Uninstalling Exchange 2007 - Folder Replicas Error

I'm trying to remove Exchange 2007 which I was testing using our development system but have come across some errors during the uninstall process.
The error message I receive is something like this: Error: Uninstall cannot continue. Database "Public Folder Database": The public folder database "SERVER\Second Storage Group\Public Folder Database" contains folder replicas...
Now unfortunately i'm a) no exchange expert (i'm a .NET dev) and b) we dont use exchange for email - so I cant move folders to an alternative location.
All I want to do is remove the software without bringing the network down again (I didn't realise removing a mailbox from exchange 07 removed the user account as well!).
Thanks for your help,
Matt

Run the Get-PublicFolderStatistics cmdlet using the Exchange Management Shell and examine the output.  If the folders listed are no longer required, you can remove them by piping the results of the Get-PublicFolderStatistics cmdlet into the Remove-PublicFolder
cmdlet:
Get-PublicFolderStatistics | Remove-PublicFolder
Once you've done this, re-run Get-PublicFolderStatistics and when no results are returned, you should find that this particular issue no longer prevents the uninstall of Exchange 2007.
I know this is an old post but I am at wits end....
This doesnt work for me, just get all of these errors

  • Cannot uninstall Exchange 2007

    When I try to uninstall Exchange 2007 I get the following error under the Mailbox Role.
    The virtual directory 'ExchWeb' already exists under 'server.domain.com/Default Web Site' Parameter Name: VirtualDirectoryName.
    I actually tried removing the ExchWeb virtual directory on the Exchange 07 server but that didn't help. I haven't been able to find anything else on the internet regarding this issue.

    Hi,
    From error "Exchange server "server" was not found. Please make sure you have typed it in correctly", I recommend you check if the Exchange 2007 server is under the CN=Servers container in ADSIEDIT.
    If it is there, based on the situation, you couldn't uninstall Exchange 2007 Mailbox role via Add/Remove Programs or using Setup.com /mode:uninstall /role:<server roles to remove> command. The last resort is to uninstall Exchange 2007 Mailbox role
    using ADSIEDIT, the method using ADSIEDIT should be only be used carefully.
    If it isn't there, maybe the suggestion mentioned in the following thread can help you.

  • Exchange 2007 EXCDO 8206 error in Exchange 2007 SP2 with Rollup 4

    Dear sir,
        We have a problem on Exchange 2007 Server. When user use OWA to access web mail calendar, server event log will show EXCDO error 8206:
    Calendaring agent failed with error code 0x8000ffff while saving appointment
    Type: Error
    Event ID: 8207
    Category: General.
         Moreover server becomes working in very slow web mail response during any user click web mail calendar.   Server performance return back after error message appeared  in event log.
    It doesn't has problem if using Outlook to access mailbox calendar.
    Any suggestion to fix it ?
    Joe

    Hi Joe,
    We are also finding the same issue with getting that EXCDO error. The problem stemmed when users noticed some previously accepted appointments disappeared (As I suspect you discovered with your users). 
    The workaround has been to get the user to accept the appointment again by going into deleted items, this seems to add the appointment as it should have the first time.
    We have done the following but it didn't fix the problem:
    Disabled extra SEP features on the clients - No Change
    Disabled non-essential Outlook add-ons - No Change 
    Removed BES Express and CDO MAPI From Exchange server - No Change
    Disabled MS Defender on Exchange - No Change
    Fixed any Public folder errors - No Change
    Disable Window services WSS and UNC sharing feature in Active Sync - No Change
    Also ensured Autoupdate and auto process was enabled for affected users - No Change
    I'm going to try the reg change mentioned in this thread but other than the built in MS Defender we don't have anti-virus on our mail server. 
    At first we thought it was Active Sync as it only seem to impact those with a A/S device, but now it's intermittent for other users using Outlook.  We are currently using Exchange 2007 SP3 with RU13. We are looking at trying an update
    to RU14 but I am doubtful it will fix the problem. Did you have any luck finding a solution?
    Thank you in Advance.

