When you try to start the Microsoft Exchange Message Transfer Agent (MTA) service, an error message sometimes appears on your computer screen: The Microsoft Exchange Message Transfer Agent service cannot be started on ServerName.
Exchange Server manages a lot of applications, and even after so many security offerings, it still throws errors. Incorrect custom commands and operations also lead to error messages. Therefore, it is necessary to know the cause of the following errors so that they can be corrected. Sometimes the Microsoft Exchange Message Transfer Agent (MTA) displays error messages.
Failed to start Microsoft Exchange MTA solution on ServerName. 2140: Error An inherent Windows NT error has occurred.
MTA errors when replacing the server can be corrected by using the MTAcheck.exe utility. The Database Reliability Checker checks for corrupted files or most inconsistencies in the database. As with ESEutil, using such a utility could potentially cause other problems if the damage was severe. When using MTAcheck.exe, the error message “The database also contains critical errors, cannot be fixed automatically” appears. Follow these steps to resolve the Exchange Server error and recover files.

If the repository MTA does not close properly while restoring results, basic error messages are displayed
The root cause of the above errors is an invalid path to the MTA database in the Windows registry. Fixes / Solutions for MTA Database Error
- Open a run window, type regedit and press Enter.
- A registry editor window will open, now look at the path to the MTA database.
- Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESystemCurrentControlSetServicesMSExchangeMTAParameters MTA Database Path
- Now open a registry entry and navigate to the desired MTA location database in the Data Value field.
- Now find HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESystemCurrentControlSetServicesMSExchangeMTAParametersMTA-Execution-Directory
- Open the found entry and check the location of the MTA execution directory in the value data field.
- Close the registry editor and restart the staging server.
Exchange Server error 2140 does not appear and the entire source path is set for the MTA. This helps prevent problems with Exchange Server, both internal and external. Can you also use a fallback Exchange server to fight these misguided guys?
