Annoying issue - Outlook crash when secondary Exchange account receive calendar invite outside organization

I was researching about this issue for months, it's hard to find another usual scenario that got same error cause only few users have more than 1 exchange account configured on same outlook.

Tested scenarios:

2 exchange accounts on Windows 7 home, Office 2010 Professional
2 exchange accounts on Windows 7 professional (2 computers), Office 2010 Professional
2 exchange accounts on Mac OS 10.7, Office 2011 for Mac
2 exchange accounts on Mac OS 10.8, Office 2011 for Mac

Issue:

Outlook app crash some seconds before receive an external calendar invite.

Excluded possibilities:

It does not happens on first (default) exchange account on same profile
It does not happens on seccond exchange account if sent from another account is same organization
It's not a profile issue, application issue, OS issue or acount issue. All tests was generated using different servers and different accounts provided by Office 365.
I don't think that's a Office 365 issue, cause it happens only on secondary account and the configured settings is the same than default account.

Gererated application error:

For the Outlook crash issue, you may first run Outlook with safe mode.

Type "Outlook.exe /safe" in the search bar and press Enter.

If the issue is gone, please disable add-ons one by one to find the root.

Thanks.

When does it happen, when the second Exchange account receive the meeting invites? or when you accept it?

I would confirm whether the second Exchange account it the same account when you test. If so, recreated this calendar folder using MFCMAPI tool. Removed and re-added the delegate permission if necessary.

- When the account receives it (between 5 and 30 seconds after it).

I would confirm whether the second Exchange account it the same account when you test. If so, recreated this calendar folder using MFCMAPI tool. Removed and re-added the delegate permission if necessary.

- It's not, I made tests using different accounts, including new accounts created just for this diagnostic proccess, without any content/object on boxes


Aditional info: This issue is specific about foreign meeting invite on calendar, in the secondary account, and how Outlook deals with it. Outlook does not crash if I delete the meeting from calendar and does not delete the meeting notification from inbox, but it still crash if I delete the meeting notification from inbox and do not delete the event from calendar.

Try to start Windows with clean boot mode.

Or create a Windows User profile for testing.

Did u had success to reproduce this scenario?

No, using another profile, clean boot or safe mode had same problem, As I said, It happens too on MacOS, it's not a system or profile problem.

Hello, Any update?
August 20th, 2012 1:10am

Hi Tony, I'm having troubled to get this debug info, when I monitor the process using WinDbg x64 while working on Outlook, it gets the same infos when working fine and when crashed by this bug.

How can I catch this crash using AD Plus?

Hi there ,

I was experiencing same problems , one of this 2 solutions worked for me :

1. replacing  the computer or reformatting the current one.

2. working in cached mode (in exchange)

strange thing is that on the same configuration computer there is no problem while on the other computer the outlook is crashing after applying every meeting invitation .

best regards ,

Shimon.

I'm already using cached mode, and already tried in different computers, as I said, it happens in every single computer, including MacOS.

ICarlos,

Did you ever find a solution to this problem?

I know this problem wasn't solved yet, but since I had the same problem, decided to post here.

Having a similar problem at work, the only way that I was able to make this work was on the second account, disabling cached mode before opening Oulook, 2010 on my case, to not crash. Working for me so far for the last hour.
