SYMPTOMS
When you use the Migration wizard (Mailmig.exe) to migrate users from
either Microsoft Mail or cc:Mail to Microsoft Exchange Server the following
error message may appear:
The address book is unavailable. Check that the Microsoft Exchange
Server is still available.
When you checking the Application event log, you may find the following
event as well:
Event ID: 145
Source: MSExchangeMig
Description: Error Configuring the profile for Account: Microsoft System
Attendant.
CAUSE
During the migration process, it is necessary for the System Attendant to
log on as the users being migrated in order to perform certain tasks such
as moving messages or personal address book entries and so on. In order to
log on, the System Attendant must create a temporary profile and configure
that profile. To create a profile, the migration wizard makes some calls
into the Emsui(32).dll, which by default resides in the
%Systemroot%\System(32) directory.
If the user running the migration wizard does not have access to
Emsui(32).dll or access to the directory it resides in, the aforementioned
events may be encountered.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, grant the user running the migration wizard access
to Emsui(32).dll:
- Give the user access to the directory where Emsui(32).dll resides.
-OR-
- Copy Emsui(32).dll to the directory where Mailmig.exe is (by default,
this is in the Exchsrvr\Bin directory)