  • Exchange 2007 New Install Error - Read only MultiValuedProperty does not support this operation

    Existing Server/Exchange 2003 environment. New 2003 R2 x64 server fully patched and updated with no other apps installed attempting to install Exchange 2007 SP2.
    Initially I was getting the error "Could not find the default Administrative Group ‘Exchange Administrative Group (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT)’". This I
    fixed by completely uninstalling per this Microsoft article,
    this Microsoft FixIt article and this recommended blog post, ending with
    setup.com /preparead. I'm making progress, because now I'm getting a new error attempting the install. Specifically, Hub Transport installation fails with "Read only MultiValuedProperty does not support this operation."
    Executing
    setup.com /prepareSchema fails. I've set the msExchVer attribute for CN=Offline Address Lists to 4535486012416 and gotten no change, the install still fails. This
    Googled page exactly describes my problem, and all anyone could say was to add this version number. It doesn't work. Pretty much none of the threads I've read have a resolution beyond this. I'm stumped, any help would be greatly appreciated.

    What's the error message when executing  setup.com /prepareSchema fails? failed at Organization Checks?
    Could you please check whether you are on the right schema version?

  • Exchange 2003 sp2 to exchange 2007 sp1 upgrade error

    Hi,
    We had Windows 2003 DCs and Exchange 2003 servers. We migrated AD DCs to windows 2008 R2 at parent domain.
    We have one parent domain and 10 child domains in remote sites .3 remote sites have been migrated to windows 2008 R2.
    Now at parent domain I am trying to install exchange 2007 SP1 on a server with windows 2008 R2 SP1. I am facing certain issues:
    1. When I run setup /PrepareSchema on this new exchange server , the organization check fails with error stating that : cannot find at least one DC running windows 2003 SP1 or later in DC=xyx,DC=com. This could be the result of moving DC objects in AD. Check
    that at least one DC running windows server 2003 SP1 or later is located in the "Domian Controllers" OU and rerun setup".
    2. When I try to install exchange server 2007 , I get the following error
    Object cannot be saved because its ExchangeVersion property is 0.10 (14.0.100.0), which is not supported
    by the current version 0.1 (8.0.535.0). You will need a later version of Exchange.".
    Can any one shed light on this issue.
    Regards

    You cannot install Exchange 2007 SP1 on Windows 2008 R2 SP1 as it is unsupported.
    Only version of Exchange 2007 supported when OS is Windows 2008 R2 or R2 SP1 is Exchange 2007 SP3.
    Where are you installing Exchange ? child or parent domain ?
    2. When I try to install exchange server 2007 , I get the following error "Object
    cannot be saved because its ExchangeVersion property is 0.10 (14.0.100.0), which is not supported by the current version 0.1 (8.0.535.0). You will need a later version of Exchange.".
    Above error indicates that Exchange setup is trying to modify
    a version of an object which might have been created when organization is prepared for Exchange 2010. don't you have exchange 2010 Servers already in your environment ?
    Please give more information about your current email infrastructure
    and whether if you are installing exchange on parent or child domain?

  • Exchange 2007 mailbox creation error

    Hi,
    We are having problems with our standard AD/Exchange adapter when creating users with a mailbox.
    We currently have the following setup:
    - Sun IdM 8.1.0.7
    - There are 4 DC, and two Exchange 2007 Servers.
    - The gateway runs on a seperate Win2003 R2 32 bit server (but is a member of the AD).
    The error we are getting is this:
    PowerShell:41b59779-b9cb-487f-b200-4b9836dc176d is not a mailbox user.
    It seems like the gateway has a preferred DC when creating accounts.
    But when creating the Exchange account, the Exchange server has a different preferred DC,
    where the AD account is not yet present. (there is an 5 minute replication interval)
    We don't have a test enviroment with the same setup, which makes it a bit tricky to find the problem,
    and testing possible solutions for it. Out test enviroment consists only of 1 DC, and 1 Exchange server so
    the errors does not exist there.
    Is there anyone who has seen something like this before, and in that case, is there a solution for it?
    Or it's maybe better if a put it like this: Is there anyone who is running multiple DC:s and multiple Exchange Servers
    without these problems? And in that case, are you creating the user and the mailbox at the same time?
    I would gladly provide some more info and logs, if you specify what might be interesting to see.
    Thanks and kind regards,
    Henrik

