Missing Or Damaged Configuration Settings Cause Errors While Connecting To Exchange Server

Microsoft Exchange Server is the most widely used server-side application

, in client server architecture, that is used to create collaborative messaging environment. It creates a user mailbox for every user, which can be accessed using Microsoft Outlook. A copy of mailbox is stored on client system to access it when you are not connected to Exchange Server. This is known as OST (Offline Storage File). When you connect to Exchange Server, the OST file automatically gets converted into PST (Personal Storage Table) after synchronization and it is updated. However, if synchronization can not complete successfully, OST to PST conversion fails. The OST file can not be updated after this.

As an example of OST file connectivity problem, you may face the below symptoms when you attempt to connect Microsoft Outlook 2007 to Exchange Server:

1)You encounter the underwritten error message if your Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 profile is configured automatically:

2)You may come across the below error message if your Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 profile is configured manually:

Your Microsoft Exchange Server is unavailable

For instance, the error might take place if Outlook has an existing user profile that was connected previously to Microsoft Exchange Server, and then the settings for default gateway is lost. In this case, when you click the Check Name option for verifying the settings in Email Accounts dialog box, the following error occurs:

Outlook cannot log on. Verify that you are connected to the network and are using the proper server and mailbox name. The connection to the Microsoft Exchange Server is unavailable. Your network adapter does not have a default gateway.
