Hi,
Please recreate the Discovery Search Mailbox to check result.
You can look at the following article.

    Hi,
    Thanks for your response.
    The error explains that the virtual directory 'PowerShell' already exists, so we need to remove the 'PowerShell' under "Default Web Site" and "Exchange Back End" firstly, and then continue to upgrade the Exchange 2013 CU6.

  • Error During install Exchange 2013 through Powershell on Server 2012 "Mailbox role: Client Access service"

    Dear all
    During install Exchange 2013 through Powershell on Server 2012 I got this error in Mailbox role: Client Access service :

    Any advice please !!

    I can't answer your question but I had a similar issue when I was trying to move our mailbox database off the C: drive.  Our environment still has an Exchange 2007 server in it and when I was trying to move the database on the 2013 server, I would get
    error messages saying the database does not exist.  It seemed like it was trying to move the database on the 2007 server from the similar error messages that I was getting.  To get around it, I deleted the database and created a new one on the drive
    where we wanted it.
    I discovered this when I was configuring the Antispam settings.  I deleted our 2007 settings, added them to the 2013 shell, the settings appeared on our 2007 server.  The shell on 2013 was making changes to 2007.
    I'm not sure if there is a "Get|Set or New" command that I/we should be using when this happens.  Or maybe my issues will be fixed if I just remove the Exchange 2007 server?  I'm not ready to do that yet because I can't configure the spam filtering
    on 2013 yet with its shell not being able to make the changes that we need.
    I don't know if your environment is in coexistence mode like mine.
    Hopefully someone else out there has an answer or can tell us when/how the shell can make the appropriate changes to the 2013 server.  Does this happen after the 2007 server is removed?

    Hi,
    This problem occurs because the federated built-in e-mail account that links to the computer account no longer exists. Or, the federated built-in e-mail account in the AD
     directory service is corrupted.
    Please try to follow these steps to solve this problem.
        1. Remove the FederatedEmail.4c1f4d8b-8179-4148-93bf-00a95fa1e042 e-mail account by using the ADSIEDIT tool. To do this, follow these steps:
    Click Start, click Run, type adsiedit.msc, and then click
    OK.
    Locate the Default Naming Context node, and then locate to the
    CN=Users container.
    Locate and then right-click the CN=FederatedEmail.4c1f4d8b-8179-4148-93bf-00a95fa1e042 container. Then, click
    Delete.
        2. Rerun the Exchange Server 2013 Mailbox role setup application.
        3. Create a new federated e-mail account by using the following command:
    New-Mailbox -Arbitration -Name FederatedEmail.4c1f4d8b-8179-4148-93bf-00a95fa1e042 -UserPrincipalName FederatedEmail.4c1f4d8b-8179-4148-93bf-00a95fa1e042@<Default_Accepted_Domain>
    If this issue persistes, please let me know.
    Best Regards.

  • Exchange 2013 /m:recoverserver constantly failing due to MSExchangeSubmission.exe

    Hi all,
    I am trying to recover my lab Exchange 2013 server after removing a component of IIS messed all IIS functions, including all virtual directories.
    The server is running on Hyper-V so I have removed and rebuilt the OS disk whilst the Exchange data resides on a separate disk. I've reset the computer account in AD and then run the command:

  • Exchange 2013 SP1 readiness check failing

    Trying to install our first Exchange 2013 SP1 server on Windows 2012 R2 in our datacentre, the readiness check fails with:
    Error:
    The Active Directory schema isn't up-to-date, and this user account isn't a member of the 'Schema Admins' and/or 'Enterprise Admins' groups.
    For more information, visit: http://technet.microsoft.com/library(EXCHG.150)/ms.exch.setupreadiness.SchemaUpdateRequired.aspx
    There are many more errors relating to Enterprise admin rights etc.
    Please note that:
    My account is Domain admin, Schema admin and Enterprise admin member, it always has been.
    I tried the built-in AD Administrator which of course is part of the groups as well, no difference.
    Active Directory is at 2008 R2 for domain and forest functional levels.
    I tried rejoining the new Exchange designated server to the domain
    I've installed RSAT-ADDS, the Managed API 4.0 and all the other windows roles via powershell
    There is a local domain controller that is a global catalog server on the new Exchange server subnet
    I tried running the Exchange Setup on a different server on the same subnet as where the active 2010 Exchange server resides as well as the FSMO AD role holder resides, this works fine. I even did the AD prep from there no problem, that made no difference
    on the datacentre server
    AD replicates fine between the FSMO role holder and the Datacentre (no errors in dcdiag or repadmin /showrepl)
    This error is in the event log:

    the message resource is present but the message is not found in the string/message table

