When running a recovery setup for 2007 (on Windows 2008 Server STD, 64-bit), I get the error "You must perform disaster recovery using the same version of Exchange as the last installed version. The current installed version is '8.1.240.6', the last installed version was '8.2.176.2'." This copy of Exchange is the one I installed on this server, though, at one time, there was a copy of Exchange 2007 installed on a 64-bit 2003 server, which was removed. I have searched high and low for that disk, but it seems to have walked away. Is there anything I can do short of doing a fresh install?
I am also facing another problem, but I have yet to research it thoroughly, and it is not really proper fodder for this list other than obliquely. I had to reinstall the server, but Microsoft's backup is not recognizing the previous backup files on a removable disk. Fortunately, I hope, I saved the stores and logs to another location before starting this project. Would I be able to use these as if they were a backup being restored? \\Steve// --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist
