exchange 2003 canât start
The exchange server was frozen yesterday. So I forced shutdown the exchange server. Then IIS service didn’t start. Exchange 2003 couldn't start either.
Do you meet this kind of problem?

What is the status now? IIS services still do not start after reboot? What is teh error you get when you try to start IIS services? Post any errors from event log.

I find one case about it.
If you force shutdown server, metabase.xml won’t be saved properly.
You can try this way. Renaming
metabase.xml as metabase.xml.old in C:\WINDOWS\system32\inetsrv directory.
Copied the one from C:\WINDOWS\system32\inetsrv\History
folder
