PRB: "Error 8002009 - MAPI_E_NOT_INITIALIZED 80040605" with CDO (1.x) (193451)

CAUSE

This error can be caused by having a CDO (1.1, 1.2, 1.21) action being performed on the session object before the Session.Logon method is executed.

Any of the following methods can cause this error to occur:

Session.InfoStores
Session.OutOfOffice
Session.OutOfOfficeText
Session.CurrentUser
Session.Name

RESOLUTION

The Logon method must be called before any other CDO (1.1, 1.2, 1.21) actions can be performed with the Session object prior to a successful logon. The only method that can be used before a successful logon is the SetLocaleIDs method of the Session object. In addition, you can access the Version property before a successful logon.

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

Create a new .asp page or create a Microsoft Visual Basic project.

If you are creating an .asp page, copy and paste the following code into the .asp file:

NOTE: If you are creating a Microsoft Visual Basic project, paste only the statements between <% and %> into the project, and remove the "Server" from the first "Set objSession = " line.

    <HEAD>
    <META NAME="GENERATOR" Content="Microsoft Visual InterDev 1.0">

      CONST strServer                             = <Valid ServerName>
      CONST strMailbox                            = <Valid MailboxName>

      Dim objSession
      Dim strProfileInfo

      strProfileInfo = strServer & vbLf & strMailbox
      Set objSession = Server.CreateObject("MAPI.Session")
      Response.Write(objSession.CurrentUser)

      objSession.Logon "", "", False, True, 0, True, strProfileInfo
      Response.Write("Logged into Mailbox as: " & objSession.CurrentUser _
           & "<br>")
      objSession.Logoff
