Everyone that is connected to this exchange is receiving an error when they attempt to share a calendar in outlook 2010. We are using Exchange 2010 and Outlook 2010. The error reads: Error while preparing to send sharing message.
Any ideas on a reason why this would be happening?
We have exchange 2010 SP3 servers in our environment and would like to upgrade our DC's to windows 2012R2, would this be an issue? and if it is, is there a plan to fix it via a future rollup pack / SP?
Hi Guys and Gals,
So, this behaviour is present on Webmail, Outlook 2010, 2011 and 2013. Hence posting it in the Exchange 2010 forum.
For one particular user (Bob), no one else in a 700+ mailbox estate I'm getting the following behaviour:
Bob cannot be invited to meetings. In so far as they do not show up in his calendar or inbox. He has no delegates. Adding myself as a delegate with get all the invites etc does nothing, no meeting requests appear.
Furthermore, when Bob invites me to a meeting I get it, that works, but he does NOT receive my acceptance.
No rules on any client.
All the meeting requests etc are visible in message tracking!?!!
Event logs on CAS and MB server are clean.
This stinks of a delegate issue (been there with plenty of these as we have insane staff turnover) but there are none!
Any ideas on troubleshooting greatly received as my only option as I can see it is to do a full export, trash the mailbox and then a full import. I'll do that happily once I feel that is my only option.
Thanks in anticipation

Hello guys ,
I have Exchange 2010 SP2 with Two Nodes with DAG and a file share witness on one of the member servers and 2 X cas, 2 X hub, 2X Edge. Small doubt, as we are shifting over Exchange envioronment from one Datacenter to another DC.
We have connectivity between the two Datacenters
Suppose if we will move the one set of servers like one mailbox connected with Local storage, Cas and Hub and edge VMware
what will happen to Witeness server during that time , will that DAG works ..i think it will work ? BUT what will happen if we move the 2nd set of servers and witness server ?
what we are looking for that when the 1st set of servers will be moved it should be opertaional and serve clients but what will happen when we move the another set of server and the Witness server. ???
Should we move the witness server first along with the 1st set of server or what ? Pls suggest the best way so that we should be have the downtime . Thanks
environment: Exchange 2010 sp3/windows 2008 R2 sp1, same site.
Recently, I've issue where some mailboxes becomes disabled after few hours local move request completed. so, when i open 'disconnected view' via mmc, i can see 2 entries for just-migrated mailbox user where one status is for 'soft-deleted' while the 2nd one is 'disabled'. In EMC, the mailbox status is enable and i need to use powershell in EMS to identify the real status. to resolve that, i just need to disable-mailbox and run connect-mailbox again. BUT I don't understand why 'just migrated' mailbox can become disabled ? anyone has better explanation or can guide me to resolve this. thx.
Hi,
We have 2 DAG Exchange 2010 servers. There are times that we need to move the active database between these two servers. Currently, our Exchange is mounted on Server B and I would like to know what was the last server it was mounted to since last maintenance we did? I need somehow a record or history what has always been the active server?
Where do I get that information?
Hi,
I want to migrate the old Room Mailbox (Room 1) Calender Ítems to the newly created Room Mailbox (Room 2) through the Exchange Command lines.
This task can be done with the GUI mode through Outlook as it is given in below articles. I want to perform the same task through command line to reduce manual effort.

Hi,
I've set up ECP and given Help Desk role to a few people to manage others OoO settings.
It's working fine for most of the mailboxes, but not for a few.
And I can't manage them either with Organization Management role.
I can't see any difference between their mailbox object when listing it from powershell get-mailbox.
Is there any setting I'm missing?
I would like to restrict folder level access to certain folders in the personal archive folders. I have tried two ways. One is by using Delegated access but this only lets you delegate access to the mailbox and not to the Personal archive folders. I can't see how to set this. Another method i have tried is to set Full Access on the person's Mailbox on server side, which automatically then gives full access to both Mailbox and Personal Archive. Now if i need to restrict access to certain folders in the Personal Archive, how do i do this?
Help will be appreciated.
Thankyou.
Hi All,
We are running Exchange 2010 single site. Now our boss wants a complete Data Center Redundancy for Exchange, he wants a complete data center switch over automatically. We have a simple current scenario, our MX record is hosted at our ISP, they rout emails to our public IP, ie our Firewall interface, and then firewall passes it to spam filter and then to hub transport. Actually we already have a connected DR where we only have an Exchange Server with Hub and CAS roles (not included in primary data center's CAS NLB) and a DAG member which holds all the passive copies. Please help me out in automatic Data Center Fail over scenario, what shell we have at our DR (means another firewall router and spam filter) and how it will automatically fail over if primary data center goes down and how much time will it take to come alive.
Thanks