    Some additional info:
    Today the process goes like this:
    First we create the user and does not set the RecipientType -> The user is created in AD (without Mailbox)
    Second we set the following attributes when we want the user to get a Mailbox: (5 min delay)
    EmailAddressPolicyEnabled = false
    PrimarySmtpAddress = [email protected]
    RecipientType = MailboxUser
    Database = <our-db-here>
    The user now gets his mailbox, but the email generated by Exchange is used when I look at the user.
    And also the EmailAddressPolicy stays enabled.
    Any ideas about the attributes I'm trying to set here?
    Regards,
    Henrik

  • Exchange 2007 Problem - SP2 error bbwinsdr

    I have Windows Server 2003 64bit, running Exchange 2007 with SP1 installed. I am trying to install SP2 and getting this error with no luck locating an answer:

  • Exchange 2007 Export-Mailbox Error Message on only certain mailbox

    I have searched high and low for a solution to this, but no such luck. Hopefully someone has had the same issue and can help me out.
    I am attempting to export and then remove a date range for mailboxes before I migrate to an Exchange 07 server. The mailboxes range in the 10 GB range. I am attempting to use the Exchange 2007 cmdlet to do this with due to it does not have a 2 GB limit like the Exmerge of past.
    The command I am using is as follows:
    [PS] C:\>Export-Mailbox -Identity User -StartDate "01/01/07" -EndDate "01/30/08"
    -IncludeFolders "\Inbox","\Sent Items" -PSTFolderPath c:\PST\pst.pst
    This command works fine on some of the mailboxes in the Exchange03 system. But on some of the mailboxes I am getting the following error.
    Error occurred in the step: Moving messages. Failed to copy messages to t
    he destination mailbox store with error:
    MAPI or an unspecified service provider.
    ID no: 00000000-0000-00000000, error code: -1056749164
    Any ideas?

    Hello Joe Rod (and others)
    Thought I'd bring this over as a cross post because no-one seems to be picking it up in the 'admin' section. I believe I'm having a similar issue to yourself, as detailed below:
    Hi all,
    I've already posted this same question elsewhere, but if anyone here can resolve the issue or suggest a better way (without using archiving software - yet!), I'd be most grateful. I'd even be happy if someone can replicate the problem so I know I'm not going mad... I'm trying to set up a quick & dirty quarter year pst mail archive for one of our users on our Exchange 2007 (SP1) box. Using the command:
    export-mailbox -id userA -pstfolderpath \\testpath\test.pst -enddate "01/03/2007"
    I come up against this error:
    Error occurred in the step: Moving messages. Failed to copy messages to the destination mailbox store with error: MAPI or an unspecified service provider. ID no: 00000000-0000-00000000, error code: -1056749164
    Which I understand is a fairly standard permissions error. Problem is that I know the permissions are set correctly, having tested the function by removing the -enddate parameter; and getting a successful export.
    I worked out after a while that the command seems to fall over when it hits a subfolder, so I tested this by using the -includefolders parameter. The command:
    export-mailbox -id userA -pstfolderpath \\testpath\test.pst -includefolders '\inbox' -enddate "01/03/2007"
    will fail if there are any subfolders under '\inbox'. Add the names of the subfolders:
    export-mailbox -id userA -pstfolderpath \\testpath\test.pst -includefolders '\inbox\subfolder1' -enddate "01/03/2007"
    and as long as those subfolders don't have any subfolders, I will get a successful export.
    Any help appreciated.
    Cheers
    Dan
    If anyone is able to replicate this, please let me know, I'd love to get this sorted. If it is a known problem - can I use someone's PSS contact please?!

