CAUSE
This problem occurs because the Display Name of the conferencing resource includes one or more special characters. Conferencing resources should not include any of the following special characters:
@ & ( ) { } / " ' - ~ ` ! $
In addition, Display Names for legal resources that contain a leading space, a trailing space, or a space anywhere in the middle of the Display Name cannot be scheduled by using Web Scheduler.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, rename the conferencing resource excluding any special characters.
STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server.
