SYMPTOMS
Depending on special circumstances, you may need to modify the default location of the qroot parameter in the Linkage\Exchconn.ini file. If you use a drive mapping (for example, QROOT=Z:\Exchconn), and then proceed to log off, the following error messages will occur in the event logs.

1997/09/20 05:14:10- LME-PROFS-DIAMEX(00df) 1 04067:{The filename was invalid}: Unable to open QCR file z:\exchconn\q\vm2mex.in\00000000.qcr in queue vm2mex.in

>> qm(7883)

1997/09/20 05:14:10- LME-PROFS-DIAMEX(00df) 1 04076:{The filename was invalid}: Unable to query current state of queue vm2mex.in

>> qm(8707)

1997/09/20 05:14:10- LME-PROFS-DIAMEX(00df) 1 04028:{The filename was invalid}: Unable to get next queue item from queue vm2mex.in - could not access QCR

>> qm(3193)

1997/09/20 05:14:10- LME-PROFS-DIAMEX(00df) 1 56106:{I/O error has occurred}: Could not read next queue item from vm2mex.in

>> dia2mex(1573)



CAUSE
The Microsoft Exchange Connectivity services are incorrectly using localized information.



WORKAROUND
Rather than using a drive mapping, specify a full Uniform Naming Convention (UNC) path to the actual location of the Qroot directory (for example, QROOT=\\ \Exchconn).
