Exchange 2007 CAS Unable To Display 2013 Mailbox Free/Busy to Clients

Hi,
I'm in the process of migrating to Exchange 2013 from an Exchange 2007 backend. I have 2 2007 CAS servers in a Windows NLB named webmail.domain.com, and I'm having a problem with only a single one of those CAS servers being able to display the free/busy
information of a mailbox residing on a 2013 mailbox server. The other CAS works fine.
Both CAS servers are Exchange 2007 SP3. Both CAS servers have their virtual directories named webmail.domain.com/{vitual direction url}. I built both servers from the ground up and configured them at the same exact time performing the same steps
on each. My 2013 CAS servers are in a Windows NLB for mail.domain.com, and they have all their virtual directories named for mail.domain.com. These are separate entries in DNS. Other autodiscover services are working fine. I have most
traffic flowing Exchange 2013 now as well.
I've done compares on the virtual directories for each 2007 CAS, and they appear to be the same. If I bypass the NLB and just go directly to the casname01/owa, I see free/busy no problem. If I go to casname02/owa, then free/busy doesn't work
ONLY for 2013 mailboxes. It will display 2007 mailbox free/busy fine. To complicate matters, I still have a 2010 CAS in the environment from a failed O365 pilot.
Where can I look to begin to troubleshoot this? Thanks.

In the App log on the 2007 CAS, I'm seeing an Event ID 4002 from MSExchange Availability (below). This made me check my 2013 CAS NLB. It looks like it is one of the 2013 CAS servers in the mail.domain.com NLB that is causing this behavior. I
could still use guidance. Thanks.

Exchange 2007 CAS cutover to 2010 CAS experiencing some problems

We have just finished the cutover from Exchange 2007 CAS to Exchange 2010 CAS. Have had a few problems that we cannot nail down. First, On some external connections to Exchange 2010 CAS the redirection to the 2007 CAS take about 30 seconds or more.
All DNS seems to be in place. We have our external records for webmail.old.com and webmail.new.com. We had the internal records for both as well. the virtual directories have been change on the 2007 CAS servers to point to webmail.old.com. Internal connections
and redirections seem fine. Externally I can access 2007 and 2010 separately just fine. Any thoughts are assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi,
Please try to disable Outlook Anywhere on your Exchange 2007 CAS infrastructure in the "Internet Facing AD Site" by utilizing the cmdlet: Disable-OutlookAnywhere -Server <cas2007>. Optionally, you can also remove the RPC over
HTTP proxy component.</cas2007>
In addition, I recommend you refer to the following article to compare your configuration:

Renew certificate on two Exchange 2007 CAS servers

Hi, there:
Our environment: Exchange 2007 SP3 with two HUB/CAS servers, let's assum server name for these two CAS servers are: CAS1 and CAS2.
Please note these two CAS servers are NOT running with NLB.
Now the certificate(not self-signed) on these two servers are about to expired and I am planing to install new certificate on them.
The old certificate is issued by internal CA server.
My plan is as below:
On CAS1:
I am going to use "New-ExchangeCertificate" with -privatekeyexportable to generate the certificate request file then submit the request file to CA, after I get the
.pfx file run "Import-ExchangeCertificate" to import the new certificate, after the old certificate is expired, run "enable service"
to let exchange use the new certificate.
On CAS2:
repeat the above procedure.
I did a serach on technet and found this:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/exchange/en-US/20adfb3d-2fa6-4ff9-b785-cb47a772ed58/3rd-part-certificate-renewal-for-exchange-2007-cas?forum=exchangesvrgenerallegacy
the procedure mentioned in this thread is different. it export the newly created certificate from CAS1 and import it into CAS2.
however the CAS server mentioned in that thread run with NLB.
The two CAS servers in our environment is NOT NLB.
Any suggestions?

Both plans will work. You can generate a cert for each individual CAS with the correct subject names on each cert relative to the CAS that you will enable it on or create one cert with the correct subject names that cover both CAS and export and import
the cert from one CAS to the other. Up to you.

