Exchange 2013 SP1: messages still stuck in Drafts folder

Hello!
The second question on Exchange 2013SP1 that I asked when I was working with Exchange 2013:
New lab setup: a Windows 2012R2 DC (server1) + Exchange 2013SP1 (server2). Exchange 2013SP1 installation completed successfully. I created three mailboxes: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]
Now when I'm trying to send a message (from user1 to user, for example) it gets stuck in the Drafts folder.
I manually set up my DNS server in ECP:
as described here: http://thoughtsofanidlemind.com/2013/03/25/exchange-2013-dns-stuck-messages - but the problem persists.
And this problem
"On every single installation / that I’ve done of Exch 2013 in multiple labs, when set as a single mailbox server, messages have never been able to leave the “drafts” folder. Not a single instance where it worked correctly. Messages
leaving a mailbox, destined to the exact same server do not route, let alone use any send-connector to leave the organization.
Now, take it to the next step, and install a second mailbox server. The very second that services finish installing, and AD replication (if using multiple sites) settles down, mail-flow on the first server starts working absolutely flawlessly. Whatever
changes are done to AD from the second mailbox server being installed in regards to mailflow, it completely resolves the issues of the first server holding onto the messages."
...is exactly the same as mine...but in Exchange 2013 SP1 ( Messages leaving a mailbox, destined to the exact same server do not route).
Can anybody from MS tell me if it's a bug or by design??? I've NEVER had an Exchange installation without this issue...
Thank you in advance,
Michael

Hi,
I have never come across such a situation in my labs(all roles install in a single server), and there is no Microsoft documentation mentioned this issue.
In addition, Microsoft does not oppose the Exchange installed on a single server(although not recommend).
I recommend you check if all the exchange services are running, and try to restart Exchange Mailbox Transport Submission & Exchange Mailbox Assistants services.
Hope this helps!
Thanks.

  • Exchange 2013 SP1 CU8 installation stuck

    Does anyone have any suggestions or did you experience a similar issue?

    Thanks and best regards,
    Sebastian

    Hi,
    According to your post, I understand that install Exchange 2013 SP1 CU8 in a DAG with MBX role failed with error “Cmdlet failed. Cmdlet New-PerfCounters, parameters -DefinitionFileName ‘ADDriverCachePerformanceCounters.xml’”.
    If I misunderstand your concern, please do not hesitate to let me know.
    I want to double confirm whether you deploy clean install or implement upgrade an existing Exchange Server 2013 installation to Cumulative Update 8.
    To rebuild all Performance counters including extensible and third-party counters, type the following commands at an Administrative command prompt. Press ENTER after each command:
    1. Rebuilding the counters:
        cd c:\windows\system32
        lodctr /R
    2. Resyncing the counters with Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI):
        WINMGMT.EXE /RESYNCPERF
    3. Stop and restart the Performance Logs and Alerts service.
    4. Stop and restart the Windows Management Instrumentation service.
    If the issue persists, please run to reload all the perf counters. For your reference:

  • Exchange 2013 SP1 users not receiving quota warning email message

    Hi,
    We are on Exchange 2013 SP1 and Exchange 2010 SP3 co-existence mode and currently migrating users from Exchange 2010 to 2013.  We have noticed that users are not receiving email message when their mailbox quota warning when its near to maximum limit.
    If I log in via OWA it shows the notification (Pop up) that your mailbox is almost full but no message received in email.  Most of the users do not log into OWA but only uses Outlook.
    It looks like other people are also seeing this similar issue but I am unable to find any solution for it.
    How users will know if their mailbox is almost full if they are traveling and only using Mobile phone for emails to send and receive.
    Thanks,
    Raman

  • Coexistence & Upgrade Exchange 2010 SP3 Unified Messaging to Exchange 2013 SP1 UM

