Exchange 2010 install error 1603

Environment: Windows Server 2K8, Exchange 2K10
This is the first exchange server I'm trying to install. I get to copying files in the installer and it dies with exchangeserversetup.msi error code 1603.
I look in the install logs and it says Error in rollback skipped, no system restore sequence number for this installation
I've check the CRL in internet options and that's turned off.
Any ideas?

So, does anybody know why this happens? . I have the same problem:
-Windows 2008 R2.
-Exchange 2010 Enterprise 6-month trial , copied to my local drive first, and launched the installation from c:
-The message error is the same.
I tried all of what is mentioned above:
1- rollup.
2- Copying the installation files to the local disk.
In my case, a file is missing in the installation folder, and it is true, I can't see that file, but I downloaded from Microsoft, just three days ago.

Exchange 2010 install corrupted, need help to remove and reinstall

Completed a fresh install of Exchange 2010 on Windows Server 2008 R2, the install went without any issues, however when opening either the EMC or EMS there is no access, continue to get the following errors in the event log.

I have attempted to reregister the dll and also to replace it however it did not solve the issue, the instance of Exchange can not find the server and or the database on startup. I have attempted to uninstall all the Exchange rolls and have been able to
remove all but the mailbox and Management Tools, when I do I receive this:

Since I do not have access to EMS and can not perform any of the necessary requirements to remove the mailbox role and uninstall all of exchange and attempt a reinstall.
Any help with this would be most appreciated.

Thank you for the reply, I have checked the applicationHost.config as indicated, and the path shown is the same as in the error message, there is no D:\Exchange,Server\V14\Bin\ path, it is as indicated in the error D:\Exchange2010\Bin\. Here is the section
from that applicationHost.config file:
<add name="CertificateMappingAuthenticationModule" image="%windir%\System32\inetsrv\authcert.dll" />
            <add name="UrlAuthorizationModule" image="%windir%\System32\inetsrv\urlauthz.dll" />
            <add name="DigestAuthenticationModule" image="%windir%\System32\inetsrv\authmd5.dll" />
            <add name="IISCertificateMappingAuthenticationModule" image="%windir%\System32\inetsrv\authmap.dll" />
            <add name="IpRestrictionModule" image="%windir%\System32\inetsrv\iprestr.dll" />
            <add name="kerbauth" image="D:\Exchange2010\Bin\kerbauth.dll" />
As indicated in my post, I have replaced the kerbauth.dll from another functioning exchange 2010 installation and it has not corrected the issue.
At this point I am looking for a solution for removing the mailbox role and being able to complete the uninstall of exchange and perform a clean install.
Any additional help with this is very much appreciated.

Exchange 2010 - ActiveSync - Error:TooManyClientOperations

Hello,
For last 4 months, our mobile workforce is using ActiveSync access to Exchange 2010 in combination with McAfee Enterprise Mobility Management 12.0 that acts as an (kind of) ActiveSync proxy. Monitoring IIS logs on our Exchange CAS/MBX
server, I’ve noticed that one of our users recently started getting a lot of following errors:
Cmd=Sync&User=domain%5Cuser.name&DeviceId=SEC2FA0AC3DE555E&DeviceType=SAMSUNGSMG900F&Log=V121_LdapC1_RpcC24_RpcL63_Pk3978727234_Error:TooManyClientOperations_As:AllowedG_Mbx:server.domain.com_Throttle0_Budget:(A)Conn%3a0%2cHangingConn%3a0%2cAD%3a%24null%2f%24null%2f0%25%2cCAS%3a%24null%2f%24null%2f3%25%2cAB%3a%24null%2f%24null%2f0%25%2cRPC%3a%24null%2f%24null%2f1%25%2cFC%3a1000%2f0%2cPolicy%3aDefaultThrottlingPolicy%5Fcfff8eee-4334-
Mobile device has all the latest updates installed.
Searching Internet, only relevant article I managed to find is on Microsoft Exchange Japan blog:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchangeteamjp/archive/2014/07/24/3635022.aspx
As I cannot find any other reference on MaxNumberOfClientOperations, I am reluctant to make that change easily. I would also like to know is there any way to monitor what exactly is happening (e.g. I would like to have a way to get more
info on currently active operations that IIS log is reffering to).
Thanks, MiToZ

