Migrating public folders to exchange 2013 hebrew issue

I am migrating public folders to exchange 2013. half of them a named in hebrew.
The migration fails, the error is character related.
Is it possible at all to migrate hebrew named public folders?

Hi,
Did you got the error message mentioned in the following thread?
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/exchange/en-US/8b383a46-b710-4fc0-aa0b-e52f288cf93d/e2010-to-e2013-public-folders-migration-failed?forum=exchangesvrdeploy
If so, please check if they are mail-enabled public folders. If they are mail-enabled public folders, please make sure there are no invalid characters in alias.
Based on the description, you couldn't migrate public folders named in Hebrew, other public folders could be moved successfully. If I misunderstood your concern, please let me know.
If the issue persists, I'm afraid you need to rename these public folders in English.
Best regards,
Belinda

Edit public folders in Exchange 2013

With the help of Microsoft I migrated my whole 2007 exchange to exchange 2013 including public folders. In 2007 I had a DB with folders like "First Year Students", "Second Year Students" ect... and used to update the contents
of these folder in the DB with CSV files. All of my migrated public folders show up in EAC/Public Folders as "PFMB1" I have no idea how or even if I can edit this.
Any help on this area would be appreciated

Can you please explain more in detail what you are trying to do? Perhaps with an example...

Migrating Public Folders on Exchange Server 2007 SP1 to Exchange Online\Office 365

Hello,
Our company is looking to migrate from Exchange 2007 on premises to Exchange Online/Office 365. We have a number of public folders on our exchange server that function similarly to how the new shared mailboxes work in Exchange Online. That is to say that
we have many outside users (customers and wholesale dealers) emailing this public folder ([email protected]) and our end users are given permission to view and respond as themselves ([email protected]). I've been looking all over but haven't found a clean
way to migrate the current public folders directly into shared mailboxes. I'd just start from scratch, but we want to keep the records of the emails we've received at these public folders for customer support reasons. Can anyone help?

Hi psh8989,
According to your description, I know that you want to migrate public folder from Exchange 2007 to Office 365.
Since Office 365 is different from Exchange On-Premises, I suggest ask Office 365 Forum for help so that you can get more professional suggestions. For your convenience:
http://community.office365.com/en-us/default.aspx
However, I can also share some information for your reference : )
Based on my knowledge, Exchange supports moving your public folders to Office 365 and Exchange Online from Exchange 2007 SP3 RU10 or later. I notice that your Exchange server version is SP1, please upgrade to SP3 RU10 first and perform migration.

Is it possible to access the Public Folders in Exchange 2013 during a migration from Exchange 2007 to verify the files are there?

This is a migration from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013. We're in the middle of migrating the Public Folders. Is it possible to configure a database to point to the Exchange 2013 public folders so I can verify the data before the final cut?
If so what are the steps to do that? Thanks in advance.

To my knowledge no. It's an all or nothing thing with public folders.

Enable legacy public folders for Exchange 2013 prior to migration?

We're about ready to migrate to Exchange 2013 from 2010. We have a public folder database on 2010 that users can't see once migrated to 2013. If I run through the commands according to the technet article "Configure legacy public folders where user
mailboxes are on Exchange 2013 servers" (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn690134(v=exchg.150).aspx), will users who's mailboxes are still on Exchange 2010 be able to see these public folders?

I know they've made alot of changes recently in how legacy public folders are handled in Exchange 2013 (mostly CU7), but I haven't had to do anything more than just setting the proper public folder database on the Exchange 2013 databases.
That being said, looking over the article you are not doing any moves, and it looks eerily similar to this blog post:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2014/11/07/on-premises-legacy-public-folder-coexistence-for-exchange-2013-cumulative-update-7-and-beyond.aspx
So I don't think this would hurt Public Folder access for your users in your legacy environment.
Did you deploy CU7? If so, then do what both articles say. If not try using Set-MailboxDatabase -Identity <2013 db name> -PublicFolderDatabase <PF DB NAME>

Having issues seeing public folders in Exchange 2013.

We have an multi-tenant Exchange 2013 environment and are currently trying to set up up Public Folders for use with one of our tenants.
I have created the primary public folder mailbox and then created a public folder for the Tenant and assigned the necessary permissions to user account I would like to access the folder from (in this case "owner" permissions). However I cannot
see the public folder from Outlook. This is the case with both Outlook 2007 and Outlook 2013. I have made sure I am in the folder view (Cntrl + 6) but I see no public folders to speak of. I am able to log into OWA and add the public folder
to the favourite list by right clicking and selecting "add public folder", I am also able to access the public folders using a third party mobile app for iPhone called "Public Folders". I've also tried creating completely new profiles
in both versions of Outlook but I cannot see the public folders that way either.
We are currently using a third party wildcard certificate with our multi-tenant environment, not sure if that would have an impact on what we are doing here but thought I'd throw that in just in case.

