This issue occurs if the OAB system folders are not replicating to any Exchange server. The OAB system folders must replicate to at least one Exchange server. By default, the first Exchange server in the organization contains the OAB system folders replica. However, the OAB system folders may not replicate to any Exchange server if the following conditions are true:

• The first Exchange server in the organization is decommissioned incorrectly.
• The replica list is blank after the name of this server is removed from the replica list.

To resolve this issue, replicate the OAB system folders to at least one Exchange server. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Click Start, point to All Programs, point to Microsoft Exchange, and then click System Manager.
2. In the administrative group that hosts the folder hierarchies, expand Folders.
3. Right-click Public Folders, and then click View System Folders.
4. Expand Public Folders, and then expand OFFLINE ADDRESS BOOK.
5. Right-click the first subfolder in the Offline Address Book folder, and then click Properties.
6. On the Replication tab, click Add, and then select the Exchange server or the Exchange servers where you want the OAB to be replicated.
7. Click OK two times.
8. Expand the folder to which you just added the replica, and then repeat steps 5 through 7 for each subfolder in that folder.
9. Repeat steps 5 through 8 for each subfolder in the Offline Address Book folder. Alternatively, you can wait for the OAB system folders to automatically propagate the settings to the subfolders in the Offline Address Book folder.