Hello Martin,
Thanks for answering. I am aware of Exchange Throttling Policy concept, but I am uncertain what is happening with this particular user and I am looking for ways to troubleshoot it further. Using ActiveSync troubleshooting script from Exchange Team Blog
(http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2012/01/31/a-script-to-troubleshoot-issues-with-exchange-activesync.aspx), I can
see that this user is not anywhere near our top users based on number of ActiveSync commands sent to our Exchange server. Is there any cmdlet, log or any other way that I could use to see currently (or at some point in time) active client
operations?
Thanks, MiToZ

Exchange 2010 install

In our lab I’m trying to install an Exchange 2010, on a W2k8 r2 64bit (physical hardware). I would like to join it to our Exchange 2003 Org.
Lab settings:
Single DC, this is the FSMO server, also the domain exchange account is in Enterprise and Schema Admins groups.
Two Exchange 2003 servers with 600 mailboxes.
On the new Exc2010 server prerequistes have been installed:
.Net 3.5.1
Office Filter Pack
NetTcp port set to auto
Import-Module ServerManager and Add-WindowsFeatures installed.
I’ve tried both Typical and Custon Installations, the Readiness Checks runs.
Organization Prereqs, Completed with a Yellow !
Warning:
Setup is goimng tp prepare for Exchange 2010 by using Setup /PrepareAD. No Exchange 2007 server roles have been detected….
This looks like a standard msg.
The next three completed successfully with Green checks
Mailbox role Prereq: Completed with Yellow !
Warning:

Again, this looks like a non-show stopper.
Continued with the Install. It stops at the Org Preparation, with error msg.

I was having a very similar problem and none of the above recommendations or solutions were working for me. I was able to install Exchange2007, but NOT 2010 I had extracted the ISO, (*exchange2010sp1), local to the member server I was going to
be installing to and was consistently failing on 'setup /PrepareSchema', with this error:

What worked for me was one of our IT guys had an MSDN subscription and downloaded Exchange 2010sp2, which I guess was just recently released. I read in another post someone, also experiencing this issue, was able to install the RTM Exchange2010
and then apply the SP, so this most likely would have worked for me as well. The ISO with SP1 failed to install for me in 3 different Active Directory Test Lab environments, with different hardware, different versions of Windows for the Domain
controllers, different AD Levels and on both physical and Virtual member servers.   I've included all of the failure text above in the hopes that anyone searching on this, will come up with my post and save a few brain cells in getting this resovled
because it really shouldn't be this difficult to find an answer that would appear to be something simple to report accurate on in a log or failure entry.
Good luck, and take care

Exchange 2010 Installation error

Hi All,
I'm at my over 10th installation of Exchange 2010 server and it is the first time I have to admit that I can't resolve the issue i'm faced off ;-)
Here is some info about my issue. The installation is on a Windows 2008 R2 (Virtual) sit on a Windows 2012 R2 server with Hyper-V and it is a fresh vanilla installation that I'm trying to install for the 3rd time. Each attempts returned me the same error
at the same steps.
The Exchange installation is a typical, common, CAS, Mailbox and HUB installation without any particular configuration in the setup.
Here is the error I get:

I Googled every single point of failure indication and I didn't get reliable fix or work around.
I used ADSI edit to see if the IIS folders are there and yes they are except the EWS one which is mentioned in
the error message. Forest, Domain and AD have been prepared as it should, DCDIAG doesn't return any problem and the security has been set
properly for Legacy migration with an Exchange 2003 organisation.

