JSI Tip 7526. The Application event log records Event IDs 1003 and 1015 every time you restart Windows Server 2003?

When you inspect the Application event log after restarting Windows Server 2003, the following events appear:

Event Type: Warning
Event Source: EvntAgnt
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1003
Date: <date>
Time: <time>
User: N/A
Computer: <ServerName>
Description: TraceFileName parameter not located in registry; Default trace file used is .

Event Type: Warning
Event Source: EvntAgnt
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1015
Date: <date>
Time: <time>
User: N/A
Computer: <ServerName>
Description: TraceLevel parameter not located in registry; Default trace level used is 32.

If you installed the SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) service, but did NOT configure the Evntagnt.dll file for debug tracing, these two warning events will be logged.

To fix the problem, see:

NOTE: You can use Services.msc to set the Startup type of the SNMP service to Disabled if you don't have time to configure the service.
