OWA is not working with “owaauth.dll failed to load”

The first error had an Error ID of 2214 and a description of:

“Could not load all ISAPI filters for site ‘DEFAULT WEB SITE’.  Therefore site startup aborted.”

The second error had an Error ID of 2268 and a description of:

“The HTTP Filter DLL C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\ClientAccess\owa\auth\owaauth.dll failed to load.  The data is the error.”

I have resolv this error by copying the C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\Bin\extrace.dll to c:\windows\system32\

Why Exchange OWA can’t find the file in orginal place i can’t answher? But now OWA is working again

    Thanks for your post.  This resolve my problem exactly.  Just like you what is the relationship of the file extrace.dll to loading owaauth.dll?  Any clue?
