Hello all,
I have one machine which won't connect to our Exchange server with
Outlook 2003.
I get the following error messages:
Task 'Microsoft Exchange Server' reported error (0x8004011D) : 'The
server is not available. Contact your administrator if this condition
persists.'
Task 'Microsoft Exchange Server - Sending' reported error (0x80040115) :
'The connection to the Microsoft Exchange Server is unavailable.
Outlook must be online or connected to complete this action.'
I don't know if the problem is specific to the machine, or specific to
the location because:
If I bring the machine into my office and connect there, it works fine.
Since my office and the warehouse (where the machine is normally
located) is on the same network, it is not a VPN problem. Nor would it
be a TCPIP problem, unless somehow the TCPIP files/settings/whatever
related became corrupted.
The obvious thing to check would be the network cabling, and port config
on the network switch, but I've found nothing obviously wrong. The
computer can access all the other shared resources on our Exchange
Server computer just fine.
Other things I've tried so far include flushing the DNS cache,
hardcoding the IP address of our Exchange Server into the HOSTS file,
checking the license manager to make sure we weren't over our limit,
deleting all the .ost/.pst files, deleting the .srs/xml files in
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook,
and created new profiles from scratch.
As a part of creating the new profiles, Outlook doesn't have any
problems validating the user name on the server.
Any other ideas out there I should try?
This is the only machine affected in the entire building. I have 83
other users set up exactly the same way just fine.
Thanks!
