Exchange 2013 Edge Transport install fails

Question

I'm trying to install the Edge Transport for Exchange 2013 but it gets to step 7 of 9:
then give's the following error
Error:
The following error was generated when "$error.Clear();
 new-ExchangeServer
" was run: "Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: Cannot get child of ADObjectId: this is a GUID based ADObjectId.".
Then in event viewer I have the following two events.
Watson report about to be sent for process id: 260, with parameters: E12IIS, c-RTL-AMD64, 15.00.0847.032, ExSetupUI, M.E.Data.Directory, M.E.D.D.ADObjectId.GetChildId, System.ArgumentNullException, 2ac6, 15.00.0847.031.
ErrorReportingEnabled: True
and
Exchange Server component Edge Transport Role failed.
Error: Error:
The following error was generated when "$error.Clear();
 new-ExchangeServer
" was run: "Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: Cannot get child of ADObjectId: this is a GUID based ADObjectId.".
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.
I can run the setup again and it does finish but it doesn't show up in the list of servers in the ecp management. I've yet to find a solution on this issue if anyone has a suggestion or two it would be greatly appreciated.