    Hello Experts,
    We're doing Exchange 2010 SP3 to Exchange 2013 SP1 upgrade.
    This upgrade also include Unified Messaging component which is currently working with Exchange 2010 SP3 and Lync 2013.
    We have one dial plan and its SIP URI and Secured.
    Looking for high level steps to plan coexistence and upgrade of Unified Messaging  from Exchange 2010 SP3 to Exchange 2013 SP1 integrated with Lync 2013. I'll also appreciate tips on what kind of certificate and its Subject name(s).
    Microsoft documentation is not very clear and I found it confusing for my scenario. Since I we don't want any downtime for UM users, looking for some help.
    Thanks in advance for help.
    -DK

    Hello Hinte,
    Thanks for the information. I have been to this article which explains fresh deployment but doesn't address coexistence and migration scenario.
    I'm looking for high level steps only. Can anyone validate and suggest if I'm missing something!
    1) Install new CAS+MBX Server
    2) Move system mailbox as per MS documentation to Exchange 2013 MBX
    3) On CAS+MBX Server Enabled internal CA trusted Cert for UM Services.Internal
    CA certs contain only CAS+MBX server's FQDN only.UM services Startup Mode is set to "Dual".
    4) Assigned existing SIP URI Based Exchange 2010 Dial plan to New Exchange 2013 Servers. 
    5) Run Exchucutil.ps1
    in Exchange 2013 and OcsUMUtil in Lync 2013 (Again?)
    Will this be enough or Do I need to create New Auto attendant or
    Haunt Group etc?
    Thanks for all the help!

  • Exchange 2013 SP1 EDGE role content filtering ?

    Hello,
    Have Exchange 2013 SP1 with CU5 with antispam enabled on mailbox role server. And i wonder if i deploy 2013  Edge role, will i get more granular content filter control, like there is in Office 365? For example: i want to treat empty messages as not
    spam.
    I have read that control of Edge server is done ONLY by powershell. So if edge role is deployed, still there is no content filter control in ECP (like in office365) ??

    Hi,
    The Content Filter agent assigns a spam confidence level (SCL) rating to each message. The SCL rating is a number between 0 and 9. A higher SCL rating indicates that a message is more likely to be spam.
    Based on my knowledge, I'm afraid we can't filter the empty messages and treat them as not spam.
    Here is an article about content filtering in Exchange 2013 for your reference.

  • Exchange 2013 SP1 and CUCM 9.1.2 - Exch not recognizing called extension

    I think I'm almost there in getting Exchange 2013 SP1 UM working with CUCM 9.1.2...I've got two issues at the moment that I need a little help with.
    1) When I dial my VM pilot (6040) from a UM enabled extension it prompts to enter an extension. When I dial the same extension and let it ring to VM, Exchange picks up and says "the person you are trying to reach does not have a valid voice mail box
    on our system".
    2) This just started happening this afternoon, when I dial my VM pilot (6040) exch3 picks up as thats what I have my route pattern pointing to. If I enter the extension of a mailbox on exch2, I get stuck in a endless loop.
    I've followed this post as a guide but it hasn't resolved my issue.
    https://supportforums.cisco.com/discussion/11914031/exchange-2013-um-and-cucm-86
    My Exchange environment looks like this:
    Site 1:
    exch1 - CAS/Mailbox, used for mainly utility type work, journal, dedicated SMTP flows etc
    exch2 - CAS/Mailbox, part DAG13
    exch3 - CAS/Mailbox, part of DAG13
    Site 2:
    exch2dr - CAS/Mailbox, part of DAG13
    exch3dr - CAS/Mailbox, part of DAG13
    DAG13 is stretched between two sites, there are no users at our DR site so CUCM is pointing to Site 1 for UM. Each site has an internet facing CAS-only server for OWA/EAS etc.
    Any help is greatly appreciated. I'd love to get rid of Unity. 
    EDIT:
    I just found this event in the event logs:
    The Microsoft Exchange Unified Messaging service on the Mailbox server received a diverted call with ID "d51600-3a3140c5-9b8-c1414ac@EXCH3-IPADDR" for extension "4099" on UM dial plan "CUCM" from UM IP gateway "CUCM IP",
    but no UM-enabled mailbox for the corresponding extension could be found. Please check the extension and make sure that the corresponding mailbox is enabled for UM and associated with the correct UM dial plan.

