Can't migrate Public Folders from Exchange 2010 to 2013

I'm following the procedure as per this Microsoft article:

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj150486(v=exchg.150).aspx

However at the New-PublicFolderMigrationRequest step (step 5 - migrate Exchange 2010 folders)  I'm getting the error at bottom.  Anybody know what could be causing this?  It certainly seems to be able to access ATLAS.  I've tried using atlas.es.tv, tried using just the name of the PF DB, nothing works.

Ron,

 On your old Exchange server do you have a mailbox database mounted?

If not create a new MB database let AD replicate then try the Public Folder migration again.

Hope this help.

Thanks a lot MikeVATX!

After the user's migration I delete all the Mailboxdatabases... I create a new one just for the Public Folder migration and It works!

Just to clarify the mailbox needs to be created on the legacy server. I ran into the same issue. As soon as I created the mailbox database on the legacy server I was able to create the migration batch for public folders. Very strange. PS was going to dig more.
