Help needed with server essentials 2012 R2 client backup failing

Help please.  I have installed WSE 2012 R2 on a new Lenovo TS140, everything seems to be working fine (I can map drives, browse folders, copy files back and forth to clients, run the server through dashboard from a client,
run the server through remote desktop from a client, use remotewebaccess etc.  But I can't get ANY of my clients to backup to the server.  The connector finds the server, installs on the client and the launchpad runs and says 'connected to server',
but when I try to run the backup, it fails after about 30 seconds and says "can't connect to server"...  This is all the same on clients that are Win 7 Home, Win 7 Pro, Win 8.1 pro and win 8.1 home, wired and wireless...  Have spent about
a week researching, clean reinstalling, examining router config etc... no luck.  Any thoughts or direction for help appreciated.  I'm not using storage spaces, and have run drive scans which all show healthy drives (1 SDD - OS, and separate HDs for
files and backups...

Status is 'no backups available', and no indication of anywhere to check to start, configure or set a backup.  Though I do have the "client computer backup tasks" available over in the tasks panel on the right, but that just sets times for backups to
occur.
The system is backing itself up nightly, but no clients.
I have a bunch of things listed on the BPA (probably as I did some tinkering based on other suggestions, and have tried to set up openDNS forwarding etc.  I'm not sure how to undo all that, so if a clean install would help I could do that rather
easily..)  BPA partial results listed below...

  • Autodiscover not working correctly when Office 365 integrated with Server Essentials 2012 R2

    Hello!
    This last weekend I setup our server as new and to ease the creation of users, integrated with our Office 365 (which to this point has worked fine) and imported the users. This had a somewhat unexpected side effect in that the import used the email address
    as for the user forename and then synced that change back to Office 365 and so needed to enter this information back in on the dashboard which synced back to Office 365. This may or may not have any relevance to our issue below.
    I should also point out that we have our own domain name so within the original Office 365 setup we had just one .onmicrosoft.com user with all the rest setup with our own domain name.
    At the weekend when it came to the client install, Outlook (2010 or 2013) would fail on the autodiscover with it asking again for credentials but critically displaying a server name of .contoso.com rather than the office365srvr.contoso.com . As I mention,
    Office 365 had been operating fine for some time and DNS records where checked and have been set for sometime. I spoke to Office 365 support and after a while come up with a temporary solution (so that I could complete the client installs) of assigning each
    user a onmicrosoft address, using that in the new account wizard to pick up the server correctly and then signing in the the Office 365 .contoso.com credentials.
    This worked OK to get us past the weekend (although I am having to reset up profiles on quite number of users where they get disconnected but with no credentials box appearing) but isn't a solution. The clients do not see public folders or their archives
    and of course we don't want to keep having to reset the profiles.
    I'm think that there must be something in the internal network that needs reconfiguring but I don't know what. I have tried pointing the client to an external DNS server just in case the internal DNS server was throwing the autodiscover out but this has
    made no difference.

    Ah - solved my own problem.
    Despite the domain DNS record looking OK and the Office 365 Portal domain checker not highlighting any issue, it looks as though the autodiscover is picking up an imap account provided by the web host.
    I've added an alias on the local DNS server to point to the Office 365 autodiscover server and this has solved the problem.

  • Windows Server Essentials 2012 error code: 2147942403 The system cannot find the path specified

    Running Windows Server 2012 Essentials with an external usb 3 drive as a backup device.  Using a Vantec hx enclosure with a WD Red drive. Last night the Dashboard saw the drive with about half the 4TB available for backup. A.M., I get "error code:
    2147942403 The system cannot find the path specified".
    Going to the server desktop, I see a message indicating that the usb device malfunctioned.  unplugging it, and plugging it back in, I now have it available via the dashboard.
    This has happened a couple times with two different drives in Vantec hx enclosures.
    A couple possibilities come to mind:
    the enclosures may both be bad...
    there is some problem with the system software and external usb drive.
    Thoughts?
    Suggestions for external enclosures?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you cannot backup the Windows Server Essentials 2012 and got "error code: 2147942403 The system cannot find the path specified". You found the usb device malfunctioned. 
    Can you backup the server when you unplugged the usb device, and plugged it back in? If you can backup the server when you replug the usb device, you need to engage the vendor to resolve the hard drive issues.

  • Receive a "Server is Not Available" error when trying to connect win 7 pro PC to Windows Server Essentials 2012 R2 Domain via Connector

    I am trying to connect Windows 7 Pro 64 bit SP1 Computers to a Windows Server 2012 Essentials R2 domain and I receive the following error: "The server is not available.  Try connecting to this computer again, or for more information, see Troubleshoot

    All of these computers were already attached to a different Windows Server Essentials 2012 R2 domain.  They have all been taken off the existing domain and added to a workgroup.  I have uninstalled the Server Essentials 2012 Connector and deleted
    all log files.  Has anyone else had this issue?  Any help would be greatly appreciated!  This is an urgent issue...  Thanks in advance all!