    9.1.2 I think it is, we upgraded to avoid the known DNS bug
    I cant see how to PM you either
    The crux of it was outlined below with some tweaks
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/canitpro/archive/2014/04/30/step-by-step-integration-between-exchange-2013-um-and-cisco-unified-communication-manager.aspx
    As we have multiple combined role servers, our trunks are set up as follows:
    1. 1 x CAS Trunk - contains all CAS Servers on port 5060
    2. 4 x MBX Trunks - contains Maibox Server with ports 5062-5068
    On top of that, we had to Allow "Redirecting Diversion Header Delivery - Inbound (and Outbound)" on the CAS Trunk but DISABLE it on the Mailbox Trunks
    Also, make sure that you are using Telephone Extension Dial plans in Exchange 2013 (Despite them being unable to be associated with a 13 Server - EX13 answers for all calls anyway)
    Lastly, the MS documentation is a little strange - it says that as your last step of UM migration, you should point your Call Manager to 2013 - I don't agree with that statement, EX13 routes calls back to 2010 UM Servers perfectly fine, so treat it the same
    as any other CAS based service - point to 2013, and it will handle the rest

    I found that it could restart like many times in a day, but
    Throttling does not let it, just one restart per day.
    I already spent four days trying to find problem but no luck.
    Try'ed to add override
    Add-GlobalMonitoringOverride
    -Identity Exchange\ActiveDirectoryConnectivityConfigDCServerReboot  -ItemType Responder -PropertyName Enabled -PropertyValue 0 -Duration 60.00:00:00
    but
    after 
    (Get-WinEvent
    -LogName Microsoft-Exchange-ActiveMonitoring/responderdefinition | % {[XML]$_.toXml()}).event.userData.eventXml | ?{$_.Name -like “ActiveDirectoryConnectivityConfigDCServerReboot"} | ft name,enabled
    still shows propertyValue 1, and servers are restarting no matter what, I just dont want to disable HealtManager
    Service.
    Try'ed to recreate all performance counters, did'nt worked
    Try'ed to create prefered domain controller, did'nt worked
    Try'ed to play with healthSet 'AD', but there is almost no information about it in TechNet, so I just looked which services are unhealthy, sometimes it shows ActiveDirectoryConnectivityServer
    or ActiveDirectoryConnectivityConfigDCServer as unhealthy, but after few minutes it goes to
    healthy, problem that Exchange could already restart the server
    mainly reason I think is: 
    The AD Health Set has detected a problem with Server.contoso.com at 2014.04.09 06:33:11. The Health Manager is reporting that ActiveDirectoryConnectivityProbe/Server.contoso.com
    Failed with Error message:  Search took 1518 ms. Threshold 800 ms. Attempts to auto-recover from this condition have failed and requires Administrator attention. Exception Details: System.Exception:  Search took 1518 ms. Threshold 800 ms
    I really need some new ideas...
    EDIT: Exchange 2013 sp1 works perfectly in test lab, there are  cloned machines from production, the only difference is DomainController, there is just one (server), no replications, and no subdomains (production domain have subdomain). 
    Running DCDiag shows no errors

    Hello Everyone,
    We have 2 CAS and 4 Mailbox server that were installed from SP1 and seeing the same issue.  This is a clean install still with no mailboxes migrated over as of yet.  Opened a case with MS.  also ran:
    Add-GlobalMonitoringOverride
    -Identity Exchange\ActiveDirectoryConnectivityConfigDCServerReboot  -ItemType Responder -PropertyName Enabled -PropertyValue 0 -Duration 60.00:00:00
    Waiting
    for MS to get back and to see how this workaround does.  Seems like the original issue was not resolved completely?
    Will
    post back when we get an update.  Changing the DirectoryActiveMonitoringContext.xml and the above workaround do not seem suitable for us.  We would like to see a complete resolution for this.
    Good
    luck!

