Data file corrupted

Office x 10.1.2
MAC OSX 10.2.8

After reading an abnormal message, Entourage can not access datefile any
more, rebuild failed due to read/write error(40).

Checked files ownership&permission, it is same as before.

More than 2G messages pass away?

Any suggestion from yours?


Thanks in advance,


Meng

Have a llok at the Entourage help page:
http://www.entourage.mvps.org/errors.html#anchor-error40

As you seem to say you Database might reach a 2 GB size,
make sur you have enough free space on your Hard drive:
when rebuilding, Entourage creates a copy, so you have to
have at least as much free space on you HD than needed
(and that would leave too few for Mac OS X to qork
properly afterwards).

If I remember well, from 10.1.2 on the max Database size
is now 4 GB. So this shouldn't be a limit. But, just in
case, you might as well apply the 10.1.4 and 10.1.5
(although Entourage is not concerned) updates first and
then re-try rebuilding (provided you have enough free
space on your HD).

Thanks the reply, I confused the office version, in fact it is 10.0, the
datebase almost 2G already.

After update office to 10.1.5, the problem solved.


Thanks,

Meng
