboot of the SQL server? Often this error is an indication of a connection problem. Is the database engine configured to accept remote connections. Have you looked at the SharePoint ULS logs does anything show in logs? I wish you every success in your important work.
