Problem

On a Windows Master or Media server, the Private Branch Exchange (PBX) service does not start. It may have previously been working, but now the PBX service fails to start with an Error 1053 shown in System Event logs.

Error Message

Unable to start Private Branch Exchange service: Error 1053

Solution

EMM and other services will not start if PBX is not running.

Check the Server's environment variables.
In some cases, the pathing may be corrupted (ex.  "C:|Program Files\Veritas\NetBackup\" instead of "C:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackup\"

Change the "|" in the path to a "\" to resolve the issue.
