  • Artykuł

I started getting the OWSTimer exception errors after installing SharePoint Server 2010 Service Pack 1.

Exception

An unhandled exception ('System.ServiceModel.EndpointNotFoundException') occurred in OWSTIMER.EXE [6116].

Solution

To resolve the exception, you need to start the Forefront Identity Manager service:

  • Launch the Services Management Console from the Start menu under Administrative Tools.

  • Look for the Forefront Identity Manager service, right click it and select Start from the context menu.

    Yes, this was a very annoying message that got popped up every 30 secs. Relieved to have resolved it by restarting FIM service
