I have a user who is running Outlook 2007 (RTM) and somehow her outlook.pst
file got corrupted. I have tried running scanpst.exe both on the file as it sits on the server (we have redirected most user folders to the server), as well as copying the file to the hard drive and trying to run scanpst on it there. I've also tried the alternating scandisk/scanpst solution, which has not yielded results either. The process always fails at the same point, just after step 6 of 8 completes, with a dialog box that simply indicates that an error has occured and the scan process failed to complete - no changes were made to the original file. The file is only 119MB, so it's not the 2GB issue, nor will that tool truncate the file anyway since it's so small. Is there anyway to fix this, any other steps I could possible take? Outlook would not launch due to the corruption, so I have moved the corrupt pst to another directory and created a new outlook.pst so that the user is at least able to send and receive new e-mail, though all of her existing messages are gone. -- "Hurricane" Andrew Milford, DE |
