May Start in Offline Mode if Server .CAL File Is Missing (147536)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Schedule+ for Windows 7.0
  • Microsoft Exchange Client 4.0
This article was previously published under Q147536
7.00 WINDOWS kbenv

SYMPTOMS

When you use Schedule+ with the Microsoft Exchange Windows 3.x client, Schedule+ may start in offline or stand-alone mode.

NOTE: Under normal usage Schedule+ should always start in a group-enabled mode when your machine is attached to a network.

CAUSE

If the server-based .CAL file is deleted, Schedule+ may start in offline mode. Schedule+ looks for the server-based .CAL file to insure that both the local and server copies are synchronized. However, if the server copy is missing, then Schedule+ looks for the appropriate mail transport .DLLs to make a connection to the server.

Because the paths to the Microsoft Exchange client and Schedule+ are sometimes different, it is possible that Schedule+ will never find the transports and will start in stand-alone mode.

WORKAROUND

The first time you restart Schedule+ after you remove the server-based .CAL file, start the Microsoft Exchange client first.