    Hi ,
    In exchange 2013 sp1 SUBMITFAIL event id is happening for some messages .But at the second time that the same message is delivered perfectly to the end users.
    My question is simple ,is this an bug in exchange 2013 sp1 if so on which CU it will be corrected ?We have to update to our customers so all of us please provide your suggestions as soon as possible.
    Thanks & Regards S.Nithyanandham

    Hi Allen Wang ,
    Thanks a lot for your response.
    Which version are you used? Is this issue arise after install update for Exchange server? 
    We are using exchange 2013 sp1 Ent edition.This issue is been existing in my environment when we start to use exchange 2013 and it is not from sp1 .
    Also, what your means of “second time”, server retry to send or send failed then user click to resend?
    When an user send an email for the first time to some of the recipient's it is reaching only to the few recipient's mailboxes and the email to the remaining recipients gets failed with the event ID "SUBMITFAIL" on the message tracking log.
    Same time if we forward that same message to the failed recipients it went and delivered successfully.
    Note : Apart from message tracking log i didn't found anything helpful in protocol and event viewer logs.
    Below link is for your Reference :
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/fr-FR/ae61d80c-58da-4f47-b83c-66b123b2faf4/exchange-2013-mailflow-and-the-hosts-file?forum=exchangesvrgeneral
    Above is the link which is saying that this issue will be resolved in exchange 2013 sp1 and also it says it an bug in exchange 2013 CU3 .But still on my end the problems occurs in exchange 2013 CU3 as well as in exchange 2013 SP1.
    Please help me out yaar this issue is raising in my production environment.
    Thanks & Regards S.Nithyanandham

  • Cannot write email body in OWA with Exchange 2013 SP1 CU6

    Hi,
    I have a problem with Exchange 2013 SP1 with CU6.
    All of OWA user cannot write in the body of email. They can write the Object and the recipient but they cannot select body and write the body message. We have try with multiple Web brother and desactivate all Add-on but the problem still there...
    The only way that works is to respond to an email, and in that case, it's working, we can write normally in the body of email.
    Have you an idea ?
    Thanks in advance!
    Sebastien

    Hi, 
    After contacting Microsoft support, we have found the solution.
    The problem appear after we have recently install the patch described in this KB 2997209:
    https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2997209?wa=wsignin1.0
    But on 2013 Mailbox Server, Echange is not installed in the default path C:\ but on D:\
    So we have to manually copy the content of folder D:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V15\ClientAccess\Owa\prem\15.0.995.29 in the folder 15.0.995.31 (MAKE a BACKUP of FOLDER BEFORE!)
    No need to reboot, or restart IIS, it's working after that!

  • Seemingly successful install of Exchange 2013 SP1 turns into many errors in event logs after upgrade to CU7

    I have a new Exchange 2013 server with plans to migrate from my current Exchange 2007 Server. 
    I installed Exchange 2013 SP1 and the only errors I saw in the event log seemed to be long standing known issues that did not indicate an actual problem (based on what I read online). 
    I updated to CU7 and now lots of errors have appeared (although the old ones seem to have been fixed so I have that going for me). 
    Currently the Exchange 2013 server is not in use and clients are still hitting the 2007 server.
    Issue 1)
    After each reboot I get a Kernel-EventTracing 2 error.  I cannot find anything on this on the internet so I have no idea what it is.
    Session "FastDocTracingSession" failed to start with the following error: 0xC0000035
    I did read other accounts of this error with a different name in the quotes but still can’t tell what this is or where it is coming from.
    Issue 2)
    I am still getting 5 MSExchange Common 106 errors even after reregistering all of the perf counters per this page:
    https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2870416?wa=wsignin1.0
    One of the perf counters fails to register using the script from the link above.

