PC DB: Err Msg: The Folder Conversion Process Was Halted...Last reviewed: March 28, 1996Article ID: Q121717 |
The information in this article applies to:
SYMPTOMSWhen you try to run the CONVERT.EXE program as described on page 17 of the version 3.2 Microsoft Mail for PC Networks "User's Guide" for Windows and Presentation Manager, you may receive the following error message:
The folder conversion process was halted by an error while copying. No folders or messages were converted. CAUSEThis error occurs when some or all of your folders are stored on the local hard disk drive rather than on the postoffice. The Convert program is designed to look for a user's folders on the postoffice and will not check any local drives or directories.
RESOLUTIONThe Mail administrator can move the folders back onto the postoffice by logging in to Mail with the MS-DOS client, selecting Options, Folders, Private-Storage, and then selecting S for Server. You can then run Convert again; it will perform the conversion successfully.
MORE INFORMATIONFolder corruption can cause a similar problem. In this case, try archiving the folders and then retrieving them. If any of the folders cannot be archived, the Mail administrator may need to use the FIXFLD.EXE utility to try to repair them. FIXFLD.EXE is available to Mail administrators as part of Application Note WA0641, "Database Maintenance Utilities." You can obtain this Application Note by contacting Microsoft Product Support Services.