TS3899 Sending a meeting invite from Exchange 2007 account located in Central Time from Outlook 2010 Email Client located in Eastern Time cause meeting to show up 1 hour early on iPhone

Sending a meeting invite from Exchange 2007 account located in Central Time from Outlook 2010 Email Client located in Eastern Time cause meeting to show up 1 hour early on iPhone.

The meeting invite is being sent from a Computer through the Outlook 2010 Email Client. Both Computer and Outlook 2010 are set to Eastern Time. The OWA (Outlook Web Access) for the 2007 account is set to Eastern Time. The Outlook 2010 Email Client is connected to an Exchange 2007 account and the Exchange server for the exchange 2007 account is located in Chicago (Central Time) and is set to Central Time. When the meeting invite is sent from the Outlook 2010 Client the recipient receives the invite on his/her iPhone(set and located in the Eastern Time Zone) and a mime-attachment.ics file is attached to the meeting invite email. There is no info displayed in the subject line or message body. If the iPhone user opens the attachment it displays the meeting date and time and any other info that was sent from Outlook. The Outlook 2010 user sets the meeting for 10:00am to 11:00am. when the meeting invite mime-attachment.ics file is opened on the iPhone the meeting is displayed as 9:00am to 10:00am. if the iPhone user adds the ics file to his/her calendar it adds a meeting event that is scheduled 1 hour earlier than it is supposed to be. I had the iPhone user to set Time Zone support on and off and there is no change.

Exchange 2013 MB/CAS integration with legacy Exchange 2007 CAS/MB/Trans server

Hi All,
I have an existing running Exchange 2007 SP3 RU13 server acting as MB,CAS,Transport using a Barracuda SPAM for SMTP (MX Record is assigned to here), and a TMG2010 server performing all ActiveSync, Outlook Anywhere, and OWA connectivity.
I have built a new Exchange 2013 SP1 server that will (for the meantime) act as a MB & CAS server only.
I successfully migrated a testuser mailbox to the new EX2013 server from the EX2007 server. The problem is that once migrated, OWA and Outlook can't access the mailbox.
OWA form our URL gives the message: Outlook Web Access is currently unavailable. If the problem continues, contact technical support for your organization and tell them the following: No Client Access servers of the appropriate version can be accessed from
the Internet
If I run OWA from the EX2013 URL it works ok, but not for MBs on the EX2007 server.
I tested this configuration in a VM lab and it worked ok. All I had to do was move the mailbox, then run Outlook. Outlook automatically found the new server and opened the MB.
Basically what I need to do is move all our existing MBs from the old 2007 server to the new 2013 server. I want to continue to use the exisiting transport/CAS/EDGE services on 2007 without having to rebuild both the internal and external comunications
infrastructure at the present time.
How can I get the EX2013 server to act as the MB server for the EX2007 communications infrastructure?

Hi,
Please try to create a new user on Exchange 2013, and send/receive email via both Outlook and OWA to test whether the Exchange 2013 mail flow well.
If Exchange 2013 works well, please try to bypass the TMG on Exchange 2007 for a little while for testing.
Additionally, we can use CAS 2013 URL to proxy/redirect previous CAS, or publish both CAS 2007 and CAS 2013 to be internet facing server with separate URLs, as Ed suggested.
Thanks

Exchange 2007: attachment missing in Outlook 2013 / owa but it was already opened

Hi folks,
We are experiencing a problem with some emails that have attachment.
We have already opened that Excel attachment in the past weeks. Now, Outlook and also owa displays the icon of the attachment (paperclip) but when we open the email there isn’t the file.
It seems that something has removed the attachment from the Exchange server also if Outlook has already downloaded the file.
We are using Outlook 2013 and Exchange 2007.
Today also the paperclip has disappeared...that's very strange!
Any ideas?
Many thanks
Diego

Hi Diego,
From your description, I would like to verify if there are any tips when you open this problematic email. Such as "Outlook blocked access to the following potentially unsafe attachments:". If yes, please post the detailed information for my further
research.

