Exchange 2013 ActiveSync not working

Hello everyone,
We seem to be having problems with our ActiveSync not working anymore. Users with mobile devices can not access their mailboxes. We have checked just about every setting and the IIS logs and can't find an answer to this issue. Microsoft's Remote Connectivity
Analyzer shows the following error which we can not find an answer for anywhere.
An ActiveSync session is being attempted with the server.
     Errors were encountered while testing the Exchange ActiveSync session.
    Test Steps
    Attempting to send the OPTIONS command to the server.
     Testing of the OPTIONS command failed. For more information, see Additional Details.
    Additional Details
     A Web exception occurred because an HTTP 400 - BadRequest response was received from IIS7.
Thanks!

Hi,
Did you ever find a solution to your problem?  I have exactly the same problem with a fresh install of exchange 2013.  Can access mailboxes via outlook 2010 and owa but can't connect any mobile device.  I'm stumped...
a 400 IIS Bad Request error indicates token bloat. Are you proxying to 2010 mailboxes?
The usual fix is to set the following reg keys on the CAS receiving the requests following the first step described in this article that is similar:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2491354
Create the following registry keys on all CAS servers (both Exchange Server 2007 CAS servers and Exchange Server 2010 SP1 CAS servers) in the Active Directory site:
Path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\HTTP\Parameters
Name: MaxFieldLength
Type: DWORD
Value data: 65534
Path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\HTTP\Parameters
Name: MaxRequestBytes
Type: DWORD
Value date: 16777216

  • Exchange 2013 autodiscover not working from Externally

    Hi 
    i have exchange 2010 sp3(2Mb, 2hub/cas). I installed exchange 2013 servers(2MB, 2CAS). For coexistence i generated new certifcate with new cas from third party. I installed that certificate in that cas and assigned all services. i changed all my virtual
    directories service url. I didnt import the new certificate to exchange 2010 cas server and i didnt change url to legacy link.But still iam able to check exchange 2010 user mailbox owa, activesync and autodiscover without any certificate error. 
    If i try to browse owa, its going to 2013 server, if user is exchange 2010 user and its redirecting to exchange 2010 owa with same link.
    But i dont know how above things is working without importing to new certificate...
    Main problem is i am not able to configure exchange 2013 users outlookanywhere, Autodiscover from externally...
    So in tmg i pointed the outlook anywhere ip address new cas server, now both exchange 2010 and exchange 2013 users while OA from external, its keep on asking password... Not accepting it...
    Please help me to fix this issue..

    Hi ,
    On TMG please have the outlook anywhere rule like below and check the status.
    Step
    1 :
    On the TMG rule - >authentication delegation ---> select the option "no delegation users can authenticate directly"
    Step
    2 :
    on the users tab in the TMG rule - just add "all users" group on that rule.
    By having the above settings we have avoided the issues in your environment.
    Note : Based on the above setting's , Each and everyone in exchange will have a access to the outlook anywhere from external world , because there would not be having any restriction on the TMG rules.
    Please have a look in to the below link , it will give you some ideas which is related to TMG

  • Exchange 2013 OOF not working for migrated accounts

    We are having a problem with the Out of Office responses in Exchange 2013. 
    We are getting the error “Your automatic reply settings cannot be displayed because the server is currently unavailable. 
    Try again later.”  I have been through several help articles that I found on the internet and so far none have resolved the problem. 
    Autodiscover is working as expected when connecting an Outlook client – and I can access the url identified by the “Test Email AutoConfiguration” tool for OOF – it returns the xml document as expected. New accounts created in this domain work, but the
    problem occurs accounts that were migrated from Server 2003 domain running Exchange 2007. I can also access the OOF settings for a migrated account using OWA. The new domain is 2012 and Exchange 2013 and accounts are being migrated using ADMT through a trust,
    which is working as expected.  Only the accounts have been migrated (not mailboxes) and I am not planning to connect the old exchange to the new to do mailbox moves – instead I am just planning to export psts from the old Exchange 2007 server
    and then import them to the 2013 server.  The client dns settings are correct and all other connectivity seems fine. 
    Any ideas are greatly appreciated.  I have also tried creating a new Outlook profile, turning off Cached Mode, and creating an entirely new Windows profile and Outlook profile. 
    I have also tried using Outlook 2007, Outlook 2010 and Outlook 2013. 