    Issue 3)
    I appear to have some issues related to the healthmailboxes. 
    I get MSExchangeTransport 1025 errors for multiple healthmailboxes.
    SMTP rejected a (P1) mail from 'HealthMailbox23b10b91745648819139ee691dc97eb6@<my domain>.local' with 'Client Proxy <my server>' connector and the user authenticated as 'HealthMailbox23b10b91745648819139ee691dc97eb6'. The Active Directory
    lookup for the sender address returned validation errors. Microsoft.Exchange.Data.ProviderError
    I reran setup /prepareAD to try and remedy this but I am still getting some.
    Issue 4)
    I am getting an MSExchange RBAC 74 error. 
    (Process w3wp.exe, PID 984) Connection leak detected for key <my domain>.local/Admins/Administrator in Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Authorization.WSManBudgetManager class. Leaked Value 1.
    Issue 5)
    I am getting MSExchange Assistants 9042 warnings on both databases.
    Service MSExchangeMailboxAssistants. Probe Time Based Assistant for database Database02 (c83dbd91-7cc4-4412-912e-1b87ca6eb0ab) is exiting a work cycle. No mailboxes were successfully processed. 2 mailboxes were skipped due to errors. 0 mailboxes were
    skipped due to failure to open a store session. 0 mailboxes were retried. There are 0 mailboxes in this database remaining to be processed.
    Some research suggested this may be related to deleted mailboxes however I have never had any actual user mailboxes on this server. 
    If they are healthmailboxes or arbitration mailboxes that might make sense but I am unsure of what to do on this.
    Issue 6)
    At boot I am getting an MSExchange ActiveSync warning 1033
    The setting SupportedIPMTypes in the Web.Config file was missing. 
    Using default value of System.Collections.Generic.List`1[System.String].
    I don't know why but this forum is removing some of my spacing that would make parts of this easier to read.

    Hi Eric
    Yes I have uninstalled and reinstalled Exchange 2013 CU7 for the 3<sup>rd</sup> time. 
    I realize you said one issue per forum thread but since I already started this thread with many issues I will at least post what I have discovered on them in case someone finds their way here from a web search.
    I have an existing Exchange 2007 server in the environment so I am unable to create email address policies that are defined by “recipient container”. 
    If I try and do so I get “You can't specify the recipient container because legacy servers are detected.”
     So I cannot create a normal email address policy and restrict it to an OU without resorting to some fancy filtering. 
    Instead what I have done is use PS to modify extensionAttribute1 (otherwise known as Custom Attribute 1 to exchange) for all of my users. 
    I then applied an address policy to them and gave it the highest priority. 
    Then I set a default email address policy for the entire organization. 
    After reinstalling Exchange all of my system mailboxes were created with the internal domain name. 
    So issue number 3 above has not come up. 
    For issue number one above I have created a new thread:
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/7eb12b89-ae9b-46b2-bd34-e50cd52a4c15/microsoftwindowskerneleventtracing-error-2-happens-twice-at-boot-ex2013cu7?forum=exchangesvrdeploy
    For issue number four I have posted to this existing thread where there is so far no resolution:
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/exchange/en-US/2343730c-7303-4067-ae1a-b106cffc3583/exchange-error-id-74-connection-leak-detected-for-key?forum=exchangesvradmin
    Issue number Five I have managed to recreate and get rid of in more than one way. 
    If I create a new database in ECP and set the database and log paths where I want, then this error will appear. 
    If I create the database in the default location and then use EMS to move it and set the log path, then the error will not appear. 
    The error will also appear (along with other errors) if I delete the health mailboxes and let them get recreated by restarting the server or the Health Manager service. 
    If I then go and set the retention period for deleted mailboxes to 0 days and wait a little while, these will all go away. 
    So my off hand guess is that these are caused by orphaned system mailboxes.
    For issue number six I have posted to this existing thread where there is so far no resolution:
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/exchange/en-US/dff62411-fad8-4d0c-9bdb-037374644845/event-1033-msexchangeactivesync-warning?forum=exchangesvrmobility
    So for the remainder of this thread we can try and tackle issue number two which is the perf counters. 
    The exact same 5 perf counter were coming up and this had been true each time I have uninstalled and reinstalled Exchange 2013CU7. 
    Actually to be more accurate a LOT of perf counter errors come up after the initial install, but reloading the perf counters using the script I posted above reduces it to the same five. 
    Using all of your suggestions so far has not removed these 5 remaining errors either.  Since there is no discernible impact other than these errors at boot I am not seriously bothered by them but as will all event log errors, I would prefer
    to make them go away if possible.

