Hi, I'm having problem for installing the MB role on solo Exchange server 2007 in coexistence mode with Exchange 2003. During the setup, the CAS and HUB installing phase are fine, but when the setup goes to MB, it goes wrong. The famous message leading to the KB 935636 appears http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/935636/ I have checked the 2 first points for the publics folder and everything is fine and now I'm trying to do the ldap - opath transcritpion with the script given on msexchangeteam.org http://msexchangeteam.com/archive/2007/03/12/436983.aspx But when I'm trying to update an emailaddress policy it doesn't work. The transcritpion work I can see the new opath filter generate if I just ask for a display of the result, but when I choose the conversion it says that no server was here to execute the filter. SO I have 2 questions : 1/ Is there a way to find which element is causing the setup stop by upgrading the eventloglevel or something else. I know that it is possible but i just don't remember the elements to set to high 2/ How do I use the transcription script to convers ldap to opath address and email policy elements. Many thanlks for any hints
