Directory is Invalid

[Harry_Tirrell_2]

I keep getting these errors intermittently. Usually refering to a directory in "Microsoft Exchange Public Folders" The problem seems to lock on a particular directory for a few nights, then either changes to a different directory in the same folder or runs without error. A/ny one have a suggestion

Hello Harry,


Which version of Exchange are you using?

a. Open Outlook with the Administrator-level account used to manage Microsoft Exchange Public Folders

b. Expand "Public Folders" and highlight the public folder that needs to be configured

c. Right-click on the Public Folder and select the Properties | Permissions tab

d. Highlight the account that is used to perform the backups of the Public Folders in the top pane

e. Under Permissions, use the Roles drop-down box to select the "Owner" role
and click OK

Please update us on the issue.

Version 9.1. I will try your suggestions when I get in office. Although backups have run successfully now for 3 nights on the folder that was failing. Folder has not been updated since June 05. I am beginning to think it mar have been an exchnage issue.
