Check that you have applied SP2 for Office 2007. We had the same issue here
(email body being blank) and SP2 helped.

Re: Exchange 2010 OAB issue

2010-09-09 Thread Cameron
If I'm looking in the right place Org Config/Mailbox/OAB
I show two items there 1. Default Offline Address List not set as default
and 2. OAB set as default both with a distribution method of Public
Folders. Checking Distribution shows all 3 items checked. If I run a manual
update from there is tells me completed sucessfully.  One thing I noticed is
that there are two directories under ///ExchangeOAB/ and they have a
different number of LZX files in them I have NO idea if this is normal or
not.

it's brutal being a n00b with Ex2010 and not being the person to do the
install/setup

How many custom views do you have?

By default, Exchange only has 11 that it stores per mailbox. If you have
more than that, Exchange will have to rebuild the view each time you
visit another folder. (Don't ask me how they came up with that number, I
don't know.)

So...you either change the number of views that Exchange stores per
mailbox (it's a registry parameter for MsExchangeIS, I'd have to look it
up [i.e., Google it - which you can do too! :-)]) - which has both a
processor overhead and a disk space overhead, reduce the number of items
in the folders, or  uh, I forgot. Oh yeah. Get rid of some custom
views.

Anyone else see an issue with Outlook 2007 where if you click on a folder it 
can take up to 30 seconds for the pane to populate with the emails?  Not just 
the inbox, but when you open folders in a personal folder as well?
Also seeing occasions where if you try to open an email, sometimes it comes up

 Yeah, you want to upgrade the 97-2002 PSTs.
 
 5400 RPM is slow; even for desktops.
 
 But the SP2 and 4GB are good.

Re: Exchange 2010 OAB issue

2010-09-09 Thread Cameron
I ran the command and see something a bit odd. I'm guessing that it's
because there are 2 OAB's but it looks like there are two of everything
regarding the OAB. Strange thing is that the numbers don't match at all.
OAB Ver 2 - 103
OAB Ver 2 - 6
OAB Ver 3a - 103
OAB Ver 3a - 6
OAB Ver 4 - 66
OAB Ver 4 - 31

I gather that since everyone is running Outlook 2007, I only need to enable
Version 4. When I look at the distribution methods in OAB properties, Web
based is greyed out.

RE: Exchange 2010 OAB issue

2010-09-09 Thread Michael B. Smith
Oh, so this was a 2003 - 2010 migration? You didn't tell us that. :-P

Yes, you can get rid of everything except version 4. And you need to upgrade 
your address lists.

Even though this article says Exchange 2007, it applies to Exchange 2010 as 
well:

http://msexchangeteam.com/archive/2007/01/11/432158.aspx

This also PROBABLY (but not definitely) explains why you have two OABs. They 
got to a place where they need to update the old default OAB and didn't know 
how to upgrade it.

ObligatorySelfPromotion: You really should've hired me to do the upgrade. :)

Re: Exchange 2010 OAB issue

2010-09-09 Thread Cameron
I ran the two commands shown and everything is correct for version 0.1
8.0.535.0

 Yes, you can get rid of everything except version 4. And you need to
 upgrade your address lists.



 Even though this article says Exchange 2007, it applies to Exchange 2010 as
 well:



 http://msexchangeteam.com/archive/2007/01/11/432158.aspx



 This also PROBABLY (but not definitely) explains why you have two OABs.
 “They” got to a place where they need to update the old default OAB and
 didn’t know how to upgrade it.



 ObligatorySelfPromotion: You really should’ve hired me to do the upgrade.

 I ran the command and see something a bit odd. I'm guessing that it's
 because there are 2 OAB's but it looks like there are two of everything
 regarding the OAB. Strange thing is that the numbers don't match at all.

 OAB Ver 2 - 103

 OAB Ver 2 - 6

 OAB Ver 3a - 103

 OAB Ver 3a - 6
 OAB Ver 4 - 66

 OAB Ver 4 - 31



 I gather that since everyone is running Outlook 2007, I only need to enable
 Version 4. When I look at the distribution methods in OAB properties, Web
 based is greyed out.

 Also from Toolbox - Public Folder Management (or

 If I'm looking in the right place Org Config/Mailbox/OAB

 I show two items there 1. Default Offline Address List not set as default
 and 2. OAB set as default both with a distribution method of Public
 Folders. Checking Distribution shows all 3 items checked. If I run a manual
 update from there is tells me completed sucessfully.  One thing I noticed is
 that there are two directories under ///ExchangeOAB/ and they have a
 different number of LZX files in them I have NO idea if this is normal or
 not.

