Symptoms

On a client computer, you configure proxy server connection settings for Windows Internet Explorer and you add your Client Access Server (CAS) servers to the Exceptions list. You run Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 by using a profile for a mailbox whose credentials differ from the credentials that you used to log on to Windows. In this case, when you try to open the Out of Office Assistant in Outlook 2007, you may receive the following error message:

Your Out of Office settings cannot be displayed, because the server is currently unavailable. Try again later.

Note This problem occurs only for domain users and only when you specify your CAS servers in the Exceptions list. You do not receive this error in either of the following scenarios:

  • You log on to Windows by using the local user credentials.

  • You log on to Windows as a domain user, but you do not specify your CAS servers in the Exceptions list.

Cause

This problem occurs because the credentials that are passed to the CAS server are your Windows logon credentials instead of the credentials that you used to log on to the mailbox in Outlook 2007. Because the Windows credentials do not match the credentials for the mailbox, the CAS server returns an error code of 500. The error code of 500 is not an authentication error. For example, error code 401 is an authentication error. Therefore, no other authentication methods are tried.

Resolution

To resolve this problem, apply the Outlook 2007 hotfix package that is date April 30, 2009, and then set a value for the WinhttpAuth registry entry. To have us set this value for you automatically, go to the "Fix it for me" section. If you’d rather set the value yourself, go to the "Let me fix it myself" section.

Fix it for me

To set this value automatically, click the Fix this problem link. Then click

NoteThis wizard may be in English only. However, the automatic fix also works for other language versions of Windows.

Note If you are not on the computer that has the problem, you can save the automatic fix to a flash drive or to a CD so that you can run it on the computer that has the problem.