I appreciate the time anybody would spend to help me with my issue

Well, here is a status of what I did.
After running the Cleanup tool, I ran the Exchange server setup again without re installing anything and I got the same error and I have found .NET issue in the application's event logs (Event ID 1111 .NET runtime optimization service with this error code:
- Error code 0x80029c4a =
Cannot Load Library); . Why that? because there still Windows Kernel Mode and User Mode .NET 1.11.
So I uninstalled them and ran the exchange setup again. It failed a the same point but nothing in the application log that time.
Going further to see if it is a .NET issue, I re installed from Windows Update the .NET
1.11 packages (Which are required prior to reinstall .NET 4.5) restart the server + re install version 4.5.1 and ran the setup again without the two available security patches for .NET 4.5.1. Guess what, same issue. No .NET error and no specific or related
log except the Exchange setup installation error.
From the MSExchange Management log, i have found that 2 errors are logged each time I run the setup:
Cmdlet failed. Cmdlet Install-ClientAccessRole, parameters {DomainController=powerhouse.parasuco.com, UpdatesDir=E:\Updates, ExternalCASServerDomain=webmail.parasuco.com}.
Cmdlet failed. Cmdlet New-WebServicesVirtualDirectory, parameters {WindowsAuthentication=True, WSSecurityAuthentication=True, InternalNLBBypassUrl=https://mtl1ex01.parasuco.com/ews/exchange.asmx, DomainController=powerhouse.parasuco.com, Force=True, GzipLevel=High}.
So it seems to me to be a IIS and security issue. Again, All other IIS virtual folders have been created without any problem. Why does the setup can't create the EWS one???

Exchange 2010 install with Exchange 2013 present

Good day,
I have an Exchange 2010 SP3 instance, I then added a Exchange 2013 installation, the 2010 Exchange needs to be rebuilt due to space issues on the current host and moving the 2010 Exchange will require too much downtime.
The issues that I am running into is when installing the new instance of 2010 on the new host with the Exchange 2010 x64 SP1 ISO, I am met with the following error:
[08/22/2014 07:09:03.0912] [1] 0. ErrorRecord: The object is read-only because it was created in a version of Exchange later than Exchange 0.20 (15.0.0.0). Current supported version is 0.10 (14.0.100.0).
[08/22/2014 07:09:03.0912] [1] 0. ErrorRecord: Microsoft.Exchange.Data.InvalidObjectOperationException: The object is read-only because it was created in a version of Exchange later than Exchange 0.20 (15.0.0.0). Current supported version is 0.10 (14.0.100.0).
After some reading I understand that Exchange 2010 must include SP3 to co-exist with Exchange 2013, all the roles have installed without any issues except the client access role, I get the above mentioned error, thus I cant upgrade to SP3.
I came across a solution where the OAB needs to be removed and then re-created, but unfortunately this will cause too much issues as the OAB is always in use.
So I am stranded where I need 2010 SP3 to install the server, but as far as I know there is no 2010 ISO with SP3 available.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Regards,
Hendrik

"So I am stranded where I need 2010 SP3 to install the server, but as far as I know there is no 2010 ISO with SP3 available."
I'm not sure I understand this? If you download Exchange 2010...
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=36768
That *is* the SP3 version.
Otherwise, if you install Exchange 2013 (with no other Exchange 2010 servers present), you definitely cannot add 2010 servers after the fact.
http://forums.petri.com/showthread.php?t=64056
But if you started with 2010, then add 2013... I think you can add or replace 2010 servers provided they are at SP3.
What if you had lots of Exchange servers (a hosting company for example) and had to replace a server member of a DAG? Let's assume some mailboxes have been migrated to DAGs on E2K13 and some are still on E2K10.
Note: within a particular DAG you cannot have differents versions of Exchange but you could have some DAGs with E2K10 and others using E2K13.
It would seem that you would have to be able to install a new/replacement E2K10 server in this case? You could not replace it with a E2K13 server.
Please mark as helpful if you find my contribution useful or as an answer if it does answer your question. That will encourage me - and others - to take time out to help you.

