Yesterday we had a hardware failure (Disk Controller) on our SQL Server 2000 ENT edition (sp4) with replication.


I was able to take a set of Full backups and script my publication beofre they took the server down. they rebuilt the Server on different hardware with the same IP address and Server name. I then reinstalled my Named Instance and recovered system databases, distribution database and then my user Database with replication. everything seemed fine.



last night, a couple of jobs that use sp_smtp_sendmail failed with this error:


DTSStep_DTSExecuteSQLTask_2, Error = -2147217900 (80040E14) Error string: Cannot load the DLL xpsmtp80.dll, or one of the DLLs i... Process Exit Code 2. The step failed.


I googled it and I found that it may have something to do with DLLs not registered properly. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Check your hardware guys if they have installed SMTP or not?
