Excellent fix… but you really need to follow the link ‘Microsoft Support Article’ to find the three files in \i386\Fp40ext.cab (.rar file) and the extract directory (C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\40\bin) and then extract the files directly from the xp installation CD (or image file) into that folder. I had tried to install Office 2010 with the same error message, i figured maybe going back to 2007 would fix the problem, but apparently it is a problem with xp sp3 that it doesn’t install the Frontpage files into that bin directory. But a good fix if you can get that right.

I have the same problem,
despite I have successfully installed it all roles with no problem, I have formated the server and reinstall the exchange2007 to join 2003 AD and 2003 exchange and I got the same problem like you have.
any one can help with any information instead of reinstalling the server.

Tried your solution, but I had exchange server 2007 with SP2 in it, so maybe it wat the reason, why the rollup just didn’t want to install, saying the version is different or the program is not installed… =(
Got all the updates from microsoft, still the same picture – “the data area passed…”
Any ideas?

The very end of my installation would always fail “unable to start MSExchangeIS”, event logs showed “Unable to initialize the Microsoft Exchange Information Store service. Failed to find the working directory parameter from the registry – Error 0×80004005.”

Fix for this is outlined in this article: http://www.petri.co.il/errors_after_moving_exchange_stores_to_a_different_disk.htm

You need to use the path C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\Mailbox\MDBTEMP

Hi Amit,

So you installed the rollup update and did a full restart? As well as running the setup in modify / uninstall mode after the reset in compatibility mode, you must ensure to “run as administrator” also. This will then install the mailbox role and you should be good to go!

Cheers,
Ken
