The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Exchange Server, versions 4.0 and 5.0

SYMPTOMS

Windows NT Server 4.0 does not install all the code pages that may be required by Microsoft Exchange Server in order to support message traffic and client connectivity.

RESOLUTION

To add the code page(s):

  1. Use Windows Explorer to browse the Windows NT Server 4.0 compact disc.

  2. View the Langpack subdirectory.

  3. Select and right-click any of the available .inf files.

  4. Click Install.

  5. To verify that the code page has been successfully installed, in Control Panel Keyboard, click Input Locales, or click the Locales tab on the Exchange Server properties page.

The following Readme.txt is included in the Langpack subdirectory.

This directory contains files to add additional language support for Internet Explorer version 3.0 and Exchange Server version 4.0. To install these files, log on to an account with Administrator privilege, start the Windows NT Explorer and right-click on the .inf file named appropriately for the language or group of languages that you want to add support for. Then select the "Install" option from the menu. You will be prompted for your Windows NT CD. Some of the necessary files are in this directory (Langpack) and the remaining files are in the normal Windows NT distribution directories, I386.
