Hi, I am trying to register store wide WebForms and also global events in the SystemMailbox of a clustered backend (Exchange 2003 sp2). When I try to access http://nodeName/exchange/SystemMailbox{guid}/##SchemaURI##/ I get HTTP error 400 invalid request. When I use clusterName instead of nodeName I get HTTP 404 file not found. I tried Mistaya to connect to the SystemMailbox and had no luck either. How do I access those system folders on a cluster? -- SvenC
Hello Sven, > I am trying to register store wide WebForms and also global events in > the SystemMailbox of a clustered backend (Exchange 2003 sp2). I don't know about webforms (haven't used them for years), but global event sinks are registered on this url: file://./backofficestorage/ADMIN/%2/MBX/SystemMailbox%1/StoreEvents/GlobalEvents/myevent.evt Where %2 must be replaced by the primary smtp domain and %1 with the GUID of the store you want to register this on. Myevent.evt just a name I made up, so choose whatever suits you best. You'll have to register this event on every store containing mailboxes that you want this sink to be active. Additionally, the Sink (the COM+ application) must be installed on all cluster nodes. > > I tried Mistaya to connect to the SystemMailbox and had no luck > either.

Hi Henning, >> I am trying to register store wide WebForms and also global events in >> the SystemMailbox of a clustered backend (Exchange 2003 sp2). > > I don't know about webforms (haven't used them for years), but global > event sinks are registered on this url: > file://./backofficestorage/ADMIN/%2/MBX/SystemMailbox%1/StoreEvents/GlobalEvents/myevent.evt Yes, I know that file:// url also but for WebForms one needs to use the ##SchemaURI## path which seemed to be unavailable. I digged around a bit more and found that my IIS was configured to listen only on the IP address of the quorum cluster resource and not the exchange one. After changing that the http access started working again. So I hope it is the same issue on the customers side. >> I tried Mistaya to connect to the SystemMailbox and had no luck >> either.
