Error Event ID 580
  • Private Private October 2011

    I have been getting this for while and can't figure out why? I have searched through the help file and the knowledge base but didn't fin anything helpful. I have stopped getting any other email notifications to my Blackberry. (even though they go to my Gmail)

    EVENT # 5434
    EVENT LOG Application
    EVENT TYPE Error
    OPCODE Info
    SOURCE EventSentry
    EVENT ID 580
    COMPUTERNAME SAGETV-SERVER
    DATE / TIME 10/19/2011 9:51:21 PM
    MESSAGE Action "Desktop" was unable to create a mailslot for host "." due to error: The system cannot find the file specified.

    You are getting error because you are using the "Desktop" action, which displays a window on the desktop, however the management console (which displays the window) is not active. This error message is not related to email connectivity errors, a different error would be raised in that case.

    Are you have email issues as well? If EventSentry can't send emails, it will log a similar event in the application event log.

    Are you using the Desktop action?

    As of 10/2 Event ID 580 has occurred 7 times. I am using the "Desktop" action. When I click on the "test" button I get a pop up message saying its working correctly. But I'm still puzzled as to why I'm getting the error message or how to fix...

    Do you have the Management Console running on that system at the time the 580 event occurs?

    As Ingmar had mentioned previously the Management Console needs to be running on that system for the desktop action to operate.

    Yes I have the management console on the system where I'm getting the 580 errors. I have found they seem to happen after a reboot...
