Hi @Lina Leduc,
Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A forum.
I would like to provide you with the following information:
Based on the OWA error logs you provided, error code 404 and esrc: StartupData commonly indicate that the mailbox object has been disabled, even though the user account in Entra ID (Azure AD) still appears to be active.
In these cases, the user can still sign in normally at the identity layer. However, Exchange Online treats the mailbox as terminated or disabled, which causes Outlook and Outlook on the web (OWA) to fail to load the mailbox.
In this situation, you need to contact the tenant administrator to perform the following checks:
- Check whether the mailbox is disabled
Get-Mailbox ******@domain.com | fl AccountDisabled
If the result shows AccountDisabled : True, this behavior aligns with the AccountTerminationException error.
- Re-enable the mailbox
Set-Mailbox ******@domain.com -AccountDisabled $false
- (Optional) Identify other disabled mailboxes
Get-Mailbox -ResultSize Unlimited | Where-Object { $_.AccountDisabled -eq $true }
After re-enabling the mailbox, ask the user to try signing in again to Outlook on the web.
While waiting for the administrator to complete the checks, you can try the following steps:
- Sign out of all Microsoft sessions
-
- Clear the browser cache Press: Ctrl + Shift + Delete > Clear now
- Open the browser in InPrivate / Incognito mode to check whether the issue is related to browser extensions
- Press: Ctrl + Shift + N
- If the issue does not occur in Incognito mode, try disabling browser extensions such as ad blockers, VPNs, etc.
I hope this information helps. Please try the steps and let me know whether they resolve the issue. If the problem persists, we can work together to find a solution.
As other users will also search for information in this community, your vote can significantly help those with similar inquiries quickly locate the most relevant resources.
