Problem : MAPI couldn’t load the info service EMSMDB.DLL

When I start my outlook97, I get this message..  “Upload of offline changes could not be completed.  An unexpected error has occurred.  MAPI was unable to load the information service EMSMDB.DLL.  Be sure the service is correctly installed and configured.”


 

Solution: MAPI couldn’t load the info service EMSMDB.DLL

The following is from Microsoft knowledge base:

XCLN: Err Msg: MAPI Was Unable to Load Emsmdb.dll
Last reviewed: September 23, 1998

——————————————————————————–

The information in this article applies to:
Microsoft Exchange Windows 95 client, version 4.0

SYMPTOMS
The following error message appears:

The set of folders could not be opened. An unexpected error has
occurred. MAPI was unable to load the information service Emsmdb.dll. Be
sure the service is correctly installed and configured.

CAUSE
The error message references Emsmdb.dll, but the correct DLL, Emsmdb32.dll, does reside in the System directory. The wrong file is being referenced because the Wsock32.dll is not the right version; Wsock32.dll therefore references Emsmdb.dll instead of Emsmdb32.dll.

RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem:

Replace Wsock32.dll with the Windows 95 version.
