Just downloaded Exchange 2013 trial and I'm following the TechNet article "Exchange 2013 Post-Installation Tasks" (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124397(v=exchg.150).aspx) step-by-step to the letter and ran into a brick wall at Step 5(b) -- Configure internal and external URLs to be the same. I was able to define the host name....
$HostName = "Ex2013CAS"
of my client access server, but when I tried to set the URL (both internal/external) for ECP Virtual Directory....
Set-EcpVirtualDirectory "$HostName\ECP (Default Web Site)" -InternalUrl ((Get-EcpVirtualDirectory "$HostName\ECP (Default Web Site)").ExternalUrl)
I get this error:
"The operation couldn't be performed because object 'Ex2013CAS\ECP (Default Web Site)' couldn't be found on <my domain controller>
CategoryInfo: NotSpecified: (:) [Get-EcpVirtualDirectory], ManagementObjectNotFoundException
FullyQualifiedErrorId: 842B1240.Microsoft.Exchange.Management.SystemConfigurationTasks.GetEcpVirtualDirectory
PSComputerName: <my Exchange 2013 server>
I skipped this and went on to the next one which sets my Web Services Virtual Directory, and the same message appeared, same thing with Active Sync, etc. all the way down the line.
So far configuration seems pretty straightforward even to a newcomer like me. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks a lot for taking the time to read this!