    I solved this - EWS was disabled for the mailbox.  Set-CASMailbox -Identity User -EWSEnabled $true fixed the problem.

  • Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync not working in Mobile Network – Blackberry Z10

    Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync not working in Mobile Network – Blackberry Z10
    I have set-up office email account in Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync this work only over office Wi-Fi not working outside of office Wi-Fi range. When I back to office all new e-mail loaded automatically. I have no problem with yahoo email setup in the same Z10 hand set work in both Wi-Fi and Mobile network. I have data plan with my carrier. Both emails were working in my previous Blackberry hand set Bold 9900. But with this New Z10 this become a problem
    What could a the problem and I need help please

    The URL you provided https://... does require SSL as it has a "s".
    Have you tested the server OMA setup with a notebook or desktop (https://webmail.domain.com/OMA)?
    You should receive a login prompt for username & password following by an Inbox listing of messages.
    We used this step to verify server setup before configuring an iPhone. Lastly, we made certain that connectivity would work from outside or within our company by doing the following:
    1) created A record for webmail.domain.com to a public IP that route through the firewall on 443 to the Exchange server's private IP - this handles external traffice
    2) added an internal DNS record for webmail.domain.com to the private IP of the Exchange server.
    This ensures that webmail.domain.com sync's to exchange from outside or from within the Enterprise.

  • Adobe Exchange Panel Update not working?

    Hello:
    My OS is Windows 7 64 bit and I have Ps and Ia installed on my laptop.
    I downloaded and installed the Adobe Exchange roughly two months ago and everything worked great at first.
    I installed a few things such as the Paper Textures and a game Level Up (can't recall the others at the moment).
    The game worked three times but then it just stopped responding. I never had an issue with the other extensions.
    Yesterday I went to try out the game again but when i opened the Exchange panel it said there was a new update and so i (sadly) opted to click 'Update'
    After clicking the update button I received a message:
    Also, Norton said the link or what have ya was NOT trusted and is Unknown. So, I clicked on the Norton message and got this info:
    Heuristic virus? um, what?  
    http://www.pctools.com/security-news/heuristic-virus-definition/
    I went ahead and Removed all the extensions I had downloaded/installed from the Exchange panel but I would very much like to be able to use them again.
    Any ideas as to the issue? Is there a solution?
    I have shut off Norton to see if that would work but I still get the above message  "... valid signature ... "
    Sure would appreciate some input.
    Thank you in advance
    ps. could the Heuristic virus detection be a False Positive?

    Hello:
     You are totally misunderstanding me. I have Windows 7 64 bit and I did have the Exchange Panel already installed. When I went to use the Exchange PanelIT had an update. I didNOT update to Windows 8.
    I clicked on the UPDATE IN the Exchange Panel which is what would NOT install because NORTON said it IS MALWARE.
    I tried to update the Exchange Panel and NOT my operating system.
    The attempt to Update the Exchange Panel caused the older version of the Exchange Panel to not work. So, I had to Uninstall the Exchange Panel and then when I went to Reinstall the Exchange Panel it would NOT install. And now I cannot use it at all.
    Again, I DO have Windows 7 and NOT Windows 8.
    Please, I would very much like to be able to use the Exchange Panel again because I would like to install some extensions, let me know when this issue is resolved.
    Thank You,

  • Exchange 2013 mailboxes not accessible in outlook

    Hi,
    In the middle of migration from one exchange 2010 server to 2013 server and thought things were going well.  However migrated mailboxes to exchange 2013 are not accessible through outlook although they are through OWA most of the time.
    I ran test connectivity comandlet on 2013 server on mailboxes and they tested okay.
    However when you connect to mailbox it says exchange unavailable.  
    I have a new ucc certificate on the exchange 2013 server that includes mail.contoso.com and autodiscover.contoso.com.  These are both setup to point to 2013 server with split brain dns.  The 2010 server has a certificate for mail.contoso.com.
    The SC for autodiscovery right now for both the exchange 2010 and 2013 servers are https://mail.contoso.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml
    When I run outlook connectivity test I get the following failure: 
    Test Steps

