XADM: Errors Processing Incoming Replication Messages

 Last reviewed: April 21, 1997
Article ID: Q140448
The Information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Exchange Server, version 4.0

SYMPTOMS

When you try to select the system folders from the Microsoft Exchange Administrator program the following error may occur: 

   An internal processing error has occurred: naming violation. Try
   restarting the Administrator Program or the Microsoft Exchange Server
   computer, or both.

   Microsoft Exchange Directory
   ID No: DS_E_NAMING_VILOATION
This will also be paired with an error in the Application Log. The application log message SOURCE will be the MSExchangeIS Public, the EVENT ID will be 3089, the CATEGORY will be Replication and Type will be Warning. The description will read as follows: 

   Error 0x8004010f occurred while processing an incoming replication
   message.

CAUSE

When you select the properties of a system folder, the Microsoft Exchange Administrator program is calling the Microsoft Exchange Directory (DS) and asking for a site id from a table in the database. The DS does not have an entry in that field to return and generates the above error messages.

STATUS