Hi,
Do you mean the public folder still cannot be seen even you logged the Outlook 2007 good user on an Outlook 2013 machine?

Viewing attachments in Public Folders in Exchange 2013 SP1 OWA

Hello!
Tell me please should the file preview work in Public Folders (for example for docx files) in OWA 2013 SP1? This file can be easily opened in MS Word but clicking the
Preview leads to the following error:
Thank you in advance,
Michael

Hi Jessie,
Thank you for your help!
"To preview these files in Inbox in OWA, Exchange 2013 could has its own process to achieve this function. I tried it in Exchange 2013 CU1 environment, it is also working when previewing these files in the Inbox
in OWA." - that's the only possible explanation... but it means this article is not correct:
http://technet.microsoft.com/library/2591b1be-92c4-4192-9f5e-e4e6b319170a"
"By default, the following file types are displayed
using Office Web Apps Server:
Word documents (doc, docx, dotx, dot, dotm extensions)
Excel documents (xls, xlsx, xlsm, xlm, xlsb extensions)
PowerPoint documents (ppt, pptx, pps, ppsx, potx, pot, pptm, potm, ppsm extensions)
...cause I can preview files without Office Web Apps Server. Why there's no corresponding information on technet?
To put it mildly, documentation for Exchange 2013 is rather strange...

Michael

Migrating Public folders Fatal error MapiExceptionNoReplicaAvailable

I am trying to migrate our public folders from our old 2010 server to the new 2013 one. I have created the folders (one) as per instructions and can see the structure under the name "Public" with "Mailbox1" in ecp but when I run the command

We only use one or our existing public folders and I'm wondering about simply unlocking the structure and restoring the emails from Veeam backup. I need to get rid of the old exchange server for disk space. However I'd really like to get the
migration done properly in case we turn out to need some further stuff.
Is there any way to debug this issue and get the migration done?
Many thanks

Hi Jay,
This issue occurs because there are some legacy system folders in the public folder database.
To resolve this issue, follow these steps:
Open the Public Folder Management Console.
Expand and then click System Public Folders so that it is highlighted and populates the Result pane.
Right-click schema-root and then select Remove.
Right-click all "OWAscratchpad" entries and then select Remove.
Migrate public folders to Exchange Server 2013. For more information about how to do this, refer to the following Microsoft TechNet article:
Migrate public folders to Exchange 2013 from previous versions

Public folders from exchange 2007 to exchange 2013

HI I am new to exchange, i am planning to do the migration of Exchange 2007SP3 UR10 to Exchange 2013 CU7, I want to move public folders from exchange 2007 to exchange 2013. wht is the procedure to move and wht are the commands to know how many public folders
i have.I just want to be aware before the installation so that later i can avoid issues.please do guide me

Hi Quiett,
please find how to move public folders on ttp://www.msexchange.org/articles-tutorials/exchange-server-2013/migration-deployment/migrating-public-folders-exchange-2013-part1.html
You can replace your servers names and follow exactly the proedure that is shown there. I strongly suggest to read also the 2nd page (replication) before you start. Please be aware of
Set-OrganizationConfig –PublicFoldersLockedForMigration $True , so you cannot change the source side whle migrating.

Martin

Unable to access public folders on Exchange 2007 when user mailbox is on Exchange 2013

Hi
I have coexistence with Exchange 2007 and Exchange 2013. I've moved a mailbox to Exchange 2013 and now cannot view the public folders on Exchange 2007. The error message I get is "could not connect to the public folder server. microsoft exchange is
not available. either there are network problems or the exchange server is down for maintenance."
Mailboxes on Exchange 2007 do not have any problems viewing public folders. I can't migrate users to Exchange 2013 until this issue is resolved.
The IIS permissions to the Public virtual directory on Exchange 2007 is set to Intergrated Windows and Basic authentication.

Hi northerly,
I recommend you follow the steps below for troubleshooting:
1. Please run the Get-OutlookAnywhere cmdlet to verify the Outlook Anywhere settings on Exchange Server 2013 Client Access servers.
2. If "ExternalHostName" is set, and "ExternalClientAuthenticationMethod" is Negotiate, change "ExternalClientAuthenticationMethod" to something other than Negotiate.
3. If "InternaClientlAuthenticationMethod" is set to Negotiate, and "InternalRequireSSL" is True, change "InternalClientAuthenticationMethod" to something other than Negotiate, or change "InternalRequireSSL" to False.
What's more, here is a helpful KB for your reference.
Users of Exchange Server 2013 or Exchange Online can't open public folders or shared mailboxes on an Exchange 2010 or Exchange 2007 server

Hope my clarification is helpful.
If there are any problems, please feel free to let me know.

