Public folder archiving stopped on EV9

Hi

About a week ago Archiving of Public Folders stopped.

Evault 9.4 on windows 2003 R2 sp2 and exchange 2003 sp2 on w2k3 R2 sp2.

Using dtrace I see this errors for every public folder.

I've add the vault account as owner to the public folder (and subfolders).

I believe the archiving stopped after windows updates, but I might be wrong.

Mailbox archiving works (same servers, and accounts used).

It seems to be the same problem as here: https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/forums/ev9-no-new-items-public-folder-archiving

Please help.

    This issue looks to be communication to the DC at times causing an issue.  You could try to restart the tasks regularly to see if that helps.  Also, confirm that network has no issues.   In some cases a re-install of Outlook has helped.  

    These are the key lines from the Dtrace:
     
    3238 14:00:20.336 [6420] (PublicFolderTask) <9668> EV:L {HrMAPIOpenMsgStoreKvs:#50} Opened msg store [0x0]
    3239 14:00:20.340 [6420] (PublicFolderTask) <9668> EV:H {HrMAPIOpenFolderExKvs:#231} COM error caught [0x80070005]
     
    A change was made in 10.0.3 to avoid this path a provide a more reliable method of obtaining the information.  You may still experience issues at times until the upgrade to 10 is complete.

    Hello Andre,

    Is the password for the VSA recently changed? Could it be the account is locked out?

    the error code indicates a permission issue. What you could try initially is to reset the account in the VAC. (login as VSA, ricghtclick Directory, Service Account, type in password again, apply, ok) when done, restart the Admin service on all EV-servers.

    Check again.

    Hi GertJan

    No, the password was not changed, and the accound is not locked out. I've tried re-entering the password in VAC, but is does not help. btw the same account (and password) is used for mailbox archiving and those are still being processed.

    btw: there are no errors in the eventlog.

    regards.

    As gertjan pointed out, its a permissions issue so the EV Admin account probably had its full access permissions revoked on the public folders

    Hi JesusWept3

    I've (re)checked the permission. The EVAdmin account has owner rights on the public folder all the way from the top thru the sub folders. The account is not locked out.

    What else, is there in the DTrace something else I should look for?

    Thanks in advance

    i think you'll need more than owner rights on it , i think you'll need actual Information store rights
    What i would suggest is open the VAC , go to tools -> advanced features, right click the EV Server that runs the task, go to Deployment Scanner, uncheck "Gather information for support" and ensure Do Not Set Configuration Options is unchecked, then in the exchange servers list on the first page, add the exchange servers you're targeting for PF and let the DS run

    You may find that it might complain about send as/receive as permissions

    You may want to add the Hidden Security Page and then just look specifically at that Exchange Server or the information store in question and do an effective permissions against the EVAdmin account

    Hi JesusWept3

    I ran the deploymentscanner and got no errors.

    I got an OK on the exchange part. the EV Admin has Send As and Receive As rights.

    I think the permissions on the exchange server are oké as well.

    Is the  FixOrphanedShortcut registry key being used?  

    Also, looking into issues with the same error it is shown as resolved in 9.0.5 relating to MAPI "lie mode" and establishing connections.

    Hi Plaudone

    Sorry for the delay, things are busy for the moment.

    No, the FixOrphanedShortcut is not used. Is it part of EV 9.0.4 ?

    What does this key do? i'll guess Fixing Orphaned shortcuts, but which orphaned shortcuts. Normaly they are cleaned up by EV itself.

    Where does this key go ?

    Hi All

    I'v upgrade the server to EV9.0.5 (and to Windows 2008 r2), but the public folders are still not archived.

    No errors are logged in the eventlog.

    The vault admin account is an view only administrator on exchange.

    In exchange manager, the vault admin has full admin in the admingroup on the exchange server

    on the public folders top level, the vault admin has full admin

    on a public folder and subfolder i've added the vault admin as owner on the client permission, but this does not help. On this public folder in the directory rights the vault admin has only read access (read, list, read permissions,  execute, list object) and in administrative rights the vault admin has only "view information store status" (the last two are inherited). Are these last settings enough?

    Tia

    I've added a dtrace log to this post