  • Can not uninstall Exchange 2007 64 bit. -

    I am in a bit of a pickle here and hope that someone has some suggestions.
     Recently, 6 months ago we upgraded to server 2012 and Exchange 2013 64 bit.  
    Everything has been moved from the 2003 server / 2007 exchange environment and seems to be running correctly.   
    To be honest the 2003 server was cut off for a few weeks just to make sure that everything was completely moved over to the 2012/2013 environment.  
    Good news here is it all works except for Exchange 2013 fussing about not being able to see the 2007 exchange server.  
    Goal:   Completely remove Exchange from
    this server followed by removing the server from AD.   It is 7 years old and I want to
    cut it off forever.
    Problem:   Exchange will not uninstall.   Per
    paid support call to Microsoft I was told if I wanted to completely and properly remove all instances of this server from my Exchange environment and AD environment I must use the add/remove programs method to do so.   Unfortunately this process
    fails as well as several other items on this server.
    Environment / Work done so 
    far:    The 2003 server running 2007 Exchange was also an AD server.  
    Yes I know it’s a non-supported environment, but it’s what I was handed and it seemed to work for years.  
    I have checked and this server is not running any FSMO roles anymore.   
    When I try to remove the application Exchange, through add/remove programs, I get a little gray box that comes up and says… “Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Setup Initializing”.  
    After about 3 or 4 seconds the box disappears and nothing further happens.  
    The same thing happens when I try to “Change” the application.
    Other things of interest:
    The Exchange Management Console will not load either.The error message is:CLSID:FX:(76dd58f7-54ba-42e3-a2e0-dbfb674539f)    
    The Exchange Management Shell will not seem to execute any commands either.I get several messages, but most have the following:“The type initializer for ‘InstanceContext’
    threw an exception.
    I downloaded service pack 3 and tried to install, but that failed as well.
    The follwoing Exchange related services will not run.
    Microsoft Exchange EdgeSync
    Microsoft Exchange IMAP$
    Microsoft Exchange Mail Submission
    Microsoft Exchange POP3
    Microsoft Exchange Replication Service
    Microsoft Exchange Search Indexer
    Microsoft Exchange Service Host
    Microsoft Exchange Transport
    Any suggestions / help would be greatly appreciated.

    Ok, the command did not work, but it did lead to the answer I think.  However, I'm not sure how to get this working.   Please remember that the console will not load and the all commands, but the help command fail inside the shell.  
    The exact error message is:
    Part 1
    ----from log file after failed setup /m:RecoverServer
    The user who's currently logged on doesn't have sufficient permissions to install this package. You need at least Exchange Server Administrator permissions on the current computer to complete this task.

  • Exchange 2007 Certificate Expired Error when using VPN

    We recently did a server migration to a new domain (split away from part of the company - sept 2013).  I set up the exchange certs and everything worked fine, even when people used the vpn.  Recently (it probably started a few months ago) it has
    started giving cert errors again, but just for VPN users.
    This happens when someone takes their computer or has Outlook 2010 set up on their home computer.  They VPN in and when the program starts, it gives the certificate errors for exchange and for autodiscover saying "The security certificate has expired
    or is not yet valid".  I have checked to make sure that the certs are in fact up to date and are pointing to the correct certificates in IIS.  They haven't changed since I originally set them up.  
    One of the users sent me a picture of the certificate and it is the old cert (that is expired) that used to belong to the previous address when we used the other (completely different) exchange server.  The other users haven't sent me the errors they
    see, but I assume they are similar.  They are able to use exchange if they hit ok on the error box.  I couldn't find anywhere online saying that there was any kind of local caching for certs - it should always call home when connecting.  So
    why are their systems pulling up the old cert when they VPN in, but not when they are hardwired to the internal network on the same computer?
    When using the internal network without the vpn, there aren't any error messages.
    Any ideas?  I've looked around the forums, but I didn't see anything that has helped.  I'm using godaddy for my certs currently.

