Exchnage 2007 mailbox store that will not mount, error 1216, MapiExceptionJetErrorAttachedDatabaseMismatch
I'm working on a server that I have not maintained before that has a dismounted mailbox store in SBS 2008 (so it runs Exchange 2007). When I try to mount the store, I get:
Exchange is unable to mount the database that you specified. Specified database: SOLAR1\First Storage Group\Mailbox Database; Error code: MapiExceptionJetErrorAttac
I've run an eseutil /p and an eseutil /d on the database. I still get the same error.
If I run eseutil /mh, I get this:

Here's what I think I'm seeing - the database isn't mounted because Exchange seems to think the database isn't in the proper folder (see event id 494 above). However, the database is clearly there. See screen shot below. Any ideas on what to try next? I'm a rookie at Exchange database recovery. Minus eseutil, I've never had to run anything really.

Damn - that was easy. I removed all the log files and then checked the box to allow the database to be overwritten by a restore and voila, the mailbox store mounted.
I had exactly the same today and just by moving the log files and marking the database to be overwritten by a restore does the magic.
Thank you so much. I really appreciate.
Thank you so much. I really appreciate.
I did the same steps as mention above and MY DATABASE mount and production Exchange server working Fine now. Thanks a lot for the for your informative steps & procedure..
just keep only the .edb file and move all the log files to another folder and try mounting the stores.
Please check it out and revert back if you have any issues.
