NS_E_NOTITLES — 0xC00D003E
Diagnosing this result
This result identifies this Windows Media Services boundary: the system cannot find any titles on the server.
Why this boundary matters
This HRESULT is tied to a particular server object and state transition. Preserve the object identity/generation, current and requested states, and the operation or outstanding owner that prevents the transition before restarting the service.
Evidence to collect
| Field | What to preserve |
|---|---|
| Object | Server object/title/session identity and its current generation. |
| State | Current state, requested state and the operation that attempted the transition. |
| Owner | Outstanding reference, session or administrative action that still owns or blocks the object. |
| First result | Earliest component result from the failed state transition before cleanup/retry. |
Decision rule
A restart can erase ownership evidence. Prefer proving which object/reference blocks the transition and then repeat on the same logical object or a deliberately fresh generation.
Focused test
Enumerate the titles visible to the same server object and service account. Verify the configured content source and publishing-point scope before creating or importing titles.
Verification
Repeat the same logical state transition after correcting the identified owner or state. Confirm the object changes state in the expected order; a restart that merely creates a fresh object is only a comparison unless it explains the original ownership failure.

The useful success criterion is not merely the disappearance of this result. Confirm that the same server action completes and that the expected content or object remains available through the next pipeline stage.