 I *really* despise having to clean up after 'experts'.



 Exchange 2010 (I have not applied SP yet), W2K8r2 (fully patched)

 Using Outlook 2007 SP2, if you try and download the address book, you get
 an error Task t...@test.com reported error (0x8004010F): The operation
 failed. An object cannot be found.



 When I run test-outlookwebservices the only issues I have are relating to
 RPC/HTTPS (which I understand only relates to Outlook Anywhere which we are
 not using). Everything else seems to test fine.



 Thoughts/Suggestions always welcome!

Damaged Folder Views.  Outlook client shows various folders as empty when

however users are not pleased about having to do this repeatedly throughout the 
work day.

OT: Outlook message won't go to PST file

2010-09-09 Thread Bill Songstad
I have a strange situation where I have a single message which I have been
able to copy from one exchange 2003 mailbox to another but it will not be
copied into a PST file.  I can copy other files but not this one.  I have
forwarded it to another user and tried to copy the forwarded message and
received the same error: Cannot move the items.  The item cannot be moved.
It was either already moved or deleted, or access was denied.

The original message was in the journal mailbox,and as I do each month, i
was peeling off the previous month's journal items using the export feature
of Outlook 2007.  I was able to successfully export thousands of items
before and after this item. But no matter how I try to export it, it gives
me the error.

I have tried exporting with the full mailbox;  Copying to a new PST file;
Move to a new PST file; forward and move the forwarded item to a new PST.
I've tried reusing PSTs, new PSTs.  Nothing will get that item into PST.  It
does move fine between folders in the same mailbox or even into other
mailboxes.

The orginal email was only 400Kb.  But it did have numerous tiny graphics in
it.  I can open and read it just fine.  It was sent originally from a
Mac.  I have had no other problems with the mac's emails though.

Anybody have any ideas how I can get this stinking email into my archival
PST?

Thanks,

Bill

   Shot in the dark: I've seen various extremely weird errors from
Outlook/Exchange when a rich-text or HTML message had a bogus link in
it.  I think it's cause by MS Office doing something, and then not
updating the something properly.  Changing the format of the message
to plain text would clear all links and thus fix it.  You can test
this by making a copy of the message and fiddling with that.

move fine between folders in the same mailbox or even into other mailboxes.

The orginal email was only 400Kb.  But it did have numerous tiny graphics in 
it.  I can open and read it just fine.  It was sent originally from a Mac.  I 
have had no other problems with the mac's emails though.

Anybody have any ideas how I can get this stinking email into my archival PST?

Thanks,

Bill

Re: OT: Outlook message won't go to PST file

2010-09-09 Thread Bill Songstad
Okay, converting the message to plain text worked, but it was so HTML heavy,
that it wasn't really useful that way.

I revisited the .msg file option and had success this time.  Simply saving
the journal message with the original message still attached as a msg file
did not work, but saving just the journalled attachment as a msg file did.
Unfortunately for posterity, I had already converted my original from HTML
to Rich text before saving the attachment, so I don't know if I
actually needed to convert it to rich text for it to work.

Oh well.  I'm done beating my head on this one.

Thanks guys,

Bill

OT : Dell OEM Partition and Windows Server Backup

2010-09-09 Thread Steve Hart

Ugh.

Problem #65,234 in my Exchange 2007 server installation. Why is it always 
difficult?

I've got my server installed and setup, but we haven't migrated any data yet. 
I'm attempting to run a backup using Windows Server Backup. It's erroring out 
with a 2155348129. Google tells me it's a problem with a Dell Utility partition 
that's marked active and sure enough, I have one of those.

There are a couple of fixes online, listed here. Both involve changing the 
active partition to the system drive, which will in all likelihood create an 
unbootable system. Then they list recovery tools to fix the boot process.

I guess I have a couple of questions. First, fully off-topic, has anyone run 
into this issue and are there unforeseen nightmares? Is there an easier fix?

Second, is this a safe procedure on an (currently) unused Exchange Server? 
Given this mess, would you uninstall and start over or run one of these fixes?


