1.  Upgrade to 5.5, SP4.
2.  Are OWA and Exchange loaded on the same server?  If not, what shows up
in the IIS server logs?
3.  What version of IIS are you running?
4.  Are your OWA and Exchange servers running the same service packs?

AND...

5.  What has changed on your servers in the last week or so?  Everything
from Reg changes to Software installs/uninstalls to new hardware.

Subject: Cannot attach file in OWA


I've been pulling my hair out all morning trying to figure this out.

A client called me out to look at an OWA issue. For the past week or so, no
users can attach files to an email message using OWA. It's an Exchange 5.5
SP3 box running on NT4 SP6a. 

While composing a new message, a user switches to the Attachment tab. User
browses to the file to be attached and clicks Open. When they click "Add
attachment now", the image of the 2 folders with the paper flying from one
to the other appears, but nothing ever happens. I've been told they have let
this go overnight, and still nothing. No error message appears on the
client, just the graphic of the paper flying from one folder to another.

Here is some further info:

1. No errors appear in any of the event logs on the Exchange server 2. This
is the only Exchange server 3. Temp files are being created in the \Webtemp
folder 4. Permissions on the \Webtemp folder are set to Everyone - Full
Control 5. Application settings on the Exchange virtual directory is set to
Execute (including script) 6. As soon as an OWA client clicks the "add
attachment now" button, I can hear a beep coming from the Exchange server
(the "chord" wav file, if that makes a difference) 7. Norton antivirus is
running on the Exchange server. I have tried stopping the service
completely, which didn't help

I have searched the Microsoft KB and Google Groups inside and out, and
haven't found anything. Does anyone have a clue what could be going on?

Jason
