MapiExceptionNetworkError: Unable to make admin interface connection to server

Question

Receiving the following error trying to move mailboxes from Exchange 2003 to 2007 after installation. Verified all NIC's are configured. All Exchange processes are running as 'Local system'. Any other suggestions?

I ran into the same problem during the migration from SBS 2003 Premium with ISA Server 2004 to SBS 2011 Standard, and that is how
I found this thread.
I have tried ALL of the proposed solutions but unfortunately nothing worked for me…
Even though you paid proper attention to the migration path from SBS2003 to SBS2011 manual, followed all the steps, and performed
the suggested step:
To configure remote procedure call (RPC) filtering
1.
Click
Start, click All Programs, click Microsoft ISA Server, and then click
ISA Server Management.
2.
In the ISA Server Management Console tree, expand
Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration Server 2004, expand
ServerName, and then click Firewall Policy.
3.
In the details pane, click the
SBS Protected Networks Access Rule.
4.
On the
Taskstab, click Edit Selected Rule.
5.
On the
Protocolstab (for an access rule), click Filtering, and then click
Configure RPC protocol.
On the
Protocols tab, clear the Enforce strict RPC compliance check box, and then click
Apply.
…you will still get the notorious
MapiExceptionNetworkError: Unable to make connection to the server. (hr=0x80040115, ec=-2147221227) error.
Here is the solution to the Small Business Server 2003 with ISA Server 2004 migrating to the next level scenario:
*** Disable RPC Filter ***
To disable remote procedure call (RPC) filter
1.
Click
Start, click All Programs, click Microsoft ISA Server, and then click
ISA Server Management.
2.
In the ISA Server Management Console tree, expand
Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration Server 2004, expand
ServerName, expand Configuration, and then click
Add-Ins.
3.
In the
Application Filters pane, click the RPC Filter.
4.
On the
Tasks tab, click Disable Selected Rule.
To save changes and update the configuration, click
Apply.
I also opted to restart the service when prompted after hitting the “Apply” button.
I hope this helps someone to keep whatever is left of his or her hair and lower the blood pressure a bit :)
This was the solution also!!
Thanks. My heart doctor says that now, ina few weeks i will be fine. and hope my hair grows again.. :)
Thank you very much