Hi!
As the topic says, I'm having trouble setting up resource mailboxes with access from linked mailboxes.
So, Domain A is hosting the mail for Domain B using linked mailboxes.
The users of Domain B are now asking for a shared calendar where they can book rooms. So I began setting up a resource mailbox. But I cannot find how to add linked mailboxes for In-Policy Requests.
Tried googling it, but I have not been able to get any useful info from the results.
Please point me in the right direction!
Hi,
Setup:
3 CAS servers - Exchange 2010
1 IIS ARR reverse proxy
I followed these two 1 2 write-ups on how to setup Exchange 2010 OWA to use IIS ARR as a reverse proxy. The problem I'm having is when all three servers are online in the server farm OWA doesn't work properly. You can log in fine, but it appears to not load fully and you can't click on anything (eg Calendar, emails, forward, reply, etc). If I were to take all the servers offline except for one (doesn't matter which one), OWA functions normally.
Since some users also access OWA internally I have configured IIS on each CAS server to redirect to HTTPS and the OWA virtual directoy. I don't think this is causing the problem, but I thought I should mention it.
I followed the articles exactly. I'm not sure what could be causing the problem.
Thanks
I need to know if the following is possible.
We have an Exchange 2007 Enterprise server running. I wanted to skip 2010 and go straight to 2013 CU2. Everything was fine with the install and setup. I have tested mail flow and everything works. However we are using a NetApp SAN for the LUN storage, with Snap Disk and Snap Manager for Exchange, I have now found out that Net App do not support Single Mail Restore on 2013 due to MAPI being removed from 2013. This is a feature that is used within the Enterprise, not a lot but it is is used.
Now when I originally install 2013 I got the warning of once it is installed we cannot install a 2010 server. Is this correct or is it possible with 2010 SP3.
I have a user that is attempting to add a rule on a Public Folder using some advanced settings.
We have removed the checkbox in Maintain per-user read and unread information for this folder as shown below:
After setting this I assumed I would be able to open up the following setting for them:
Can anyone tell me why this setting is not available and where I change it so that it is.
Note the users I have tested on all have owner permission on the Public Folder.
Hi !
Trying to install Address Book Policy Transport Agent on our Exchange 2010 SP3 server.
Install failes with error that "Microsoft.Exchange.Transport.Agent.AddressBookPloicyRoutingAgent.dll" doesn't exist.
When checking the path (-AssemblyPath $env:ExchangeInstallPath\TransportRoles\agents\AddressBookPolicyRoutingAgent) I see that there is no AddressBookPolicyRoutingAgent folder.
I thought these files was installed with SP2 ?
Anyone experience the same situation ?
Best Regards,

I receive the following error when attempting to create a new room or equipment mailbox.
The action 'New-Mailbox', 'ActiveSyncMailboxPolicy', may not be performed by the Resource Mailbox 'PA Oven'.
When I select all the same options for a user mailbox, it creates successfully.
Hi,
I'm not sure when the problem actually started, but I'm thinking it started when the last updates were installed on the server. I can see the .edb file for the public folders in explorer, but not in EMC. I've run all the usual eseutil to check the integrity, defrag, etc., and everything there points to it's a good database. ISINTEG shows the database as being offline. Since I cannot see the database listed in EMC, I'm unable to mount it there.....so I've tried running various forms of mount-database. If I try this without any parameters, from the exchange server, in the folder where the database is located, with the database name listed there, I get the error:
The operation couldn't be performed because object 'public folder database 0997749526.edb' couldn't be found on '<1 of my dc's>'. + CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (0:Int32) [Mount-Database],
ManagementObjectNotFoundException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : F7B735E5,Microsoft.Exchange.Management.SystemConfigurationTasks.MountDatabase
One of the strange things to me is it looks for the database on one of our other DC's and not here on the actual exchange server. If I use -Identity and put the entire path, including server, I get the error:
Cannot process argument transformation on parameter 'Identity'. Cannot convert value "<Full exchanger server name>\public folder database 0997749526.edb" to type "Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.DatabaseIdParameter". Error:"<server name>\public folder database 0997749526.edb' is not a valid value for the identity.
Parameter name: Identity"
+ CategoryInfo : InvalidData: (:) [Mount-Database], ParameterBindin...mationException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : ParameterArgumentTransformationError,Mount-Database
I tried using the get-mailboxdatabase command, but do not see this database listed.....most likely because it's not mounted?
As an experiment, I tried creating a new Public Folder database in the same place using the same name just to see if it would overwrite the current database or maybe even just open it, it does give an error that there is already a database there with that name.
I really don't care what I need to do to fix it at this point. We basically just use the Public Folders to hold the offline address book and a calendar to book the conference room. The offline address book can be rebuilt, but I'd like to get the calendar data out of the old if at all possible. I'm close to just scrapping the old and starting from scratch, but thought I'd give this a try first. Any information is greatly appreciated!
I have created 2 new mailbox databases with 2 passive copies each across our 3 mailbox servers. One of these databases, DATABASE_P, is perfectly fine. The other database however, DATABASE_S, has been created, but then overnight the two passive copies have disappeared. There is not much in the logs to say what has happened, except that the MSExchangeRepl logs have it showing 3 copies at 23:42, and then 1 copy an hour later. I also get this error on the active server:
Exchange Search Indexer failed to enable the Mailbox Database DATABASE_S (GUID = GUID) after 10 tries. The last failure was: MapiExceptionMdbOffline: Unable to get CI watermark (hr=0x80004005, ec=1142)
Please let me know what is going on so that I can get this fixed.
Hi,
i have a problem accessing Public Folder Databases from Outlook. After migrating mailboxes from Exchange 2007 mailboxserver to Exchange 2010, i cannot access the Public Folder with Outlook 2010 Client. If i want to extend the public folder view i receive the following error:
Der Ordner kann nicht erweitert werden. Ihr Profil ist nicht konfiguriert. (/o=First Organization/ou=Exchange Administrative Group (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT)/cn=Configuration/cn=Servers/cn=EXENT1
This folder cannot be extended. Your profile is not configured. (/o=First Organization/ou=Exchange Administrative Group (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT)/cn=Configuration/cn=Servers/cn=EXENT1
I can access the same public folder with the same user account in OWA and replication is enabled on the Exchange 2010 Mailbox server. The Public Folder Database is mounted.
It really drives me mad. I cant find any issues with Best Practise Analyzer or the Exchange Cmdlets for health check. Any suggestion what can cause this error and how to debug it? Any help would be welcome.
