At our office we use a terminal server for the UI side and an application server where databases, appservers and progress batch sessions run.
Both servers run on Windows server 2008 and OpenEdge 11.2 (32-bit). Also installed is Office 2010 (32-bit).
The progress batchsessions are triggered by the Windows TaskScheduler.
One of these runs every 10 minutes to check for mail. Therefore it starts an outlook session in the background and performs the read and processing of the inbox of a specific account.
Now we intend to move to Windows server 2019, OpenEdge 11.7 (32 bit) and Office 2016 (32-bit).
To accomplish this we set up 2 new servers from scratch and copied progress DB's and sources and everything needed from the existing servers.
Problem now is that the batchsession fails with an error when it tries to setup a outlook connection:
CREATE "Outlook.Application" chOutlook NO-ERROR.
Error: Error while creating / connecting Automation Server for: Outlook.Application. Server execution failed Errornumber: 0x80080005 ConnectOutlook abaweb.p (5894)
I've searched the Progress Knowledge base but all I can find is that it wouldn't be possible to run outlook from a batchsession, or more specific, from within a non-UI configuration.
But within the non-UI server2008/Office2010 environment it works perfectly!
Anyone have a clue??