  • Cannot setup VPN (WMI failure?) - Server Essentials 2012 R2

    Hi,
    Last week i setup a new Server Essentials 2012 R2 (fresh install). Everything apart from the Anywhere Access has sucessfully been setup and the server is in a production Environment.
    When i try to configure Anywhere Access and setup VPN + RemoteDesktop , the wizard fails. VPN cannot be setup , retry.
    Two Issues:
    The VPN setup/configuration fails (Lets start with this one, could be related to second issue).
    Remote Desktop setup is completed. However the "Remote Desktop Gateway" service cannot be started because the dependant service RPC/HTTP Load Balancing  cannot start.
    Troubleshooting steps taken on the VPN setup Issue:
    Restarting the server (multiple times)
    Rerunning the wizard (multiple times)
    Checking if the correct roles has been installed by Server Essentials
    Checking log files dashboard.log (The error found)
    Run sfc /scannow (errors found and corrected)
    Run DISM (OK)
    Tried to setup VPN manually using the RRAS GUI (Error: Installation of the Routing and Remote Access service failed because Class not registered 80040154)
    Further I've concluded that the 1st (VPN) issue is probably casued by malfunctioning WMI
    In the dashboard.log , when running the VPN setup an error can be found on one of the setup steps:
    [6684] 140723.170909.2619: RemoteAccess: PS > RemoteAccess\Install-RemoteAccess -VpnType Vpn;

    of an object." ---> System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
    To troubleshoot this further, i've run the PS command "Install-RemoteAccess -VpnType Vpn" manually. This gives me the following error which Points to a WMI issue

    Hi,
    Here is a good blog to troubleshoot WMI issues.
    WMI: Rebuilding the WMI Repository
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/askperf/archive/2009/04/13/wmi-rebuilding-the-wmi-repository.aspx
    First, I want to confirm if the good system is at the same hotfix/SP.
    Re-register all of the dlls and recompile the .mofs in the wbem folder and re-registering WMI Service and Provider. Then verify the consistence of the repository.
    If the issue persists, we can choose to rebuild the repository.
    Hope this helps.

  • Windows Storage Server Essentials 2012 R2 + SBS 2008 Domain

    I recently purchased one of the new Thecus N2000 Windows Storage Server Essentials 2012 R2 boxes and I'd like to integrate it into my SBS 2008 domain.  I've successfully joined it to the domain, but whenever I try to run the "Configure Windows
    Server Essentials" wizard I get an error "Configuration encountered some issues" "Please Click Retry.  If the issue still exists please refer to the help link for more troubleshooting steps".  Unfortunately the troubleshooting
    link just takes me to these forums, and I have yet to find anything in here to get this to work.  
    I've tried removing the Essentials role, rebooting, re-adding the Essentials role, and re-running the "Configure Windows Server Essentials" wizard, but no good - I still continue to get the same failure.
    I've read that Windows Server Essentials requires that it holds the FSMO roles and it gets angry if it doesn't hold them.  SBS 2008 also requires that *it* holds the FSMO roles though, which is what prevented me from going to Windows Server Essentials.
     Windows _Storage_ Server Essentials however was billed as a different product, I'm getting conflicting information from some people saying I should be able to integrate it with my SBS 2008 domain no problem, but given the fact that I'm having so much
    trouble with this I'm beginning to question that.
    Has anyone out there been able to add a WSSe 2012 R2 box to an SBS domain and get the two to play together nicely?  What did it take?

    Hi Mesan,
    à
    I've tried removing the Essentials role, rebooting, re-adding the Essentials role
    Did you mean that Windows Server Essentials Experience role had been installed on that server? I only find that
    deploy Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard/Datacenter with Windows Server Essentials Experience role
    in an existing AD Environment. For more details, please refer to following article and check if can help you.

  • Best practices for upgrading Windows Server Essentials 2012 to R2?

    Hi,
    I need to upgrade my Windows Server Essentials 2012 on an HP microserver to Essentials R2 (specifically the R2 role on Standard rather than as a VM). After a reasonable amount of searching, I haven't found anything online that specifically addresses this in-place
    upgrade scenario. Since this is already an Essentials server, it's the PDC in its own domain, etc. Has anyone that's done this upgrade have any experiences or warnings to share?
    Thanks,
    Sean

    Hello there,
    There is no upgrade path from Server 2012 Essentials to R2.  R2 is not an upgrade, it is a new build.  Essentials does not upgrade easily, you will want to perform a migration of the server.  This will require additional hardware.  You
    can possibly backup the 2012 Essentials, build a temp server on workstation hardware just to do the migration from,  restore the backup to the new server and then perform the migration to R2.