  • What happend New-MailboxExportRequest cmdlet in exchange 2013 SP1 is missing?

    Cmdlet New-MailboxExportRequest is not recognize cmdlet in Exchange 2013 SP1
    How can i do export mailbox to pst file in exchange 2013 SP1?

    You might be facing this issue because of not having the rights to execute the New-MailboxExportRequest CMDLET.
    Follow the steps given below in order to export the mailboxes into PST file
    1. Open the Exchange Console and run:
    New-ManagementRoleAssignment -Name "Import Export PST" -SecurityGroup "Organization Management" -Role “Mailbox Import Export"
    This will generate a new role group called Import Export PST to the Oranization Management group with the role Mailbox Import Export.
    You should Close and Restart the Exchange Management System again so that the changes made will get reflected in the settings, otherwise you will still get the same erroriIf not
    restarted. Now move to the next steps.
    2. Assign “Mailbox Import Export” role to it.
    3.  Add Desired Users to Role Group
    4.  Create Network Share ( Exchange Trusted Subsystem group has read/write permission to NTFS Permissions)
    5. Run PS New-MailboxExportRequest
    6. Monitor New-MailboxExportRequest
    Verify PST File has been created on the network Share and you are done.
    If you get the same error again, then there will be some hardware or software issues due to which you are not able to export mailboxes into PST files. In that case, you can make
    use of any third party tool like Stellar Phoenix EDB To PST converter, which will help you to export your exchange database files to PST files easily and quickly. You can try this software by downloading its demo directly from their site http://www.stellarinfo.com/email-repair/edb-pst-converter.php

  • Exchange 2013 SP1 setup fails at prerequisite Analysis

    Regards, Manu
    Manu van Winkel

    Hi, thanks for the answer.
    I restarted the server and did the "run as administrator": same result.
    The first errormessage in the exchangesetup.log is:
    [ERROR] Setup encountered a problem while validating the state of Active Directory: Active Directory server  is not available. Error message: Active directory response: The LDAP server is unavailable.  See the Exchange setup log for more information
    on this error.
    When I run dcdiag /s:DC01 from EX01 it passes all tests except:
    DFSREvent "The RPC server is unavailable"
    KccEvent "The RPC server is unavailable."
    SystemLog  "The RPC server is unavailable."
    Could these be of any influence?
    Running dcdiag on DC01 passes all tests.
    The only thing I changed after setting up DC01, was changing the fixed IP-adres from 192.168.25.3 to 192.168.25.2, but I ran ipconfig /flushdns and ipconfig /registerdns and dcdiag /fix afterwards.
    The only roles installed on DC01 are AD DS (I tried installing exchange before and after adding the AD DS role), AD, DNS, DHCP and Fileservices
    I don't know where to look anymore....

  • Exchange 2013 SP1 Installation Errors I Cannot Resolve

    Good Afternoon All -
    Note:  I updated this post an hour after posting.  Still no solution, but please see updated info at end of this post)
    I'm trying to introduce Exchange into an existing, small environment.  The server I'm trying to install it onto is an SBS 2011 server (single server.)  Even though SBS comes with Exchange, I found out that it's installation was corrupted and someone
    had attempted to uninstall it before.  Yes, it's being installed onto a server with a DC.  I considered creating a Hyper-V VM on the server for Exchange, but thought it may be better to try to install directly onto server instead.
    Before I started, I made sure all Exchange data had been removed.  I checked for and deleted (if present) all Exchange-related objects in ADSI, ADU&C, files, and registry entries.
    When I try to install Exchange 2013 SP1, I get the below errors.  I know that some are easily resolved by installing pre-requisites - however - others aren't - especially the pending reboot one.  I've restarted the server many times when making
    changes or applying various updates and still get flagged to restart during installation.  I've tried the SBS 2011 repair disc as well, but had many issues with it.  In all honesty, the whole server needs to be wiped and re-installed, but
    cannot do at this point.
    Besides the errors below, I've zipped up the ExchangeSetupLogs folder and placed them in the link below.  Also below are system specs.  The only edit I made in them is a find/replace for server and domain name.
    ExchangeSetupLogs Folder
    System Specs
    Xeon E31270 3.4Ghz
    16gb RAM
    Windows Server 2011 SBS x64 (Domain Controller Role Installed & Used)
    C:\ - RAID 1 = 500gb
    D:\ - SATA HDD = 320gb
    E:\ - SATA HDD = 320GB
    Should I perhaps try to install to a VM on the server or think that would use too many unnecessary resources?
    Any help would be appreciated - Thanks!

  • Exchange 2013 SP1 | Another HTTP 500.0.0 Error

    Help!
    We are in the middle of migrating from Exchange 2010 SP3 to Exchange 2013 SP1 and we are being plagued with HTTP 500 errors on every Exchange 2013 server now.
    I have two Client Access servers installed (EXCHFE01 & EXCHFE02) and one backend mailbox server (EXCHMB03) with the Client Access role also installed (for troubleshooting purposes). Once I get everything working I'll install two backend 2013 servers
    with the mailbox role only for production (load-balanced, clustered, etc). I still have two Exchange 2010 mailbox servers left since one has a single large mailbox left on it and the other hosts public folders. I'll get to migrating those later. All Exchange
    2013 servers are running Windows Server 2012. All are on the same LAN and no firewalls are between them.
    On all three 2013 servers (EXCHFE01, EXCHFE02, EXCHMB03) I'm getting the dreaded HTTP 500 error whether I try to get to OWA or ECP. This did work at one point where I could at least login to the mailbox server (EXCHMB03) and migrate all my mailboxes over
    to it. Sometime this morning after the two Client Access servers were installed the mailbox server stopped working (HTTP 500 errors). This is very frustrating because I can't even login to a console to manage Exchange from any server at this point.
    Both Client Access servers aren't really showing anything of value in the event logs or the IIS logs. The mailbox server (EXCHMB03) does show the following event 3002:
    Protocol /Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync failed to process request from identity NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM. Exception: Microsoft.Exchange.Security.Authentication.BackendRehydrationException: Rehydration failed. Reason: Source server 'NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM' does not have token serialization permission.
    at Microsoft.Exchange.Security.Authentication.BackendRehydrationModule.ProcessRequest(HttpContext httpContext)
    at Microsoft.Exchange.Security.Authentication.BackendRehydrationModule.OnAuthenticateRequest(Object source, EventArgs args).
    ...and I get the following when I run the Exchange Management Shell tool on the same mailbox server (along with lots of other red HTML text):
    More Information:
    This error means that there was a problem while processing the request. The request was received by the Web server, but during processing a fatal error occurred, causing the 500 error.
    The Client Access servers show the following errors:

    I've tried all sorts of recommended fixes but none have worked so far:
    ADSIEdit and remove msExchCanaryData0 data
    Reinstall Exchange multiple times
    Rebooted multiple times
    This article: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/exchange/en-US/08d3777c-dc03-4411-8c87-7db37d2f406a/exchange-2013-owa-login-error-http-500?forum=exchangesvrclients
    Rebooted DCs multiple times (no exchange servers are DCs)
    I'm sure I've left out a few troubleshooting steps since I've been working at this for two days. Can anybody offer any advice? I'm at my wits end here...

    Hi,
    Please check whether the mail.mydomain.com is pointed to your Exchange 2010 or Exchange 2013. Please run the following command to check your OWA virtual directores and ECP virtual directories:
    Get-OwaVirtualDirectory -ShowMailboxVirtualDirectories | Select Identity,name,Internalurl,ExternalUrl,*auth*
    Get-EcpVirtualDirectory -ShowMailboxVirtualDirectories | Select Identity,name,Internalurl,ExternalUrl,*auth*
    In IIS manager > Default Web Site, please make sure Anonymous Authentication is Enabled in Authentication. Confirm that "Require SSL" is checked on the SSL Settings of the default web site.

  • 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 description for Event ID 4027 from source MSExchange ADAccess cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.
    If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.
    The following information was included with the event:

    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.
