Support Tip: App-V client service fails with Error 1114: A Dynamic Link Library (DLL) initialization routine failed Posted: 13 Feb 2013 10:40 AM PST Hello everyone, John Behneman here, and today I wanted to tell you about an interesting App-V issue I ran into the other day and what we did to fix it. What happened was that the Microsoft Application Virtualization client service failed to start and generated the following error message: Error 1114 A Dynamic Link Library (DLL) initialization routine failed We also found the following event in the Application event log: Log Name: Application Source: Microsoft-Windows-WMI Date: <date-time> Event ID: 10 Task Category: None Level: Error Keywords: Classic Description: Event filter with query "select * from __instancecreationevent within 60 where targetinstance isa "win32_service" and targetinstance.name="msmpsvc"" could not be reactivated in namespace "//./root/cimv2" because of error 0x80041010. Events cannot be delivered through this filter until the problem is corrected. When we checked the sftlog.txt file we found this: [01/29/2013 19:04:48:773 ABCD CRT] {tid=1980} Initialization of the Application Virtualization file system security failed (status 16D13A0A-0000E016). I began to suspect a WMI issue but running the Winmgmt /verifyrepository command in an elevated command prompt indicated that the WMI repository is consistent. We did some more investigation and found that although the WMI repository was consistent it was missing the CIMWIN32.MOF class objects. To resolve this, we simply ran the following command in an elevated command prompt: mofcomp %systemroot%\system32\wbem\CIMWIN32.MOF As a side note, if the result of the Winmgmt /verifyrepository command indicates that the repository is inconsistent, try running the following command: Winmgmt /salvagerepository Also note that WMI issues are not the only cause of this particular error.
