Event ID: 6398 6482 7076 SharePoint memory is corrupt.


Event ID: 6398 6482 7076
Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.


I read a lot of posts saying this was caused by SharePoint and fixed with SP1, and/or an issues with .net 2.0 fixed with .net 2.1. Both are incorrect for my scenario; my servers were completely up to date and all of a sudden I started getting these errors.
I also read that restarting the Services Timer would resolve the issue. All of these are incorrect. The issue is caused by IIS (Adsiis.dll & Wadsiis.dll) and >2 AD users trying to access the same process. None of my dev machines have exhibited these errors because none use AD accounts.

    Thank you for the post. My eventlog was filled with described errors, and your hint to MS KB solved the issue.

    Hi Ray & Justin,
    Thanks so much for sharing the information. I am bit confused about whether I should install the hotfix or not. Because I am going to do it in Production server. There is always a risk involved in it. What do you people suggest?

    well since the hotfix fixes a bug in IIS your only risk is down time while u restart... so as long as your server can restart u're good to go.
