APPLIES TO


 * Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 Standard Edition

This article was previously published under Q174743





SYMPTOMS
If you run Setup to install a Key Management (KM) server version 4.0 or 5.0 in a site that has a mix of version 4.0, 5.0, and 5.5 servers, Setup will fail with the following error message:

Unable to create Encryption-Cfg object in the site you are running

Setup. Verify the Microsoft Exchange Directory is running then try

again.



MORE INFORMATION
This is by design. This error occurs because Exchange Server version 5.5 Setup creates the encryption-cfg object for the site, and earlier versions of the KM server Setup program cannot utilize an existing version of this object.

Additional query words: KMS KM
