wamp5 server and sbs2003 issues known?

[brendy]

Has anyone had any bother with wamp5 running on a 2003 sbs server premium, while running a sql database?
Basically one of our customers had to get their server rebuilt due to a 3rd party trying to install it onto one of our servers, they came across errors on start up then when they uninstalled it the server stated the sbscore routine, finding a second domain controller and shutting down. Something really strange had happened and the server was possibly seeing itself as a second server and doing the shutdown routine, really wierd.

Well SBS runs several of its services (Remote Web Workplace, Companyweb etc) via IIS which could cause a conflict with the Apache bundled in Wampserver.

SBS shuts itself down, however, when it is not configured as a Domain Controller with Global Catalog and FSMO roles so it might be worth checking those.

I made sure that it was aware of all 5 roles Jonny, Ive travelled down to the bottom or southern ireland to fix this with a rebuild, at the same time ive taken an image of the faulty install to see if it could have been mended. Just a very strange issue and it didnt rear its ugly head to the next day when the server rebooted after updates so the guilty party had disappeared back across the water to their office and are hesitant to come out.
