The Operation Failed Error Synchronizing EIOBoard Calendar With Outlook

This article addresses the issue where you get an error message saying “The operation failed” when attempting to synchronize your EIOBoard Calendar with your Outlook Calendar. The error will look similar to the following:
Message: The operation failed.
ExceptionType: HelperLibrary.PException
Source: EIOBoardLibrary
StackTrace: at
EIOBoardLibrary.Sync.SyncOutlook.GetAppointmentOccurences(String id,
DateTime start, DateTime end, MAPIFolder mapifolder)

InnerException>>
Message: The operation failed.
ExceptionType: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException
Source: Microsoft Outlook
StackTrace: at
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook._AppointmentItem.get_EntryID()
at EIOBoardLibrary.Sync.SyncOutlook.GetAppointmentOccurences(String
id, DateTime start, DateTime end, MAPIFolder mapifolder)

This error indicates that EIOBoard is unable to read the Outlook appointment. If this error persists, we recommend doing a repair/reinstall of Outlook/Office.
