OMA error: Directory 'M:<domain name>' does not exist

[ivow]

I'm running Exchange 2003 Ent on a Windows 2003 SP1 server and when I attempt to test my exchange oma by going to the

https://servername/oma

i get the following error:

Directory 'M:\sbrc.ca' does not exist. Failed to start monitoring file changes.


I thought the M: drive had gone away with Exchange 2003. Anybody had this error?

TIA

Fixed.
Using this article;

I added the M: drive to my Exchange 2003 server. It is not recommended but I needed the solution urgently.

Just had to do some tweaking after with the permissions to the /exchange-oma Virtual Directory and bingo! It fired up.