    So I decided to re-install the OS, worked perfectly now. Only difference from before would be:
    SCCM hasn't pushed SCEP 2012 to the new build of the same server yet
    The original server was installed in a different AD site and then it was physically mode and reassigned to an new AD site and subnet
    I might have installed the pre-reqs in a slightly different order (RSAT-ADDS, all the IIS etc things via powershell
    and then the UCM API 4.0. (saw few comments that the order of how you install them matters in other forums).
    10 or so Microsoft Windows updates haven't installed on the new OS build yet.
    Other than that, its identical. But if its not broken don't fix it, perhaps the above can help someone else though. 

  • Exchange 2013 migration ends as Failed but the migration is OK

    Hi
    After Exchange 2013 SP1 I started getting this error when migration users to 2013 or within 2013.
    We are now at CU5 and the problem remains.
    When a migrations has come to the Synced or Successful state the ECP shows status Failed!
    If you view details you see the right status. In the report you see no errors, all looks good.
    So you you just synced a mailbox you have to complete the migration from PowerShell.
    I see no event in the log about this.
    I tried recreating the arbitration mailbox but no luck.
    Is more a cosmetic problem but a bit annoying!
    Anyone seen this?

    Hi Robert,
    Does the issue happen to all migrated mailboxes or just some specific mailbox?

  • Echange 2013 Installation Failing at Mailbox Role: Transport Service - 97%

    Hi all, let me just preface by saying thank you very much all your time, help, and patience!  
    So I've gone through the Exchange 2013 deployment guide, have installed all the pre-requisites, and am now trying to install Exchange 2013 CU7 on (2) 2008 R2 Enterprise SP1 servers.  Unfortunately it is failing on both of them at the Mailbox
    Role: Transport Service - 97% with the following error:
    Error:
    The following error was generated when "$error.Clear(); 
              $maxWait = New-TimeSpan -Minutes 8

    I've seen and heard the suggestions about enabling IPv6 on the servers as well as the Domain Controllers which I've done to no avail.  We do not have IPv6 addresses available on our network as we use IPv4 space, but I've heard just having the
    IPv6 adapter disabled is a lot of times the issue.  So the adapters are set to DHCP even though there's no IPv6 address for it to grab.  The 2008 R2 servers that I'm trying to install Exchange 2013 on are VMs on ESX.  Will the
    install fail even if it offers to pick up the installation where I left off?  Do I need to completely start from scratch?  Any help would be wonderful!

    Hi,
    Please verify whether the port 3268 listen on DC.
    Please try to enable GC role on all DCs.
    Then restart Exchange server, try to find whether Event 2080 exists with all DCs.
    Then try to re-install Exchange Server 2013 CU7.
    Thanks

  • Exchange 2013: Content Index State Failed

    I am running two, two node DAG's with Exchange 2013.
    One DAG pair is running 5 databases with Server 2012 Standard and the second DAG pair is running Server 2008 R2 SP1 Standard with a single shared database.
    No matter what I try, ALL 6 databases show "ContentIndexState: Failed" with "ContentIndexErrorMessage: An internal error occurred for the database or its index.".
    I have tried rebuilding the indexes manually, automatically and manually copying the database files between servers.  I also receive errors when trying to failover the databases because the content index state is failed.
    In my test environment I have a very similar setup working fine with no issues.
    Please let me know what I can try to get this resolved.
    The error I receive when running the following set of commands is:

  • 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.

  • Exchange 2013 Window Backup failure - fails to clean up log files - error FFFFFFFC