OOF not working after Exchange 2010 install

I have a Exchange 2007 server environment where I recently installed a new Exchange 2010 server. After installing the 2010 server, my clients are receiving the following error when trying to configure OOF. "Your automatic reply settings
cannot be displayed because the server is currently unavailable. Try again later." I've not moved any mailboxes to the new server, just installed it.
I've done all the tests I can find online and all pass without issue. I'ma able to get to the OOF URL without issue as well.
The 2007 server is on SP 3 rollup 12.

Hi,
The above problem generally occurs because the CAS server uses the credentials that you used to log on to Windows instead of the credentials that you used to log on to the mailbox in Outlook. I recommend you install the hotfix in the following KB to solve
this issue.
"Your Out of Office settings cannot be displayed, because the server is currently unavailable. Try again later" error when you try to open the Out of Office Assistant in Outlook 2010

Hope it helps.
Best regards,

Not sure that would be the issue with every machine on the network, plus the user I'm logging in with is the mailbox I need to access so the credentials should be the same.

Hey everyone! Thanks for any help in advanced.
Honestly after losing access to an old account and making a new account I've still been a long time fan of skype and love free 1 on 1 video calls. I'm really hoping this is an easy fix because honestly I've been looking at the skype community forums for the last hour and havn't been able to find a fix.
About 2 and a half hours ago I reduced the size of my only partiton on my 500 GB harddrive as much as I could. After doing this I reinstalled windows on the new 200ish GB partition. After installing and loading windows I coppied skype, smite, and steam from D:\Program Files to C:\Program Files (x86) and attempted to run skype. Skype opened and I signed in as usual but skype was having a really high CPU usage and kept reading/writing to some statistics.db file at several GB/s (Total IO was like 1.8GB/s, mostly write I think). The 13% cpu usage, although concerning as abnormally high, didnt really bog down performance too much. This high disk usage was really driving my mad as when it peaked my computer would almost stop responding and skype.exe would stop responding (although it resumed eventually). Skype in this state was unusable as any time the window was focused it almost crashed.
After this I decided to reinstall skype instead of using the backup I had. I went to uninstall skype and found that it didnt show up on the list to "uninstall a program" so I tried following as many steps I could at https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA10634/how-can-i-completely-uninstall-and-then-reinstall-skype-for...
I've also followed all the steps here except for installing an earlier version of skype as I'm not sure what version to use. http://community.skype.com/t5/Windows-desktop-client/Skype-Problems-Troubleshooting/td-p/52260
I force ended skype.exe then made backups of my skype user and pictures folders. I skipped step 3 since it wasn't in the list. I then did steps 4-6. While doing this I noticed it said there may be "up to 50" references to skype in the registry but I noticed there were a lot more. I'm not exactly sure how many there were but I counted up to 40 and when I noticed I was only half way through the registry I started spamming "delete" key "enter" (to confirm deletion) as fast as I could. I'd say there were at least 70 skypes in the registry. I'm not sure if this registry includes things from my other installation of windows or if it got **bleep**ed up because of they way I tried to install skype.
After doing all this with my registry I rechecked to make sure the skype program files and skype app data folders were deleted and then tried to reinstall skype. Downloading from http://www.skype.com/en/download-skype/skype-for-computer/ I tried to reinstall it and all I did was unchecked "run skype when windows starts" hit next unchecked the bing and skype click to call stuff, hit next. After it said installing for a while it said installation failed error 1603.
I tried following advice of several posts on the forums and other sites, including going through the registry again, using Microsofts FixIt for install/uninstalls, and trying to install skype from another administrator account. After looking at several posts, trying all these fixes, and looking into it myself I'm really not sure what to do.
I've looked at all of the following posts and tried all the fixes I saw.

