PRB: ACL/Rules Samples and Some CDO Apps May Fail Installing Exch Server 5.5 SP2

• Collaboration Data Objects (CDO), version 1.21

SYMPTOMS

After installing the Exchange Server 5.5 Service Pack 2, rules and access control list (ACL) samples return the following error when selecting a Public Folder object:

Unable to Create ACL object. Error Number : 8004010F Error Description : [Collaboration Data Objects - [MAPI_E_NOT_FOUND(8004010f)]]

CAUSE

A second parameter was not passed in the call to the GetFolder method.

RESOLUTION

Modify the sample(s) to pass the second parameter using either a valid store ID or NULL. To find the correct instance of the GetFolder method, search for "GetFolder" in the CDO.inc file of the Rules and ACL samples.

MORE INFORMATION

This issue will affect any CDO code that calls the GetFolder method without passing either NULL or a valid store ID as the second parameter provided that the Exchange Server 5.5 Service Pack 2 is installed.

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

1. Run ACL Sample (ACLASP) or the Rules sample (RulesASP).



2. When prompted, select public folders.



3. Choose any existing folder.



4. The following error message appears:

   Unable to Create ACL object. Error Number : 8004010F Error Description : [Collaboration Data Objects - [MAPI_E_NOT_FOUND(8004010f)]]
