I'm getting this error and can not receive email from anywhere.
However I can send email OK. Its the receiving part.

I uninstalled the old exchange and put this into production and now can't receive mail.

All connectors are the default ones out of the box. All roles are on one system.


Migrate from 2007 to 2013 with no external access to legacy environment

$

0

Hi,

We're in the process of planning a migration to Exchange 2013 from a legacy 2007 system that currently has no external access for security reasons. The new system will allow ActiveSync connections for mobile devices to sync their mailboxes but I'm not sure about the steps required to provide this feature.

I've used the "Exchange Server Deployment Assistant" and can follow the steps to getting the new 2013 servers installed but am not sure if we can allow access to their 2007 mailboxes via ActiveSync from the 2013 CAS servers?

The document seems to suggest that the 2013 CAS will re-direct ActiveSync connections to the 2007 mailbox server but I'm not sure if this happens externally (in which case we'd need to "open up" the legacy servers) or internally which would be the preferred method?

Any ideas?

Cheers for now

Russell

 

Cannot open mailbox ... cn=Microsoft System Attendant

Hello,

I've recently introduced an Exchange Server 2013 in a single Exchange 2007 Server environment.

While most things seem to work out of the box, I have some issues:

When I use the Get-CalendarProcessing cmdlet on a mailbox hosted on the Exchange 2007 server or go inExchange admin center > recipients > resources, I get this error message:Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Storage.ConnectionFailedTransientException: Cannot open mailbox /o=<org>/ou=Exchange Administrative Group (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT)/cn=Configuration/cn=Servers/cn=<server>/cn=Microsoft System Attendant. ---> Microsoft.Mapi.MapiExceptionNetworkError: MapiExceptionNetworkError: Unable to make connection to the server. (hr=0x80040115, ec=-2147221227)

Another problem is that, when I navigate toOutlook Web App > People and try to search the directory, I get this:An error occured while searching. Please try again.

Same problem there:New mail > To: > Search Contacts and Directory: Can't connect. Please try again later.

And last but not least: I can’t connect Outlook to the Exchange 2013 server, unless I add the "DS Server" entry in [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Exchange\Exchange Provider]

 

Any help would be highly appreciated!

Hi everyone,

I am currently experiencing issues when running the HCW, which throws the following error at the very end:

We currently have a deployment of Exchange 2007 and 2013 servers across the world (coexistence between the two is working fine). At the moment, I am trying to configure 3 Exchange 2013 servers in London as our Hybrid servers (these servers are multi-role and also host users mailboxes).

Manually running Get-WebServicesVirtualDirectory takes ages to run as it is normal in global deployments.

Initially, Exchange 2007 servers were not members of the Exchange Trusted Subsystem group (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2995725/en-us). However, after fixing this, the issue remains.

All requirements for hybrid are in place (certificate, virtual directories on the hybrid servers are configured correctly and available externally, DNS, etc). I ran the Hybrid Configuration Diagnostic tool but none of the warnings are relevant for this.

Any help is much appreciated! Thank you so much.

Best regards,
Nuno

Exchange 2013 Hybrid setup & DNS

$

Greetings!  We currently have an Exchange 2010 on prem environment and I have been tasked with getting us into a hybrid state with O365.  We already have the tenet portions set up, AD Sync working, etc.  My initial thought was to just use our existing Exchange 2010 servers for the hybrid role, however, upon research it appears that standing up new Exchange 2013 servers specifically as hybrid servers is the suggested route.

My main goal is to do this hybrid deployment with as little impact and change to our environment (and thus user impact) as possible.  From what I have read, I will have to change the autodiscover and ews records to point to the new Exchange 2013 servers.  Is it also the case that I will have to redirect OWA to the Exchange 2013 servers?  Is there any way to deploy Exchange 2013 hybrid servers in a way that I do not have to change owa, autodiscover, etc? 

Thanks in advance!

We have a couple of iPhone users reported they were having calendar items disappear from their calendars. Many suggest to enable Calendar Repair Assistant for those users on mailbox servers. We are running Exchange 2010 SP2 RU7.  Do you know if there's any impact like performance when enabling Calendar Repair Assistant ? What's your best practice? Thanks in Advance !!

Migrating to Exchange 2013 from 2007. In Coexistence and receiving routine event errors.

$

We are in the process of upgrading our Exchange environment to 2013 and are currently running 2013/2007 in coexistence. The 2013 server has only 4 mailboxes on its database that we are testing with before migrating everyone and taking 2007 offline. The server is running Mailbox and CAS roles. Currently mail flow is working, but we receive the following event errors routinely. Also, OWA works but the login is slow. I’m looking to get these ironed out before moving over users. Any insight is greatly appreciated because I'm stumped. I have managed Exchange since version 5 and this is the first time I've had issues that were not easily resolved.

