Hi.
I have following error reported:

System.ArgumentException: The value is outside the expected range.
bei AddinExpress.Outlook.IOutlookSecurityManager2.Connect(Object vTarget)
bei AddinExpress.Outlook.SecurityManager.ConnectTo(Object outlookApp)

The error occurs occasionally and disappears after application restart.

Hi Mykhaylo,

I suggest that you check if you pass an Outlook.Application object to the ConnectTo method. For instance, you can check if OutlookApp.Version DOES NOT produce exception; if there's no exception, then it is safe to pass it to the ConnectTo method.

I have ensured each access to Outlook.Application causes verifying whether instance is "alive". Since that no problem was reported however previously the problem was reported as stable. So I'll wait couple weeks and then let you know whether problem is solved.
Thank you.

The issue reoccured several times. Now it's ensured the Outlook.Application object is alive.
Strange thing is chronology:
[13.04.2012 17:02:43 | Debug] Error:

bei R.GoogleOutlookSync.OutlookUtilities.GetItemID(Object item)

bei AddinExpress.Outlook.SecurityManager.set_DisableOOMWarnings(Boolean value)

bei R.GoogleOutlookSync.SettingsForm.Sync_ThreadStarter()

So for me it appears the DisableOOMWarnings property was attempted to be set somewhere during executing OutlookUtilities.GetItemPropertyValue(). But indeed it's set only once much earlier.

Hi Mykhaylo,

"The RPC Server is not available." means Outlook is turned off or the Outlook item is moved/deleted.

I don't think so. But indeed, the situation looks strange. In http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.exception.aspx, they wrote:
When a causal relationship exists between two or more exceptions, the InnerException property maintains this information. The outer exception is thrown in response to this inner exception.


Is the outer exception thrown by your code as a reaction to the innre exception?

Is your code executed on a background thread?

That was my mistake. set_DisableOOMWarnings is called twice - disable before start and enable back on finish.
I can't confirm Outlook was or was not running during error happened. But I had same error ("The RPC Server is not available.") when Outlook was running. However in this case retry helped.
So I'll try that and let you know result. Thank you
