following error message:

  An error occurred while generating the offline address book... ID no:c1031662

  Description:
  Generation of the offline Address Book is complete. Result: The required MAPI
  profile cannot be created because the file MAPISVC.INF cannot be modified.

CAUSE
=====

The Exchange Server service account does not have appropriate rights to the
Winnt/System32 folder.

Give the Service account full control rights to the System32 folder.

Administrator group on member servers, or the Domain Administrator group on
domain controllers.