Exchange 2013+Wildcard SSL=External URL not working

$
0
0

Hello,

We have 1 Exchange 2013 server sitting in the company LAN.

hostname: exch.domain.com

CNAME is configured as mail.domain.com and internal clients can connect to both

External clients cannot access our OWA via HTTPS. Internally all services are working fine and users are able to access OWA.

When a client connects to 

https://mail.domain.com/owa - accessed from an Internet - does not work

https://mail.domain.com/owa - accessed from an LAN - works fine

Diagnostics so far:

Wireshark:

External client connects and sends ClientHello packet but server is not responding with ServerHello. Clients retry several times and then it's timing out. On a client's web browser, it shows "Cannot display the page"

ECP:

All  virtual directories have External URL configured with correct URL for example OWA has https://mail.domain.com/owa

"Configure external access domain" option: I cannot add my local exchange as CAS. When I click on save, it goes to blank boxes.

SSL

We use wildcard certificate from Comodo that has been regenerated already but it did not make any difference.

There are no SSL errors when exchange web services are access locally so I would assume that SSL is working fine.

Event logs

no SSL errors 

NAT/Network/Firewall

port 443 is open and mapped to the exchange server. Windows firewall is off.

I am sure that there is something obvious that I have been missing.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi,

I have the client tools (CU6) installed on one of my servers. I am trying to run the CU7 installation in order to update the server. As soon as setup finishes the Copying Files step I receive the following error message:

Any ideas how to troubleshoot this?

Unable to add replica of database

Had to rebuild a server from scratch after it failed in a DAG and was unable to recover it. Added it back to the DAG after using cluster manager to evict it. I was surprised because it was not showing in the DAG manager. Now, I am attempting to add a database copy to the rebuild server and the error is "log file on a removable disk" The server that holds it had two hard drives, and the database is no drive letter "E". Not sure what to do with it now.

thanks

Public folder migration cannot complete due to StalledDueToMailboxLock status

I'm on one of my last steps in migrating from 2010 to 2013.  When I issue the command to  Resume the migration request after the Autosuspend happens, I get a StalledDueToMailBoxLock, and it retries but never completes.  I've removed the request and tried it again, but I get the same thing.  The requests were 24 hours apart.  I have no clients that are connecting to the 2010 server anymore, and all the user mailboxes have been migrated to 2013 successfully.  I haven't found much online about this status, so I'm at a loss.  By the way, this is during my Public Folder migration process.  Sorry for leaving that out.

Thank you.



Exchange 2013 CU6 installation hangs on step 9: Languages

Just had Exchange 2013 CU6 update hang on Step 9 of 18: Languages.  It was stuck at 0% for almost an hour.  I was able to get it moving forward by disabling SCEP 2012 by killing the process and deselecting check certificate for server certificate revocation in IE.  Both steps were taken nearly simultaneously and the install process for Exchange jumped up immediately. Both steps were taken based on info from:

https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/exchange/en-US/2a346a37-d092-4189-8a07-e8a9971925f1/cu2-installation-hangs-on-step-9-languages?forum=exchangesvrdeploy

and

Just wanted to post that this issue was encountered on CU6 as well.  Has anyone had a similar experience or able to tell which of these two steps (or both) is actually needed?

2013 server reporting edge server not on 2007 SP3, when it is.

$

I am attempting to put in a 2013 server in an environment that has 2007. The pre-req check fails saying one of the edge servers is not on SP3, but it is.

When doing a get-exchangeserver |fl name,admindisplayversion, The internal servers all show 8.3.6

When I do the same thing on the edge server, it shows 8.2 (build 176.2) for itself. That is the only place it shows it is 8.2. Everywhere else, including exsetup, it shows the correct 8.3 version number. I can also see that SP3 RU14 is installed on the edge server.

I have a maintenance window to redo the edge subscription this weekend, however I'm not sure if that will fix anything, since it's the edge server that is not able to identify it's own installed version.

How can I get the AdminDisplayVersion on the Edge server to show the correct SP that is installed?

Recently, we moved Active Directory Certificate Services off of our exchange server and onto a dedicated ADCS box. We kept the same CA name, however the server name changed. After migrating the database and configuration from the old server to the new one, we are now getting the status 'Revocation check failed' with our exchange certificates. We are on Server 2012 R2 with Exchange 2013.

PKIView.msc:
CA Certificate = OK
AIA Location #1 = OK
CDP Location #1 = OK
DeltaCRL Location #1 = OK

Netsh command shows Exchange is not behind a proxy.

Cant move mailbox back to exchange 2007 from 2013 ..

I recently configured coexistence between exchange 2007 and 2013.

I have moved some users to 2013 and they are fine.

I recently moved "BESADMIN" account to exchange 2013 while trying to integrate exchange 2013 with BES. The integration is suspended for now and I am trying to move the mailbox back to 2007. From ECP it completes successfully but running get-mailbox cmdlt shows that the mailbox is still in 2013.

I have also tried using management shell but it fails at 95%

I will appreciate all the help I can get here ..
