Cryptography service won't start on XP SP2
I'm having problems downloading and installing the latest (Aug 9 2005) set of
security updates from Microsoft. I looked into one of them and saw that the Cryptography service wasn't running. It is set to start automatically but isn't. I tried to manually start it and get an error: 193-0xc1. I've tried deleting the CatRoot2 directory, rebooting and starting Cryptography, and unregistering and reregistering a set of related DLLs per information I found on the net. Nothing is getting Cryptography service to start up. I never had problems with the monthly updates in the past. The only other unusual situtation recently is that I had to do a Windows Repair Install after having problems caused by bad disk blocks. After doing the disk repair and the Repair install I cloned the problem disk onto a new drive and that's what I'm running from. Everything else works OK to my knowledge. Any suggestions? I've appended the update log that first let me know that Cryptography wasn't running, though I don't see that it offers any other clues. thanks, Larry ----------- [KB899591.log] 0.844: ================================================== ============================== 0.844: 2005/08/10 19:28:50.000 (local) 0.844: C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\Download\S-1-5-18\ff9844a0f0feaa5597f75dcffabb8d43\update\update. exe (version 6.1.22.4) 0.844: Hotfix started with following command line: /si /ParentInfo:b20ffbf19ff8084699926f620e88d52a 901.078: PrepareToTrustInfFile: MySetupCopyOEMInf failed: 0x426 901.078: IsInfFileTrusted: PrepareToTrustInfFile Failed: 0x426 901.110: InstallInfCatalogFile: Installing c:\windows\softwaredistribution\download\s-1-5-18\ff9844a0f0feaa5597f75dcffabb8d43\update\KB89959 1.cat as _000000_.cat... 901.110: VerifySize: Unable to verify size: Source = NULL: c:\windows\_000000_.cat 901.141: InstallCatalogFile: InstallCatalog failed for c:\windows\_000000_.cat; error=0x00000426. 901.141: InstallInfCatalogFile: Installation failed; error=0x00000002. 901.141: UdpStopService: ControlService failed :0x426 901.141: IsInfFileTrusted: ValidateSingleFileSignature Failed: STR_FAILED_INF_INTEGRITY 901.157: KB899591 Setup encountered an error: Setup could not verify the integrity of the file Update.inf.

I found the Event Viewer in the Computer Managment console. There was an
error (many of them) that had this message: "The Cryptographic Services service terminated with the following error:Cryptographic Services is not a valid Win32 application." What can cause this? How do I fix it? Help! thanks, Larry "ozarkcanoer" wrote: I'm having problems downloading and installing the latest (Aug 9 2005) set of security updates from Microsoft.

I've tried to correct this problem by copying copies of these DLLs from
another XP SP2 system into the Windows\System32 directory on the system with the problem. I did this while in the XP Recovery Console. Doesn't fix the problem. I still get the error saying that Cryptographic Services is not a valid Win32 application. On the system I took the files from, Cryptographic services is running fine. I don't understand how it can't be a valid Win32 application. Something is going on I definitely don't understand. "ozarkcanoer" wrote: I found the Event Viewer in the Computer Managment console.

Problem was resolved by doing a repair install with xpsp1a and then upgrading
to sp2 and then letting system download and install all subsequent updates/patches. Cryptographic service problem is gone.
