SYMPTOMS
========
When you compose a new message or delete a message in Microsoft Exchange in
Windows 95, you may receive one of the following error messages if the Post
Office exists on a Novell NetWare server:
- File already created.
- File in use.
- Recipient's mailbag is busy or in use.
Or, when you are running the Microsoft Mail Admin tool, you may receive a message
stating that the FLAG.GLB or MASTER.GLB file is locked.
CAUSE
=====
These are network errors rather than Microsoft Exchange errors. The error
messages are caused by the failure of the network to close a file after the
application places its close file command. This problem can be due to a bad
packet, a faulty network adapter, poor cabling, or a switch or patch may be
necessary on the server.
RESOLUTION
==========
To correct this problem, use one of the following methods:
- Quit and restart Windows 95 to release the file.
- Use the Novell patch to fix the file locking problem. Obtain the CROPNFX.NLM
file from Novell. This file is dated 12/18/91 and has a size of 1040 bytes.
- Troubleshoot the problem as a network problem.