The proposed fixes (thanks to Google) (I notice the second solution is SBS. I 
have regular 2008):

Change the active partition to C and try to reboot. If the server is 
unbootable, do this:
1. Insert the Windows Server 2008 DVD.
2. Restart the computer.
3. Use the Windows Server 2008 DVD to start the computer.
4. Choose the desired language and keyboard settings, and then click Next.
5. Click the Repair Your Computer link on the bottom left of the screen.
6. Open the Command Prompt and run the command copy 
c:\windows\boot\PCAT\bootmgr c:\bootmgr (without quotes) and press Enter.
7. Run the command attrib +h +s c:\bootmgr (without quotes) and press Enter.
8. Run the command bootrec /fixboot (without quotes) and press Enter.
9. Run the command bootrec /rebuildbcd (without quotes) and press Enter. 
Choose Y to the prompt to add the installation to the boot list.
10. Restart the computer.


And


Step 1
- Mark the Windows Partition as active in Disk Manager
- Backup works fine now (and that makes me feel better about having an 
unbootable server now!)
Step 2
- Let's fix the boot configuration:
- Boot from SBS 2008 install DVD, click next, next, install now until the point 
where you are asked for the product key
- Press Shift-F10 to get command prompt
- Let's 'unhide' the evil OEM partition:
- type Diskpart and hit enter
- type 'list volume'
- see the volume that is about 63MB in size and FAT partitioned? - that's the 
number we need, in my case it was '2'
- type 'select volume 2'
- type 'assign' to assign a drive letter
- type 'list volume' to see which drive letter was assigned - in my case it was 
F:
- type 'exit' to exit diskpart
- unhide bootmgr file and bcd directory by typing:
'attrib -h -s f:\boot\bcd' and 'attrib -h -s f:\bootmgr'
- copy bootmgr and boot dir over from f:\ to c:\:
- type 'robocopy f:\boot\ c:\boot\' ('xcopy' or 'copy' might work too, i just 
like robocopy better)
- type 'copy f:\bootmgr c:\bootmgr
Now let's fix the boot configuration using the SBS 2008 DVD
- run 'x:\sources\recovery\startrep.exe' - follow the wizard
- reboot when the wizard is finished and everything should be fine!




Thanks in advance!

Steve

The proposed fixes (thanks to Google) (I notice the second solution is SBS. I 
have regular 2008):

Change the active partition to C and try to reboot. If the server is 
unbootable, do this:
1. Insert the Windows Server 2008 DVD.
2. Restart the computer.
3. Use the Windows Server 2008 DVD to start the computer.
4. Choose the desired language and keyboard settings, and then click Next.
5. Click the Repair Your Computer link on the bottom left of the screen.
6. Open the Command Prompt and run the command copy 
c:\windows\boot\PCAT\bootmgr c:\bootmgr (without quotes) and press Enter.
7. Run the command attrib +h +s c:\bootmgr (without quotes) and press Enter.
8. Run the command bootrec /fixboot (without quotes) and press Enter.
9. Run the command bootrec /rebuildbcd (without quotes) and press Enter. 
Choose Y to the prompt to add the installation to the boot list.
10. Restart the computer.


And


Step 1
- Mark the Windows Partition as active in Disk Manager
- Backup works fine now (and that makes me feel better about having an 
unbootable server now!)
Step 2
- Let's fix the boot configuration:
- Boot from SBS 2008 install DVD, click next, next, install now until the point 
where you are asked for the product key
- Press Shift-F10 to get command prompt
- Let's 'unhide' the evil OEM partition:
- type Diskpart and hit enter
- type 'list volume'
- see the volume that is about 63MB in size and FAT partitioned? - that's the 
number we need, in my case it was '2'
- type 'select volume 2'
- type 'assign' to assign a drive letter
- type 'list volume' to see which drive letter was assigned - in my case it was 
F:
- type 'exit' to exit diskpart
- unhide bootmgr file and bcd directory by typing:
'attrib -h -s f:\boot\bcd' and 'attrib -h -s f:\bootmgr'
- copy bootmgr and boot dir over from f:\ to c:\:
- type 'robocopy f:\boot\ c:\boot\' ('xcopy' or 'copy' might work too, i just 
like robocopy better)
- type 'copy f:\bootmgr c:\bootmgr
Now let's fix the boot configuration using the SBS 2008 DVD
- run 'x:\sources\recovery\startrep.exe' - follow the wizard
- reboot when the wizard is finished and everything should be fine!




Thanks in advance!