  • Activesync not working for Windows Phone with certificate

    We have a new Exchange Server 2013 setup and using activesync.  We have setup a policy to require simple password and to send an email to provision a device when it connects.  Activesync is setup to use self signed certificates,  this was
    tested first on the Ipad.  Certificate installed entered the settings and the device appeared in the quarantined devices list awaiting to be approved.  This was also done on the Iphone and worked. 
    When putting the same certificate on the windows phone device it errored with there is a problem with {as.domain-name.net} and does not appear in quarantined devices screen.
    I tested again with another Ipad and an android device and they work without an issue.  Tested with a Windows RT device and got the same issue.  If I look in the IIS log files I can see the windows device making a connection then when I presume
    to be the error 500 at the end of the line. 
    This is not a user issue as I can use the same user on the various devices.  The windows devices just do not want to connect.  We have looked at the certificate but if it works for apple and android devices why does it not work for windows? 
    Is there any additional security settings that need to be turned on or off for windows phones?  Is there something specific on the certificate what windows devices need that others ignore?

    I did inital think it might be a widows phone issue but there are no other settings for me to use.  I have also tested using a windows 8 surface and I get the same issue.
    I have raised the event log level on the exchange server to expert and I have seen 2 messages when I try to connect. 
    I get Event ID 1100:  Exhcnage ActiveSync device requests for your uses are being blocked.  This problme frequently occurs when HTTP OPTIONS method is not allowed.
    I know it is allowed as the test exchange connectivity worked and passed that test.
    The other error Event ID 1309 ASP.NET warning.  Part of the exception messge is DeviceTypeMissingOrInvalid
    I have come across a comment that says for certificates to work you need to use windows intune or SCCM which we don't have.  Do we know if this is true? 

  • ActiveSync not working for Apple Devices - Windows and android devices not having issue

    Recently we have had reports of users not being able to send or sync emails to / from Apple iOS devices. When we look at the ActiveSync logs, we see the affected people getting HTTP 503 errors. Yet if this person works on a Windows Mobile device or an android
    Mobile device - they do not have the problem. Similarly, if the person uses the new "Outlook" app on an Apple iOS device, they don't have the problem. It only occurs with the native mail app on iOS devices.
    We have Exchange 2013 CU5 - 4 x CAS Servers on Windows 2012, and 6 x Mailbox servers on Windows Server 2008 R2 (hardware doesn't support WS2012).
    We have logged a call with MS Support and they are looking into it, but was just wondering whether anyone else has seen this issue.
    PS - Before anyone suggests it - we have new servers on the way for the mailbox servers, and will install WS2012R2 and CU8 on it when they arrive.  But because our executive is being affected now, we need to look at this now.

    I did inital think it might be a widows phone issue but there are no other settings for me to use.  I have also tested using a windows 8 surface and I get the same issue.
    I have raised the event log level on the exchange server to expert and I have seen 2 messages when I try to connect.

  • Move Mailboxes from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013 (Could not find a valid mailbox migration for esta organization)

    Hi all, I am in full migration from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013 and everything went correctly.
    I have migrated several mailboxes and are working well. But a few days ago, when I try to migrate a mailbox I get the following error and can not migrate:
    "Could not find a valid mailbox migration for this organization"
    Do you know that you can be?
    regards
    Microsoft Certified IT Professional Server Administrator

    Hi,
    From your description, the issue should be related to the migration mailbox. I recommend you check if the following account is existed in ADUC.
    Migration.8f3e7716-2011-43e4-96b1-aba62d229136
    If this account does not exist, you need to run setup /prepareAD and then enable this migration mailbox to check the result.
    Hope this can be helpful to you.

