Public Folders Not Available After 2003 to 2010 Migration

Hello All,

I have done a swing transition from Exchange 2003 to 2010. All the mailboxes moved over just fine and are working. I also did a move replica on the public folders which seem to have moved at the least according to Exchange System Manager in 2003 they are now located on the 2010 server.  In the 2010 managment console they appear just fine and suggest they are located on the 2010 public folder database.

The problem is that they do not appear in anyones Outlook. They do appear in OWA but generate an error to talk the adminiistrator when you try to access them.

Anyone have any suggestions?  Any help is appreciated.

Did you ever begin replicating the public folder?  You have to go in manually and select which folders to replicate form 2003 to 2010.  Is the old server still up?

I have moved replica as per this:

Old server is still online.
Before that step, you had to ensure that they were replicating.  In other words, id you right click on each public folder and select the new server database as a replication partner.
Did not do that.

This is a good guide. I am giving you points for posting it and closing this question. My issue is more complicated and Microsoft support is involved now.
