 * Microsoft Exchange Client 5.5

This article was previously published under Q140954



SYMPTOMS
After you modify the Setup.stf and Default.prf files of the Microsoft Exchange client for Windows 3.x network installation share point using the Microsoft Exchange Setup Editor, subsequent attempts to perform workstation installs in silent mode, setup /q, fail to create a default profile but complete without any errors.



CAUSE
The silent mode setup, setup /q, fails to copy Default.prf into the :\ subdirectory during the file copy phase. The absence of this file prevents Newprof.exe from creating a default profile.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft Exchange Windows 3.x client version 4.0. This problem was corrected in Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0 U.S. Service Pack 2. For information on obtaining the service pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces):