    Hi,
    From your description, the Exchange 2013 server can't receive emails internally and externally. I recommend you follow the steps below for troubleshooting:

  • Exchange 2013 SP1 server working for several months now messages are getting stuck in drafts folder

    This a small, simple environment. There is a MS Server 2012 R2 server hypervisor with a MS Server 2012 R2 VM running Exchange 2013 patched to SP1.  This server has been deployed into production and passing mail without issues for several months.
    Upon initial deployment, we experienced the issue that many have reported and that has been widely documented where Mail Flow works fine inbound, but outbound will stick in the drafts folder. We resolved the issue by manually configuring the IP Address of
    our internal DNS server (which is an installed role on our hypervisior / base layer server).  The issue was immediately resolved and mail was flowing in both directions without issue.  We later installed SP1 and there was no issue.  Mail has
    been flowing normally all the while.
    Now fast-forward through several weeks of reliable mail delivery... We experienced a power loss and a system shutdown and upon reboot, inbound is working and outbound goes to drafts.  I've confirmed DNS Lookup settings in ECP still points to our internal
    server as previously configured.  Both servers have internet access, NSLOOKUP returns expected values, and DNS appears to be working normally.  
    I'm not sure if we had an MS Update that installed with the reboot that caused the breakage, if there was a lingering settings change that took effect on reboot, or what is causing the interruption.  I'm looking for some fresh ideas on where to look
    for answers, and all the information available on the drafts folder issue points to DNS settings that have already been put in place.  
    Any constructive ideas are welcome!   Thanks in advance.

    Amit,
    Long story short, I'm not sure how or why, but there were a few automatic services that were not starting "automatically."  I'm used to seeing some services that are triggered by the application to start and stop on their own, so I didn't necessarily
    panic when there were a few automatic services that were stopped..
    However, The MS Exchange Health Manager, and the Mailbox Submission services weren't running.  After manually starting the services my drafts folder emptied and we are back in business.. Maybe not "innovative" as you said, but it certainly put us on
    the right track.  We were looking so hard at DNS because of all the reported cases of "stuck in drafts" being related to DNS, we totally overlooked the obvious, so THANKS!
    Now the only question is, what stopped the services and why did they not restart automatically??  

  • Exchange 2013 wil NOT send email, same problem as every other exchange 2013 user, typical everything.

    I have a brand new dell server 2 netwrok cards. One WAN one LAN connected, each with its respective DNS server added to the card. In OWA the sent email shows in drafts, in outlook it shows in sent items, the user NEVER gets it, internally or externally.
    i get all mail from the internet, exactly as expected no problem, all tests show this is working everything checks out fine, server runs great, full blown domain controller with exchange 2013 added. ONLY problem after the 9th install, is still the same, exchange
    will NOT send email, everything else works perfectly event log looks great. I do see the DNS error where a DNS server on that network card is not responding crap, which is not true, internet works, al pages everything, NO firewall Bare connect while i get
    it to work. I HAVE been over the forums for the last week, tried all done all. i am an MSCE, was an MCSE instructor for 10+ years, Exchange Administrator, Exchange instructor for years, so yea, i am not some newb who has no clue, this DOES NOT WORK. it
    came at the CU1 level right out of the box, so i did not install and break it myself Microsoft is now selling this broken. Where do i go what do i do here. Like i said, every other aspect is in perfect order, Just email not sent, not showing in exchange tracking
    logs, and that DNS error on the event log, and YES i made the send connector, and the 3 setting it asks, not like that could be wrong, i mean seriously you put in very little info, any wrong entry would be obvious to even a child. SO walk me through what is
    going worng, as soon as this server sends an email, i am done building this domain, Please Help here.

  • Exchange 2010 - Archiving not working in desired situation

    Hi guys!
    Recently we had enabled online archiving on Exchange, the problem is that one thing is not working as we have wanted.
    We wanted that user picks up manually thru Outlook 2013 client which folder he does not wishes to be moved to archive, but this is not working with our current settings.
    These are the settings on server side
    bostjanc

    ah sorry, its retentionaction not retentiontag so here is the correct parameter
    Get-RetentionPolicyTag "Don't Move this*" | Set-RetentionPolicyTag -RetentionAction
    "MoveToArchive"

  • Why exchange email will not work on my ipod touch, but ok on iphone

    Why will microsoft exchange email not work on my ipod touch, but with the exact same settings, it works fine on my iphone? What is the reason for this?

    Try a soft reset, press and hold both power and home buttons together until the Apple logo appears, about 15 seconds, then release both. If still no joy, go into Settings>General>Reset then tap Reset All Settings. If still no joy, back up your iPod to your computer then do a Restore to Backup, if that doesn't work Restore to new through iTunes. If a full restore to new does not work, you may have a hardware issue, contact Apple Genius Bar to have your iPod evaluated. Good luck, Cheers.