Manually Move Public Folders from Exchange 2010 to 2013

Hi all,
I have a issue to finishing my migration from Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013, I have been trying to migrate my Public folders but always after a couple hours, the migration state is failed.
The final error is the following:
FailureCode                      : -2146233088
FailureType                      : SourceMailboxAlreadyBeingMovedPermanentException
FailureSide                      :
Message                          : Error: Couldn't switch the mailbox into Sync Source mode.
                                   This could be because of one of the following reasons:
                                     Another administrator is currently moving
the mailbox.
                                     The mailbox is locked.
                                     The Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Replication
service (MRS) doesn't have the correct
                                   permissions.
                                     Network errors are preventing MRS from cleanly
closing its session with the
                                   Mailbox server. If this is the case, MRS may continue
to encounter this error for
                                   up to 2 hours - this duration is controlled by the TCP
KeepAlive settings on the
                                   Mailbox server.
                                   Wait for the mailbox to be released before attempting
to move this mailbox again.
So, after seeing this I started to monitoring all process and I realized that after creating hierarchy the process start to fail and keep in StalledDueMailboxlock status, and the error is:
FailureCode                      :
FailureType                      :
FailureSide                      :
Message                          : Informational: The request has been temporarily postponed because the mailbox is
                                   locked. The Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Replication service
will attempt to continue
                                   processing the request after 2/14/2015 12:38:20 PM.
Finally, digging more into reports of migration I found this:
MapiExceptionNetworkError: MapiExceptionNetworkError: Unable to open entry ID. (hr=0x80040115, ec=6)_x000A_Diagnostic context:_x000A_ Lid: 40487 EMSMDBMT.EcDoRpcExt2 called [length=73]_x000A_ Lid: 44583 EMSMDBMT.EcDoRpcExt2

So, would like to know if exist any procedure to migrate/move my Public Folders from Exchange 2010 to 2013 manually, something like Export/Import.
Regards!

What script and process you are running to migrate the Public Folders?
And what do you mean by Manually?

How to migrate public folders from legacy (exchange 2003 ) to exchange 2010

How to migrate public folders from legacy (exchange 2003 ) to exchange 2010 . Please suggest ?
Aditya Mediratta

Hi Aditya,
please find the answer in
http://blogs.technet.com/b/agobbi/archive/2010/08/04/how-to-move-public-folder-from-exchange-2003-to-exchagne-2010.aspx
Please ensure you have a working mailflow from Exchange 2003 to 2010, vice versa, before you begin.
Basically it's the same procedure as adding some PF Database in E2K3; just
run .\AddReplicaToPFRecursive.ps1 -server "Exchange 2010 Server" -TopPublicFolder "\" -ServerToAdd "Exchange 2010 Server"
Wait until some initial data started to replicate; after that run
Update-PublicFolderHierarchy -Server "Exchange 2010 Server"
After replication has finished you can do a
.\MoveAllReplicas.ps1 -Server "Exchange 2003 Server" -NewServer "Exchange 2010 Server"
Please let me know if it worked.
Kind regards,
Martin

Users unable to create or delete folders in migrated public folders using Outlook

We have an Exchange 2013 CU3 environment migrated from Exchange 2007.
The public folder migration was completed over the weekend.
The environment has several public folder mailboxes.
Post migration users are unable to create/delete new sub folders, or modify permissions using Outlook on any of the migrated public folders. Users can however create new top level folders using outlook. They can also create and delete new posts
in migrated public folders.
Admins are able to create folders and set permissions on migrated folders using the EAC.
Test User accounts used for testing are set to use the Primary Hierarchy mailbox as their default public folder mailbox.
Test Users have been given Owner permissions from the root down on the folders we are testing with.
We have tested with Outlook 2010 and 2013 getting the same "Cannot create the folder" error.

Further testing
We moved a top level folder from a secondary PF mailbox to the primary PF mailbox using the New-PublicFolderMoveRequest command in powershell.
After the move completed we could create new folders under the moved top level folder.
The top level folder that was moved had it's own sub-folders that we did not move to the primary mailbox. (We didn't move the whole branch.. Just the top level folder)
We still cannot create or modify the existing sub-folders after moving the top level folder.
We then moved the newly created sub-folder to a secondary PF mailbox.
At that point we could no longer create sub-folders in the folder form outlook.
From what I can tell you can only create new sub-folders in folders homed to the primary PF mailbox when using outlook.
Is this a bug or as designed?
According to this Tech ed presentation Clients connecting to a secondary PF mailbox should have folder changes proxy to the primary PF mailbox.. (See slide 10)
http://channel9.msdn.com/Events/TechEd/NorthAmerica/2013/OUC-B329#fbid=
Update : 2-5-2014
Not much new to report other than it appears that users need to be homed to the primary PF mailbox to delete calendar meetings.
Opened a ticket with Premier support.
Update 2-11-2014
Premier support continues to look into the issue. No ideas as to the cause yet.
2-24-13
Still no resolution from support or even a clue what is causing this.
