Solution ID: P4716
FACT(s) (Environment):
Windows NT 32 Intel/Windows 2000
SYMPTOM(s):
Database crashes at startup
Error incrementing semaphore, current value = <number>, error = <number> (6270)
Error incrementing semaphore, current value = 0 error = 298 (6270)
Unable to clear semaphore. (1715)
CAUSE:
The Event Viewer is not able to release the semaphores assigned to it. Too many messages are being sent to the Event Viewer log. On Windows, Error 298 means "too many posts."
FIX:
To limit the number of posts being made to the Event Viewer, set EVTLEVEL the environment variable to none or brief. Value can be set to "none", "brief" or "normal". The values of EVTLEVEL must be written in lowercase.
