OCS 2007 - address book sync erros

[Billie]

I have OCS 2007 on Server 2003 with SP2. I get the below error with my OCS 2007 install:

One or more phone numbers failed to normalize.

449 total numbers failed to normalize. They are listed in the text file: 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007\Web Components\Address Book Files\Files\Invalid_AD_Phone_Numbers.txt'

After searching for some information on the net I found that it was said to run ABsercer,exe dumprules to see all the address book rules. I did that and it is only showing me the international rules:

##
## INTERNATIONAL

#
# +dd dddd... Xddddd
#

\++(\d+)([\s()\-\./]+(\d+))?([\s()\-\./]+(\d+))?([\s()\-\./]+(\d+))?([\s()\-\./]+(\d+))?([\s()\-\./]+(\d+))?([\s()\-\./]+(\d+))?([\s()\-\./]+(\d+))?([\s()\-\./]+(\d+))?([\s()\-\./]+(\d+))?([\s()\-\./]+(\d+))?\s*[Xx]+(\d{1,15})[\s]*+$1$3$5$7$9$11$13$15$17$19$21;ext=$22

\++(\d+)([\s()\-\./]+(\d+))?([\s()\-\./]+(\d+))?([\s()\-\./]+(\d+))?([\s()\-\./]+(\d+))?([\s()\-\./]+(\d+))?([\s()\-\./]+(\d+))?([\s()\-\./]+(\d+))?([\s()\-\./]+(\d+))?([\s()\-\./]+(\d+))?([\s()\-\./]+(\d+))?[\s]*+$1$3$5$7$9$11$13$15$17$19$21

Can anyone tell me from there rules are coming? Thanks.

I think that it's a common issue that is usually related to some mis-configuration or deviation from the deployment guide's recommendations. Go through the following link to check if the address book server setting is right or not:
