Exchange 2013 Management Tools Install Error on Win8

Hello,
I'm having some trouble installing the management tools for Exchange 2013 on Windows 8. While going through the install if I leave "Automatically install Windows Server roles and features that are required to install Exchange Server" check I get
this error...

If I uncheck that option and just check the Management Tools option, the error message changes to...

Hi,
To install the Exchange 2013 Management Tools, there are many prerequisites we need to understand before installation. And even
we must manually install some required software.
Here are some references that may be helpful to you:

    Hi Sprabhune,
    It should work.
    Did you install the tool by GUI or cmd?
    Please select "Automatically install Windows Server roles and features that are required to install Exchange Server" to have the Setup wizard install required Windows prerequisites.
    If possible, please try to install the tool on Windows 7/8 client to test.

  • Installing Exchange 2013 management tools

    I am unable to install Exchange Management Tools on other server in network. I am getting error when trying to run unattended setup "exchange server.msi failed. Fatal error during installation. Error code is 1603. Last error reported by the MSI

    Hi,
    Please try the following cmdlet to solve this issue.
    set-executionpolicy unrestricted
    If this doesn’t work, please try to copy the
    ConsoleInitialize.ps1 from a working server to this server then reinstall Exchange management Tool.
    If this still doesn’t work, we should consider to re-download  Exchange Server 2013 Management Pack from this
    site, then try to install.

  • Exchange 2013 CU5 fresh install suffering issues with services not starting and coexistence with 2007

    Hi everyone,
    Hope you can help me out on a couple of issues I've been experiencing during the initial stages of a project to upgrade an on premise Exchange 2007 to 2013.
    On Monday last week I installed the first Exchange 2013 server into the network after a few weeks of careful planning, information gathering and remediation of our current Exchange 2007 environment and associated systems.
    The server itself has been having some issues from the word go, some of which I've resolved but none that are show stoppers but I want to get them resolved before building more servers and setting up the planned 2 x 2 node DAG's
    The main problems are as follows:
    There's usually one service that does not start following an OS restart and it's not always the same service. So far I've seen the following not start: DAG Management, Migration Workflow, Anti-spam Update, Unified Messaging, UM Call Router, Transport
    Service.
    The critical system event log entries are complaining of timeouts when the services are starting up but I can't imagine that the servers boot time is too long...  It's a 2 vCPU/12Gb vRAM VM, Windows 2012 R2
    I receive an error in the Event Log regarding RPC over HTTP Proxy
    to one of the 2007 CAS servers (not our primary one). The first error was because the Windows Component was missing but since installing it, disabling Outlook Anywhere, reenabling it, restarting the server, I now have a new error which is shown further down
    this post
    The Exchange 2013 server install is pretty default, CAS/MBX roles and some basic configuration performed such as new DNS entries, Public SSL certs installed and assigned, URL's updates, SCP updated. I have review and resolved some errors from the event logs
    for over chatty warnings about disk space (the warning is that we have loads of space...)
    This is a brief outline of the environment:
    Exchange 2007 SP3 RU13
    UK - Two physical locations in a stretch LAN (100Mb WAN)
    4 x CCR Cluster Mailbox Servers in two separate CCR Clusters
    Cluster 1 - Windows 2003 R2: One physical, one virtual server - don't ask, legacy install and I know the virtual is not a supported configuration.
    Cluster 2 - Windows 2008 R2: Two virtuals - New cluster built following a 4 day failure of Cluster 1. The aim was to move to supported config and decommission cluster 1.
    Note: Migration of Cluster 1 to Cluster 2 was halted as 2013 was so close it seemed pointless to continue the migration and instead migrate both Clusters to 2013 once in production.
    2 x Virtual Windows 2003 R2 - Hub Transport Servers
    2 x Virtual Windows 2003 R2 - Client Access Servers
    1 x Virtual Windows 2003 R2 - Unified Messaging Server
    1 x Virtual Windows 2003 R2 - Edge Transport Server (DMZ)
    US - One physical location
    1 x Physical Windows 2008 R2 - Mailbox, Client Access, Hub Transport Server
    Exchange 2013 CU5
    UK - Installed into same site along side Exchange 2007 servers
    1 x Virtual Windows 2012 R2 - Mailbox, Client Access Server
    Problem 2 Error Message - Please note, server names and domain name changed:

    Hi Off2work,
    I've gone through the article and the Get-OutlookAnywhere commandlet looks fine (especially when compared with our working CAS).
    Having looked through IIS I have spotted two additional misconfigurations with a missing setting to require SSL on the RPC folder and also the .NET version was not set.
    I've now set those to Require SSL and .NET 2.0.5072 however this has made no difference following restarted of both 2007 CAS and 2013 servers.
    I could potentially reinstall the CAS server or additionally decommission it as we have two of them and the other is not causing any errors with the 2013 server. This broken CAS server doesn't even have DNS records (except it's own hostname) or firewall
    rules pointing to it, nor does it have any active client connections if I check with a quick netstat -a
    As for UM, it's next on my list following some client/server connectivity testing so I have not yet assigned the SSL to the services or setup the dial plans, etc.
    The services do start most of the time, but others then don't so it's not a consistent issue with just this service. On my current boot, the DAG Management service failed to start, but again I don't have a DAG implemented yet.
    I will see if UM drops out of that list once I've configured it shortly
    Thanks for taking the time to respond (and that goes to DareDevil too)

  • Connect to Exchange 2007 Mailboxes with Exchange 2013 Management shell

    Hello,
    I was wondering if it is possible to use the Exchange 2013 Management Shell with the older version of Exchange 2007. When I run the console now it give me an error saying no exchange servers are available in the Active Directory site. When I use Exchange
    management shell for 2007 the errors do not appear. Wondering if the management shell is backwards compatible.
    Thanks,

    No. your management shell MUST be the same roll-up version of exchange. I have applied updates and learned the hard way to block all updates that go beyond the server version you are
    running.
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/240.exchange-server-and-update-rollup-bui...
    To this end, you can use the same installation media that was used to install your Exchange server "Provided you are hosting your own", just install the management console instead of the whole thing,

  • Exchange 2010 management tools and others

    Win2k8 domain, Exchange 2010 servers
    We want to move to Win8.1 but we, the admins, are preventing it because our tools like the Exchange 2010 Management tool doesn't work with Win8.0 so we're stuck with Win7.
    I've googled around and most suggestion never worked.
    Does Microsoft have any plans at all to have Exchange 2010 management tools and other tools we use to manage our domain work with Win8.1?

    Hi Rino, 
    Thanks for your sharing and efforts put on this issue.

    Hi wert
    Thank you for your question.
    We could run Set U to make sure the logon user is domain administrator, because we use another account logon without any problems. We could check if some permissions are missing for administrator.
    We could refer to the following steps to delete administrator profile to check if the issue persist:
    Open up "Control Panel | System and Security | System"
    In the dialog click on "Advanced system settings" (requires Admin rights)
    The "System Properties" dialog will be displayed
    Make sure you are in the "Advanced" register
    In the "User Profiles" section click on "Settings"
    The "User Profiles" dialog is displayed
    Select administrator account and Delete it.
    If there are any questions regarding this issue, please be free to let me know. 
    Best Regard,
    Jim

    There is definitely more amusing endeavours in this world, than trying to understand why an SQL Server install failed. The log files are verbose - but somehow the real information about what went wrong seems to be hiding. Never have proverb about not being
    able to see the forest for all the trees felt more appropriate.
    Nevertheless, this is where things go sour:

    What account? I supposed you have already asked yourself that and just shaken your head.
    But there is another error code 2203, NET HELPMSG 2203 says "The password parameter is invalid." And I note that the source is apparently on a share.
    So where is my guess: the MSI installer - which runs as a service, somehow does not have permissions to read the installation from the share. Or is trying to log on to the share with your username/password? No, I don't know, I am just speculating widely.
    But my advice would be to copy the installation directory from the share to a local disk.
    Maybe that CryptAcquireContext is significant as well - I don't know.
    Oh, wait, here is something just before the section above in the log:
    MSI (s) (F4:EC) [09:04:15:729]: Note: 1: 2205 2:  3: Environment
    MSI (s) (F4:EC) [09:04:15:729]: Note: 1: 2228 2:  3: Environment 4: SELECT `Name`,`Value` FROM `Environment`,`Component` WHERE `Component_`=`Component` AND (`Component`.`Action` = 1 OR `Component`.`Action` = 2)
    Action start 9:04:15: WriteEnvironmentStrings.
    2205 is "The logon processor did not add the message alias." I see that in a successful log that I have, so that is probably benign. But 2228 seems to be
    "There are too many names in the user accounts database."
    Exactly what that means, I have no clue, but it could be a Windows problem.

  • Exchange SP1 Edge Transport Install Error

    Hi everyone,
    I've successfully installed multiple Mailbox and CAS 2013 SP1 servers into an existing Exchange 2010 environment.
    However, when I get to the Edge Transport role on a separate server, at step 7 of 9, it throws 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.".
    Any ideas what could be causing this? I haven't been able to find anything of significance while searching around...
    Thanks!

  • Exchange 2013 MSExchange Certificate Notification Error 2001

    We're in the same boat.  This is a production installation, running on Windows Server 2012, that we've been getting that error on for months.  We just updated to CU3 and the error is still there.  It doesn't seem to impact anything as far
    as I can see, so I'm not certain that it matters.
    For what it's worth, we use a single certificate for the IIS,POP,IMAP,SMTP services on all of our CAS servers.  It's issued from our internal CA and has ~13 entries in the SAN for various purposes.  It was issued from a custom template that we
    use for various purposes, so it's possible there's something about the certificate that something somewhere doesn't like.   Unfortunately the error doesn't seem to contain any specifics, so it's difficult to tell what's happening.
    The event immediately after the error is information event 2002:
    A round of expiration check has finished. The next round is scheduled at...
    Also at the same time there is a warning in the system log for Event 6037, LSA (LsaSrv)
    The program w3wp.exe, with the assigned process ID 2804, could not authenticate locally by using the target name HTTP/owa.langslb.domain.com. The target name used is not valid. A target name should refer to one of the local computer names, for example,
    the DNS host name.
     Try a different target name.
    The address is the address used by our hardware load balancer for our CAS servers.  The IP for the name will be one of the CAS.  On reboot, even if the load balancer doesn't have time to detect one of the systems being offline, it would have a
    percentage chance of getting the IP of an already online system. 
    I have the exact same error with Exchange 2013 CU3 CAS servers. can any one explain what is that about? and how to resolve it?

  • SCSM Management Server install error

    Hi All
    I have a curious error with regards to an SCSM 2012 R2 Management Server install to a Windows Server 2012 with local SQL Server 2012 Standard); the SCSM 2012 R2 Data warehouse Server installed fine on a separate server.  I've checked that the install
    account has full SQL, Local and Domain Admins (for install), I've also fired the install from an elevated command prompt but with same error, I've also checked that PowerShell is set to Unrestricted.  There is also mention of a Timeout in the below error,
    which has lead me to think it could possibly be SQL SPN issue, however please see below and let me know if anyone has seen this before \ any suggestions welcome!
    The error I'm seeing in the MSI log is as follows:

    Thanks Thomas
    Yep had checked permissions, see below.  Any others that I may have over looked that you can think of?
    1. Login \ install account as local Admin on the Server
    2. Login \ install account has full SQL SysAdmin rights, was also used for installing the SQL Instance locally
    3. Checked account in AD so that it is ok for Kerberos Delegation
    One thing is that I have specified this account for all account options during install (since its a test environment), in production would usually create distinct accounts, is this likely to be an issue though?
    Will attempt install again but use Local System etc instead of specifying my domain account just to check \ see if error changes.
    Kind Regards