    Hello,
    We currently have an Exchange 2013 - Exchange 2007 coexistence setup.
    1x Windows Server 2008 R2 with Exchange 2007 CAS/HUB
    1x Windows Server 2008 R2 with Exchange 2007 MBX
    1x Windows Server 2008 R2 with Exchange 2013 CU 3 (all roles)
    Since our current backup solution (Symantec Backup Exec 2010 R3) does not support backing up Exchange 2013 CU3 databases, we are using the builtin Windows Backup feature to backup the Exchange 2013 CU3 databases.
    This has functioned for a while, until all of a sudden, the log files are not cleared anymore, causing our log disk to fill up.
    Our Exchange 2013 server looks like this:
    C: Windows + Exchange installation
    D: Databases
    E: Database Log Files
    F: Archive Databases
    G: Archive Database Log Files
    S: Dedicated backup volume
    The backup is scheduled to run every day at 21:00 hours, performing a full VSS backup of D:,E:,F: and G: to the volume S:
    Windows backup log says the backup completed with exceptions, leaving the Exchange logs untouched and filling the drive.
    The Windows Backup Command Line tools are NOT installed since they are not compatible with Exchange 2013.
    In the eventvwr we can see the following error:
    The Microsoft Exchange Replication service VSS Writer (Instance a33ec440-7f12-4c50-806b-1bc5ceaf8aad) failed with error FFFFFFFC when processing the backup completion event.
    The command VSSADMIN LIST WRITERS displays the following:
    Writer name: 'Microsoft Exchange Writer'
       Writer Id: {76fe1ac4-15f7-4bcd-987e-8e1acb462fb7}
       Writer Instance Id: {cf84a907-76dc-428c-90e0-c18a3f9db493}
       State: [1] Stable
       Last error: Retryable error
    Restarting the Microsoft Exchange Replication (MSExchangeRepl) clears the writer error, same with a reboot, however the error comes backup after the next backup.
    Any thoughts on how to resolve this issue?
    Thanks.

  • Exchange 2013 SP1: Fix for failing MSExchangeTransport service

    We had a newly updated Exchange 2013 SP1 that would not start the Transport service
    "Netstat -b" showed that a service was listening to port 25 on all IP's (0.0.0.0:25) and when the service could not get the port, it would die, and Exchange would attempt to restart it over and over.
    After many tears, I found this solution: 
    Through the console or the ECP, check the Frontend receive connectors and find the one that is listening on 0.0.0.0:25, which is probably the Default Frontend Receive.  Disable it.
    Restart the MSExchangeTransport and MSExchangeTransportFrontEnd services.
    If both services restart normally, troubleshooting is complete.
    We use several custom connectors carried forward from the previous installation, which was SBS 2008.  If this applies to you, take notice.

    Normally, the Default Frontend Receive Connector (0.0.0.0:25) is the messaging entry point for your organization (I am assuming that you have a single MBX/CAS server).
    1. If you disable the Default Frontend Receive Connector (0.0.0.0:25), you block inbound email.
    2. Most probably, the cause for your problem are the Custom Receive Connectors. Check their type, and if it is Hub Transport, delete and re-create them as Front End Receive connectors.

    I've rebuilt the server but since it has something to do with the GUID I assumed it wouldn't work but I was grasping at straws and it didn't fix the issue.

  • Exchange 2013 Public Folders - Adding another PF mailbox

    Hi,
    I'm sure this is obvious, but I've looked and can't find anything.
    We're in the process of completing a cross forest migration from Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013 on premise. We've migrated PF content (using a third party app) and we're currently at around 90% of the quota for the first PF mailbox (PFMAILBOX1). My question
    is, how do we start using the second mailbox (PFMAILBOX2 in this case)? Does it just roll over when it breaches the PF quota?
    PFMAILBOX1 has the primary hierarchy and PFMAILBOX2 has secondary - not sure if this makes any difference?
    As usual, any help appreciated.
    Regards
    Steve

  • Exchange 2013 EAC Service Pack 1 New mailbox cannot see all OUs when selecting Browse with "Exchange Organization Management " permissions

    Single forest 2 Domains. When I go to create a new mailbox in the Exchange Admin  Centre and "Browse" the Organizational Unit. I can only see a few OU in the Parent Domain and most in the Child Domain. I have tried "expand All" and
    cannot see anywhere in the EAC to set a "Recipient Scope". The account I am using has "Exchange Organization Management " rights and is a Domain Admin as well.
    The Exchange servers are members of the Root Domain.
    In the "Select an Organizational Unit" menu there is a message "There are more results available than are currently displayed". I have tried searching as well and cannot find OUs that I should be able to.
    All the servers have had Exchange 2013 Service pack 1 installed.
    Any suggestions?
    Regards,
    John

    Changing that setting resulted in the ECP site being inaccessible. So I changed it back
    I have copied the user accounts to test with.
    Originals:
    User1: can see OU's when making a new user through the ECP (access: domain, exchange recipient admin)
    User2: cannot. (Enterprise, domain, exchange, schema admin)
    Test users:
    test user1: copied from user 1, cannot see any OU's when creating a new user.
    test user2: copied from user 2, can see all OU's when creating a new user.
