XADM: Event 1029 Occurs When Migrating cc:Mail Users (184391)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5

This article was previously published under Q184391

SYMPTOMS

When you attempt to migrate a user from cc:Mail using the Exchange 5.5 Migration Wizard, the migration may fail and the event log will contain an event 1029 with the following text:
   Invalid Token '6' found in the exported file. Token should have been
   'Message:'. Account '<lastname>, <firstname>' did not migrate
   successfully.
				

CAUSE

Export.exe (a cc:Mail executable) is used to extract user information from the cc:Mail mailbox. The Exchange Migration Wizard uses the output files produced by Export.exe to perform the migration. The Exchange Migration Wizard assumes all information blocks in the exported file will be separated by a carriage-return line-feed <CR><LF>. This assumption is incorrect.

STATUS