Exchange/Outlook 2013 No free/busy information could be retrieved

We are getting a problem for certain users where their Free/Busy info is not visible in the Scheduling Assistant.
HOWEVER - the same user's calendar can be viewed as a Shared Calendar without a problem.
I believe this has been working previously and has now stopped.
It is affecting Mac & PC user the same and is also apparent in OWA.
Please help as typically this is affecting our VIPs.
Thanks

Hi,
According to your description, I noticed that the free/busy information also couldn’t be retrieved in OWA. Please confirm your Exchange version and double check whether all users can’t use scheduling assistant to view free/busy information.
In Outlook client, please run Test E-mail AutoConfiguration tool to test the Autodiscover service and Availability service URL:
please open Outlook - press CTRL key - right click on the Outlook icon from right bottom corner taskbar - Test Email AutoConfiguration. Put your email address - uncheck use guessmart and secure guessmart authentication - click Test to check your Autodiscover
service.
In Results tab, please get the Availability service URL. Then access it in Internet Explorer in your local machine, and check whether a proper XML file can be returned.

Outlook 2010/Exchange 2007 Calendar Will Not Display

Hi Folks,
I've been working on an issue for the past 3 weeks and would love some assistance.
Here's the problem:
A user indicated that she was using Outlook normally, flipping between the Mail and Calendar tab. When she went back to the Calendar tab, the navigation pane switched to the Calendar tab, but the main pane and ribbon were still showing Mail content.
The only way for her to display her Calendar properly is to right-click on Calendar and select "Open in New Window" - but even then if she goes to the Mail tab, she cannot go back to her Calendar again.
Please note we are running on Exchange version 8.3.327.1
Here are the fixes I've attempted:
New OST file
New Mail profile
Ran outlook.exe with the following switches: /safe /cleanrules /cleanview /resetfolders /resetnavpane
Please note: resetnavpane breaks the OST file and requires me to create a new OST file for the user
Open Mailbox on a different computer - that same issue occurs
Open Mailbox in webmail - the calendar is displayed properly
Odds n Ends: Hitting CTRL + 6, Hitting F5.
I've run out of ideas and would appreciate any ideas to resolve this problem
Thanks!
Derek

Hi Derek,
It should not be an Exchange issue. Based on my research, there is no feature in Exchange server can configure the Outlook reading pane or navigation pane performance. Since there is only one user encounter this issue and OWA can work well, please check
the following points to narrow down the issue:
1. Please configure your Outlook account in your colleague’s domain-joined computer with your colleague’s domain account to check whether the issue is caused by your Roaming Profile.
2. Configure Outlook account outside the domain by using Outlook Anywhere to check whether the issue is caused by any policy in your domain.

Exchange active sync cannot connect to server after migration mailbox user from exchange 2007 to exchange 2013 coexistence

Hello, everyone, my name is rafl
I have a problem with exchange 2013 active sync.
I have installed exchange 2013 coexistence with legacy exchange 2007, I have to migrate user mailboxes: [email protected] from exchange 2007 to exchange 2013.
but any problem with active sync connection on the mobile device after moving mailbox user. I reconfigure the exchange ActiveSync external connection domain (latest.domain.com) on mobile device replacing legacy exchange ActiveSync external connection domain
(legacy.domain.com)
the process of moving mailboxes successfully without error.
Access OWA for exchange 2007 and exchange 2013 is running normally
access mail from Outlook running normally
Certificate request has been installed and has no problem with it
The OWA virtual directory is configured for internal and external connections and different from the legacy exchange
The autodiscover virtual directory is configured for internal and external connections and different from the legacy exchange
ActiveSync virtual directory is configured for internal and external connections and different from the legacy exchange
user mailboxes are still on exchange 2007 is not problematic.
only problem with Exchange Active Sync on mobile devices, where I set up an email with android, iphone, windows phone. the error message: cannot connect to the server.
but, if I create a new user and create user mailboxes directly in exchange server 2013, ActiveSync can run without error on mobile device, access through OWA, MsOutlook, Outlook Anywhere also run normally.
only the results of user migration from exchange 2007 to exchange 2013 which is troubled with exchange ActiveSync connection.
any ideas for this problem, and what should I check on the exchange server ..?