    Hi,
    Since the Outlook clients work well without VPN, I suggest re-build the VPN (if you don't mind) to verify whether it is a caches issue.
    Thanks

  • Exchange 2007 Database mount error after server crash during defrag.

    Most likely but I have copies of the orignal and the temp still.
    Is there a way these can be used?? I was hoping not for a MS Support answer... =/

    Half way through copying the temporary database edb file my exchange server crashed.
    I now get the following errors when trying to mount the database.

  • Errors Decommissioning Exchange 2007 Server

    We are attempting to decommission an Exchange 2007 Server (single server). We have already gotten 2010 set up, installed, mailboxes moved and public folders moved. We went through and removed the replicas on the old server as well as removing the mailbox

    have been modified. Parameter name: ConfigurationFileLocation'
    I've gone through using ADSI Edit and removed the server from the Configuration>Services>SiteDomain>Administrative Groups>Exchange Administrative Groups>Servers
    and it was none existent in the Databases section.
    Even after all of these steps I'm still getting the error about the memory or XML file issue. Is there a way to replace the XML files with 'clean' ones or a way to repair the existing ones? I'm just simply wanting to uninstall it at this point.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    From your description, I would like to clarify the following things:
    1. It is not recommended to uninstall Exchange server in ADSIEdit.
    2. The above error indicates that one of the xml files is corrupted, you need to re-download it for troubleshooting.
    Hope my clarification can be helpful to you.
    Best regards,

  • Uninstall Exchange contains replicas problem

    I am trying to uninstall exchange 2007 (it was never used (installed by default on a sms box) and want to free up space).
    I run the uninstall and an error cannot continue. The public folder database cannot "***\Second storage group\public folder database" contains replicas
    I then run the command from the exchange shell
    Get-PublicFolder -Identity \ -GetChildren | Remove-PublicFolder -Recurse
    I get the error cannot find a mailbox to logon the public folder database.
    I also run
    Get-PublicFolder -Server ***  "\" -Recurse -ResultSize:Unlimited | Remove-PublicFolder -Server *** -Recurse -ErrorAction:SilentlyContinue
    *** server name
    And get the same error - I don't know exchange very well so basic instructions would help
    Cheers for your time

    Hi
    If you are sure that the public folder database is not used and all of the folders on it are actually copies of data held elsewhere then you can remove it using ADSIEdit:

  • HTTP 500 error when opening a legacy shared mailbox in OWA 2013 (Exchange 2007/2013 coexistence environment)

    Hi,
    Our Exchange 2013/2007 coexistence environment is set up and all is working apart from this:
    Mailbox A has full permissions to Mailbox B. Mailbox A is migrated to Exchange 2013, but Mailbox B remains on Exchange 2007. If I login to Outlook Web App 2013 as Mailbox A and then "Open another mailbox..." and select Mailbox B, a new window opens
    up saying "HTTP 500 Internal Server Error". The URL it is trying is :
    https://webmail.ourdomain.com/owa/[email protected]/?offline=disabled
    ( I can open Mailbox A in Outlook 2010 and do "Open Other users's folder.." and Mailbox B opens up just fine. )
    Our legacy CAS server's External and Internal URLs are set to :
    https://legacy.ourdomain.com/owa
    and the Exchange 2013 CAS server's External and Internal URLs are set to :
    https://webmail.ourdomain.com/owa
    We have FBA enabled on both the E2K7 and E2K13 OWA

    Hi Ansev,
    Thank you for your question.
    By my testing, user who was migrated to Exchange 2013 cannot access mailbox on Exchange 2007 with 500 error, although user account have “Full Access Permission” to mailbox on Exchange 2007.
    I suggest we migrate account which has “Full Access Permission” for other user  to Exchange 2013.
    If there are any questions regarding this issue, please be free to let me know. 
    Best Regard,
    Jim
