XCLN: ErrMsg: Mapi32.dll Is Missing or Corrupted (198289)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Outlook 98 Deployment Kit
- Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5
This article was previously published under Q198289 SYMPTOMS
While you install Outlook 98 using the Outlook Deployment Kit (ODK), the
installation appears to complete successfully. However, when you attempt to
start the client, you receive the following error message:
MAPI32.DLL is missing or corrupted
CAUSE
Because Mapi32.dll is already in use by another application, the updated
version of this file could not be copied over the previous version
installed by Outlook 97. As a result, several other .dll files required by
Outlook 98 are not installed either. Because the file is in use at the time
of installation, it is considered locked open by the Setup program, and
cannot be overwritten with the newer version of these files.
RESOLUTION
Close any programs that may be using Mapi32.dll, like Outlook or the
Exchange client, before running Setup from the Outlook Deployment Kit
either manually or through a login script.