i have run the activesync test connectivity and get some error :
Testing TCP port 443 on host domain.co.id to ensure it's listening and open.
The specified port is either blocked, not listening, or not producing the expected response.
A network error occurred while communicating with the remote host.

I have allowed access to port 443 (https) and 80 (http) on the firewall and re-run testconnectivity, but still with the same results. if I enable active sync for users who created directly in Exch 2013 there is no problem with the ActiveSync, just a problem
for users who moved from Exch 2007 to Exch 2013. @Android, iPhone, and Blackberry the error message "cannot connect to the server"

Accessing Exchange 2013 Mailboxes from Terminal Server hosted on Server 2003 Std - Cert Issues

We are in the midst of deploying an Exchange 2013 SP1 CU5 environment and have run into some issues. Currently there is a good coexistence between a single Exchange 2007 server and the 5 2013 servers. Mail is flowing through 2013 and then being
relayed to 2007 when necessary.
We have a number of Server 2003 Terminal Servers. On two separate machines, both running the lastest rollups of Outlook 2010, any user with a 2013 mailbox receives a password prompt after launching Outlook. It is trying to connect to one of the
two CAS, fills in the user's account, and will not accept any password. In addition, a window pops up behind stating "There is a problem with the proxy server's security certificate. the name on the security certificate is invalid or does
not match the name of the target site mail.pvschemicals.com. Outlook is unable to connect to the proxy server. (error code 0)." 2007 mailboxes are not affected.
We have checked pretty much everything that we can think of. Virtual Directories are good, certificate is good, etc. The strange thing is that only happens on 2003 TS machines, so I have to think that it's related. Our 2008 TS' are just
find.
We have applied the 2003 SHA2 certificate hotfix.

Hi,
According to your description, the configurations of Outlook Anywhere are proper. And based on my research, the issue can be related to the version of the terminal server 2003. Thus, please check if your terminal 2003 server is 2003 R2 SP2 or later.
For more information, you can refer to the following thread:

Legacy Namespace for Exchange 2007 to 2013 co-existence

We are migrating from Exchange 2007 to 2013, during the co-existence phase, where is the legacy.{domain.com} namespace used? We are at the point now that we want to move all services over to the Exchange 2013 CAS servers, however... GPO settings
are used to point outlook clients to mail.{domain.com} for Outlook Anywhere. If DNS is updated to point mail.{domain.com} to the Exchange 2013 servers, will there be an issue with connectivity for people still on the Exchange 2007 servers? Do these people
need to point to legacy.{Domain.com} or will mail.{domain.com} proxy the connection to the legacy namespace? I would like to know if the GPO settings will interfer with the settings that Autodiscovery provide back.
I have read a bunch or articles on the approach, but I am still fuzzy on where legacy.{domain.com} comes into play.
Thanks in advance for your help.