  • Help needed with Report Design

    Hi All,
    Here is the requirement.
    Period Type(holds 2 values) : Payment and Vested.
    we have field 'Total Days' which is calculated based on "User Selected" Period Type.
    For example, When Period Type is Payment,
    If start date is less than or equal to grant date and end date is less than or equal to vest date, then calculation is (End Date - Grant Date)+1
    If start date is greater than grant date and end date is less than or equal to vest date, then calculation is (End Date - Mobility Start Date)+1 (similarly 2 more if conditions) ...we have similar calculation for Period Type - 'Vested'.
    This Period Type is a multiselect Prompt. How can this be achievable.
    Any thoughts will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Why do you come here asking this question anyway ? is it becouse you have a MSI gfx card ? and the adapter has nothing to do with this ?
    You think you can come in here yelling.. thinking we have to put up with it and accept your style of posting. This is not a MSI tech center.. it's a user to user center.. Your question has nothing to do with MSI relavant things anyway's.
    Google = your friend.

  • Help needed with Vista 64 Ultimate

    "Help needed with Vista 64 UltimateI I need some help in getting XFI Dolby digital to work
    Okay so i went out and I bought a yamaha 630BL reciever, a digital coaxial s/pdif, and a 3.5mm phono plug to fit perfectly to my XFI Extreme Music
    -The audio plays fine and reports as a PCM stream when I play it normally, but I can't get dolby digital or DTS to enable for some reason eventhough I bought the DDL & DTS Connect Pack for $4.72
    When I click dolby digital li've in DDL it jumps back up to off and has this [The operation was unsuccessful. Please try again or reinstall the application].
    Message Edited by Fuzion64 on 03-06-2009 05:33 AMS/PDIF I/O was enabled under speakers in control panel/sound, but S/PDIF Out function was totally disabled
    once I set this to enabled Dolby and DTS went acti've.
    I also have a question on 5. and Vista 64
    -When I game I normally use headphones in game mode or 2. with my headphones, the reason for this is if I set it on 5. I get sounds coming out of all of the wrong channels.
    Now when I watch movies or listen to music I switch to 5. sound in entertainment mode, but to make this work properly I have to open CMSS-3D. I then change it from xpand to stereo and put the slider at even center for 50%. If I use the default xpand mode the audio is way off coming out of all of the wrong channels.
    How do I make 5. render properly on vista

    We ended up getting iTunes cleanly uninstalled and were able to re-install without issue.  All is now mostly well.
    Peace...

  • Help needed with itunes

    help needed with itunes please tryed to move my itunes libary to my external hard drive itunes move ok and runs fin but i have none of my music or apps or anything all my stuff is in the itunes folder on my external hard drive but there is nothing on ituns how do i get it back help,please

    (Make sure the Music (top left) library is selected before beginning this.)
    If you have bad song links in your library, hilite them and hit the delete button. Then locate the folder(s) where your music is located and drag and drop into the large library window in iTunes ( where your tracks show up). This will force the tunes into iTunes. Before you start, check your preferences in iTunes specifically under the"Advanced" tab, general settings. I prefer that the 1st 2 boxes are unchecked. (Keep iTunes Music folder organized & Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library). They are designed to let iTunes manage your library. I prefer to manage it myself. Suit yourself. If there is a way for iTunes to restore broken links other than locating one song at a time I haven't found it yet. (I wish Apple would fix this, as I have used that feature in other apps.) This is the way I do it and I have approx. 25,000 songs and podcasts and videos at present. Hope this helps.

  • Urgent help needed with un-removable junk mail that froze Mail!!

    Urgent help needed with un-removable junk mail that froze Mail?
    I had 7 junk mails come in this morning, 5 went straight to junk and 2 more I junked.
    When I clicked on the Junk folder to empty it, it froze Mail and I can't click on anything, I had to force quit Mail and re-open it. When it re-opens the Junk folder is selected and it is froze, I can't do anything.
    I repaired permissions, it did nothing.
    I re-booted my computer, on opening Mail the In folder was selected, when I selected Junk, again, it locks up Mail and I can't select them to delete them?
    Anyone know how I can delete these Junk mails from my Junk folder without having to open Mail to do it as it would appear this will be the only solution to the problem.

    Hi Nigel
    If you hold the Shift key when opening the mail app, it will start up without any folders selected & no emails showing. Hopefully this will enable you to start Mail ok.
    Then from the Mail menus - choose Mailbox-Erase Junk Mail . The problem mail should now be in the trash. If there's nothing you want to retain from the Trash, you should now choose Mailbox- Erase Deleted Messages....
    If you need to double-check the Trash for anything you might want to retain, then view the Trash folder first, before using Erase Junk Mail & move anything you wish to keep to another folder.
    The shift key starts Mail in a sort of Safe mode.