http://www.msigeek.com/715/how-to-troubleshoot-the-error-1603-fatal-error-during-installation (This page gave me an "Error establishing database connection" page)
Not really sure what else to say or do, I've never really had to debug any programs or windows features before, and the only time I ever messed with the registry was a few windows installs before when I had to delete several instances of a self-reinstalling virus on my computer that spammed processes and lagged my computer.
Edit: After seeing this link I tried rerunning Microsoft's FixIt Install/Uninstall with the program ID from the folder name at %programdata%\Skype. I tried doing this and installing Skype from SkypeSetup_6.1.0.129.msi. Installation failed with some failed to read file totally forgot what it was. I then tried using the standard InstallSkypeFull.exe and it gave an actual error this time instead of the apparently "generic" error 1603 (see attached picture) After this installation failed I tried reinstalling from the 6.1.0.129.msi and it didn't say it failed. I'm about to try and open it.
Anddd opening Skype failed with the error message in the attached skype2 picture. I'm just going to close everything related to that except for this post and I'm going to close all my installers and debug stuff I have open and just wait for a reply. Currently I believe the system thinks skype is installed but I can't open it.
Solved!

I'm afraid that after all the manipulations your system is so messed up that a regular Skype installation is no longer possible.
Try this:
Download but not run this msi-installer for Skype 6.9.0.106 version:
http://download.skype.com/msi/SkypeSetup_6.9.0.106.msi
Create a folder on your computer where you want Skype application to be located. This folder can also be C:\Program Files (x86)\Skype\Phone\, but any other location will work too.
Now using the procedure described here:
http://community.skype.com/t5/Windows-desktop-client/How-to-update-Skype-without-using-any-Skype-ins...
extract Skype.exe file from the SkypeSetup_6.9.0.106.msi file and copy this Skype.exe file to the selected installation folder.
Right click on the Skype.exe file and select: Send to – Desktop (create shortcut). You will have to start Skype using this new shortcut.
P.S. There is a new link to the latest Lessmsi program:

Java Install error 1603 on Java 8u45

I am having issues getting Java to Install on a Windows 7 Pro PC in a stand alone environment.
Error Code 1603. Java is needed on this PC to be able to print shipping labels from FEDEX.com. I am trying to install using the administrator account. I have removed previous versions of Java. I have removed the MS updated KB2918614.
The java uninstall tool doesn't run because Java is required to run the java uninstall tool. I have run multiple Microsoft Fixit Tools. This is the second PC I have had this error with in this office. Does anyone have any thing more to offer that
might assist me. I have "Google'd" this error for 2 weeks now. Help would be greatly appreciated, Thank You!

Hi,
According to official site of Oracle, This is a known issue with Microsoft KB2918614The root causes of these errors are under investigation. If this error still persists after uninstalled this update.
You could try following zooeyhall’s suggestion to download and install a previous version of Java or try creating a new administrative user account and install Java with the new account.

Regarding to JAVA installation error, I’d suggest that we post at JAVA forum for further support. There you can get more effective suggestion by other experts who familiar with it. Your understanding is highly appreciated.

Exchange 2010: Installing Server Rollup

Environment: (2) Servers in a DAG with (9) databases, all db's residing on Server1. I have already patched Server2. What is the proper procedure for installing the rollup on Server1? Not all the databases have copies on Server2,
i.e. public folders and a couple others.
Sorry, I didn't see a forum for Exchange 2010.
Thanks,

Hi,
To install update on DAG members, you can look at the article provided by Andy.
If users want to access public folders during the process of installing the rollup on Server1, you need to create a public folder database on Server2 and set this new public folder database as default public folder database for all mailbox databases.
Before you install update on Server1, you need to move active database to Server2 first.

Silverlight plugin won't install: error 1603... disable your antivirus

I could not install MS Silverlight. I had to turn off my antivirus and try again and then it worked.
When I tried to install Silverlight it got to 99% complete then I got a generic error 1603 "installation failed" message that was no help. The silverlightMSI file in %temp% (run from command line) shows a 1406 error code because the installer was unable to modify a registry key for Firefox (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MozillaPlugins\@Microsoft.com/NpCtrl,version=1.0). I do have admin rights for my account but my stupid McAfee antivirus blocked the installer from modifying the key.

1603 is a "Fatal Error"
Have a look at these two links to see if they are any help
I scanned both URLs using Virus Total and they are indicated as 100% clean.