In coexistence with exchange 2013 and legacy version the request happens in 2 types.
For Exchange 2010 –
Exchange 2013 does a Proxy for owa and ews requests for users in exchange 2010.
For Exchange 2007 –
Exchange 2013 does redirection for owa and ews requests for users in Exchange 2007.
Certificates:
All the required SAN entries for UM,webservices and activesync should be created.
Add external owa legacy URL to the public certificate and install it on both Exchange 2007 and
Exchange 2013 only then owa redirection will work.
You need to Include internal Legacy. Domain.com on Exchange 2007 Certificate for OWA co-
Existence.
Following change needs to be done in Firewall
External OWA URL should be directed to exchange 2013 Internet Facing CAS.
External EWS URL should be directed to exchange 2013 Internet Facing CAS.
External Autodiscover URL should should be directed to Exchange 2013 CAS.
External ActivesyncVirtualDirectory should be directed to Exchange 2013 CAS.
External UMvirtualDirectory should be directed to Exchange 2013 CAS.
Create new NAT rule on firewall for Legacy.domain.com to Exchange 2007 CAS. You can do this as well.By doing this users will be able to log on directly using the URL https://legacy.domain.com/owa with
a mailbox on Exchange 2007.
External and Internal DNS settings
Public DNS - Map all of your external public DNS records (ews,owa,activesync etc.,) to your
exchange 2013 public IP if you have dedicated one for 2013 or FQDN of your internet facing CAS server.
Example:
Current external owa URL (contoso.domain.com) – point it to dedicated exchange 2013 public ip or internet facing exchange 2013 CAS FQDN.
Current External Autodiscover – point it to dedicated exchange 2013 public ip or internet
facing exchange 2013 CAS FQDN
Internal DNS – Configure the Exchange 2007 to point SCP AutoDiscoverURI to Exchange 2013 Client
Access FQDN by changing DNS entry for Autodiscover.domain.com to exchange 2013 CAS sever Ip
address
The internal DNS records should point to the internal host name and IP address of your Exchange
2013 Client Access server
Make sure that legacy.contoso.com resolves to CAS2007 in internal and external DNS.
Authentication Settings:
This part is little bit tricky. You need to plan according to your organization. If you have FBA configured in TMG or ISA server then you need to configure accordingly.
Set the owa virtual directory authentication only to Basic in exchange 2007.
In exchange 2013 set owa virtual directory to only (Windows Authentication) or only (form-based authentication) or only (Basic, No redirection, SSL Enabled) depends according to your setup.
Things to check:
If you have redirection configured in IIS on the Exchange 2007 Server Make sure that the above
Virtual Directories doesn’t have it configured.
If you have FBA enabled on ISA or TMG then disable FBA on Exchange 2013 CAS else users will be prompted twice for authentication

Decommission Exchange 2007 Mailbox Server from Cluster

Hi! I realize this is an Exchange 2013 forum, however as I do not see any forums for older flavors of Exchange I'm going to post this here. If a better forum exists please let me know and I'll happily move to that forum for my answers.
I am just finishing a migration from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013. In the Exchange 2007 environment I have 2 CCR Mailbox Clusters. While working to decommission the first of the two clusters I successfully evicted the passive node, however
I mistakenly evicted the active node rather than removing it by running the Exchange Setup Wizard as outlined in the TechNet article "How to Remove the Active Mailbox Role from a CCR Environment".
Now, when attempting to uninstall Exchange 2007 using the Setup Wizard in Add/Remove Program I get the following error during the prerequisite check for the 'Mailbox Role':
Error:
Exchange server FQDN was not found. Please make sure you have typed it correctly."
Setup then completes.
Is there a way to cleanly uninstall Exchange 2007 and clean-up Active Directory?
Thanks!

Hi Jesse,
Thank you for your question.
We could run “ADsiedit.msc” in run, then navigate
Configuration [<domainController>.contoso.com]> CN=Configuration,DC=contoso,DC=com> CN=Services> CN=Microsoft Exchange> CN=<OrganizationName> CN=Administrative Group> CN=Exchange Administrative Group>CN=Server
We could check if mailbox server is existed in this container, we could remove it.
Notice: Before we remove it, we could make a backup for AD database. We suggest you call MS engineer for help.
If there are any questions regarding this issue, please be free to let me know.
Best Regard,
Jim

