MadGutts Posted September 2, 2004 Share Posted September 2, 2004 Is the new mail sever working 100%?and what connectors are installed on the new server?As long as the new server is working 100%, and its not pointing to the other mail server then the exchange should be alright. If you shut down the other server, does the mail still work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lebanese_007 Posted September 2, 2004 Author Share Posted September 2, 2004 Thanks alot MADGutts for replyingHow would i know if the new server is pointing to the old server???About shutting the old one off, i thought about it, but alot of people use it... so i was leaving this option to the last option.The new server is working fine... sends and recieves internalling and externallythere is one issue that when i hit send/recieve, it keeps giving me this error "! Task 'Microsoft Exchange Server' reported error (0x8004010F)' : 'The operation failed. An object could not be found.' "But other than that, it works fine.Thanks in advance-Lebanese_007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marsden Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 The problem is with the offline address book configuration on your Microsoft Exchange Server.If the Exchange 2000 Server computer that is responsible for generating the offline address list is uninstalled and there is no replica of the Oab folder, the server component that generates the offline Address Book (OABGen) may not work.To create new site folders, you must use the Guidgen.exe utility. This utility is available in the in the Support\Utils\I386 folder on the Exchange 2000 Server CD. If you do not have access to this utility, download the Guidgen.exe utility from MS Support. The version available for download, works with either Exch 2000 or Exch 2003. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
