Cannot log on to MAPI with specified credentials

[Lars_Ove_Claess]

Hi, all.

I've searched everywhere for a solution, but nothing seems to get me on track, here. The backup always fail with the specified error:

Final error: 0xe00002fe - Cannot log on to MAPI with the specified credentials. Review the resource credentials for the job, and then run the job again. Final error category: Resource Errors For additional information regarding this error refer to link V-79-57344-766

I've done everything that link tells me to do. I am now using the Administrator account to run backups, and I can logon on a workstation, open Outlook and see that everything is OK. When testing the credentials under the job setup, everything passes (The System Logon Account is administrator as well).

Any hints? I am using SBS2008.

Do the following steps to resolve this problem

1. Uninstall MAPI and CDO from exchange server.

2. Reboot exchange server

3. Download latest CDO from Microsoft site

4. Install downloaded CDO (Version 1.2.1) and reboot exchange server

This problem occurs in case of curruption in installed MAPI client.

Above procedure has resolved my exchange problem and hope it helps you  as well.

Thanx DW

Your remedy is worked. I can backup my exchange database

I assume the solution is only for exchange 2007, what about those on 2003?