Export Mailbox from Exchange 2010 and Import to Exchange 2007

Hello,
I exported mailbox (1GB in size) from Exchange 2010 to *.pst file; I need to import it into
Exchange 2007 mailbox. Is it supported ?
The operation completed successfully (no errors) but no items were imported; is it due to unsupported backward compatibility or some other issue ?
Thank you,
Luca

I also have the same issue. Exported mailboxes on Exchange 2010 SP3 latest updates using
New-MailboxExportRequest and then tried to import into mailbox on Exchange 2007 SP3 with latest updates. The 32-bit client machine used for the import has Outlook 2010 SP1 (SP2 and later updates causes a different error). I used Outlook 2010 because the E2K10
New-MailboxExportRequest documentation states that you have to use Outlook 2010 or later. The PST files created can be opened and imported via Outlook but not with the
Import-Mailbox cmdlet (with no error as stated in this thread). Other PSTs, not created from E2K10 export do import just fine. I also ran ScanPST.exe against the exported PST and then ran the import again and it worked, everything got imported. Interestingly
the test mailbox PST file I was using was 761 KB but after the ScanPST it was 1,257 KB - must be some difference in the PST format that the Import-Mailbox cmdlet can't deal with.
Does anyone have any other solutions or
workarounds to this. I've got over 900 mailboxes I need this for due to an
acquisition? Has anyone tried using Outlook 2013 on the machine used for doing
the Exchange 2007 imports or does Outlook 2013 also have the same issue as later versions of Outlook 2010 (Exchange Mailbox import failed with error code 2147221233)?

Exchange 2007 mailbox migration question

Hi, I'm using Exchange 2007 and had most of my mailboxes are currently on a single mail server. I recently built two new mail servers and used CCR. I have 7800+ mailboxes and was told that when I move the mailboxes from the old mail server to the new
mail server that this will create a huge amount of additional transaction logs that wouldn't be cleared out until the next backup. We do nightly backup and have 1 TB of free space on our log drive. I can't find anywhere that documents that moving mailboxes
from one mail server to another would create additional transaction logs. I could understand the existing transaction logs would follow the mailboxes to the new mail server, but I don't see where it would create new transaction logs? I'm planning on moving
only 200-300 mailboxes a night, so this wouldn't happen all at once.
Any clarification would be helpful.
         Thanks,
          Andrew

Agree with Cara on this and the transaction logs can be fairly hefty in size when migrating a bunch of data. One other option would be to;
1. do a backup of the associated stores/database right before migration.
2. then run on circular logging for those all databases within a storage group which will keep the logs in check
3. upon completion turn circular logging OFF, do a full backup and proceed along your way.
There is however some risk with using circular logging and you should read the articles below
http://exchangeserverpro.com/ems-enabledisable-exchange-server-2007-circular-logging/
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb331968%28v=exchg.80%29.aspx

http://blogs.technet.com/b/scottschnoll/archive/2011/06/27/circular-logging-and-mailbox-database-copies.aspx
Of course you could also keep things as they are and then monitor disk space and log volume during migration and as things rise Execute a Full backup to clear/truncate the logs. Technically its safer to do this then turn on circular logging but its
allot more resource intensive all the way around.   Another option would be to schedule several full backups during the migration process, i.e. every NN hours etc and then the backups will happen automatically and all should be well as long as the
backups complete before the disk runs out of space from log file generation

Export-Mailbox cmdlet from a 32-bit computer that has the following installed:
The 32-bit version of the Exchange management tools
Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 SP2 or later versions
If not, you may encounter the following error message:
You check that you have these required installed, but you get the error below when you run Export-Mailbox in EMS.
“The specified mailbox database [Mailbox Database Name] does not exist.”

Hi,
Based on my test, if you make the user the owner of the database (rather than a user with the db_owner role), when you create a query, it creates it under the dbo schema rather than DOMAIN\username.
Steps to do so (in Management Studio):
Right click database, select Properties
Click File
Change Owner in the textbox
OK to confirm
Downside - other users under db_owner role will still have their username appended. So schemas have to be created for these users.
