Can you help me please

Have you check your Sql database? Maybe a problem with correct accessing the SQL Database.
How looks you Lync pool? Enterprise, Standard, how much FE server?

Front End Services won't start with new cert, SChannel error about hostname

We have an existing Lync 2013 Enterprise system set up, and many of the servers are using certs issues by our local CA. I want to move several of the certs to third-party certificates so that non-domain machines can connect. The first change I'm making is
on our Edge pool. However, I'm having an issue. Here are the details:
Our internal domain space is int.domain.com. Our external domain space is domain.com. Our Lync FE server is LS01.int.pool.com and our FE pool is pool01.int.domain.com. I have generated a CSR and requested a certificate from Globalsign with the following
characteristics:
SN: pool01.int.domain.com
SAN: pool01.int.domain.com
SAN: domain.com (wildcard)
SAN: int.domain.com (wildcard)
After applying the new cert using the topology builder, I've rebooted and the Lync Front-End Server service will no longer start. The following SChannel error is in the event logs:
The certificate received from the remote server does not contain the expected name. It is therefore not possible to determine whether we are connecting to the correct server. The server name we were expecting is ls01.int.domain.com. The SSL connection request
has failed. The attached data contains the server certificate.
After reverting back to the original local CA cert, the services start. The local cert has a ton of individual SANs set up but I was under the impression that the wildcard SANs were supported and would be ok for the hostnames.
Why is it looking for my FE server name and not the pool? Is this an issue with my deployment, or is it with the cert? I'm not sure where to go from here.

Hey Matt,
As mentioned above wildcards are only supported for Lync web services such as lyncdiscover, dialin and meeting URL's. It is OK to have wildcards in the certificates SAN, but you must also specifically include the following:
SN: pool01.int.domain.com (SN must be pool)
SAN: pool01.int.domain.com (pool must also be included in SAN)
SAN: lync-fe-001.int.domain.com (the machine name of your front end server)
This should solve the issue for you.

Front End Service is not starting

Hi ,
Any one can help me to resolve this issue.
I have one enterprise edition front end server .if i try to start the front end service it give the following error
Server startup is being delayed because fabric pool manager is initializing.
Cause: This is normal when Pool is bootstrapped and indicates that the Front-End is waiting for a quorum of other Front-Ends to be started.
Resolution:
If this event recurs persistently, ensure that 85% of the Front-Ends configured for this Pool are up and running. For 2 or 3 machine Pools, initial cold-start of the Pool requires all machines to be started. If multiple Front-Ends have been recently decommissioned,
run Reset-CsPoolRegistrarState -ResetType QuorumLossRecovery to enable the Pool to recover from Quorum Loss and make progress.

If understand the problem Correctly You one Lync enterprise edition installed is that right?
If yes Please note For a recommended Lync Server 2013 EE pool deployment, there should be at least three Lync Server 2013 front-end servers in the EE pool.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg412996.aspx
We recommend that all your Enterprise Edition Front End pools include at least three Front End Servers
Also refer Why 3 server pool?
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/lync/en-US/1e277415-01b0-4123-a5bc-260909368d5b/why-3-server-pool?forum=lyncdeploy
If you just want one Lync server please install Lync Standard Edition
Front End Pools with Two Front End Servers
We do not recommend deploying a Front End pool that contains only two Front End Servers. If you do ever need to deploy such a pool, follow these guidelines:
If one of the two Front End Servers goes down, you should try to bring the failed server back up as soon as you can. Similarly, if you need to upgrade one of the two servers, bring it back online as soon as the upgrade is finished.
If for some reason you need to bring both servers down at the same time, do the following when the downtime for the pool is finished:
The best practice is to restart both Front End Servers at the same time.
If the two servers cannot be restarted at the same time, you should bring them back up in the reverse order of the order they went down.
If you cannot bring them back up in that order, then use the following cmdlet before bringing the pool back up:.
Reset-CsPoolRegistrarState -ResetType QuorumLossRecovery -PoolFQDN <FQDN>

Hello, everyone
I've installed Lync Server 2010. There was no error during installation. But when i start Lync Server Front End Server, i'm getting following error:
The Lync Server Front-End service terminated with service-specific error %%-1008124893.
In event viewer:

I've upgraded Lync Server according to http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg521005.aspx?ppud=4
Also I've installed all Lync Server updates.
But I still could not start Lync Front End Sever. How can I solve this problem?

Design Question: Can I use Rest-CsPoolRegisterState command in order start Front End Service when Quorum is lost and less than 85% of FES are available?

Hi,
Assuming below setup for Enterprise edition Lync 2013
Single Pool Stretched architecture with 4 FES servers
Site A Data Center
Site B Data Center
FES
2
2
SQL
1 Primary
1 Mirror
Fact: In a situation when we lose network connectivity to Site A DC, and due to less than 50% FES servers, Quorum will be lost and as a result Front End Service will stop after 5 minutes.
The question is, would I be able to do a manual intervention by using this command
Reset-CsPoolRegistrarState –PoolFqdn <pool name fqdn> –ResetType QuorumLossRecovery , and start FES with just 2 FES servers in Site B DC and 1 SQL
Server?
The reason I am asking this question is because it is mentioned in one of the Lync manuals that at least 85% of the servers must be available to recover once the Quorum has lost. The same manual also mentions to use above
mentioned command in order to recover from Quorum Loss despite the fact that the lost FES servers are still not available.
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
In Lync server 2013 Stretched pools are not supported for the Front End, Edge, Mediation, and Director server roles. It need two Lync pools.
If one pool fail to connect, An administrator can declare an emergency and fail over the pool to the backup pool. That is done by using the:
Invoke-CsPoolFailover –PoolFQDN <Pool fqdn> –DisasterMode –Verbose

Error when updating Client Access Front End Service to Exchange 2013 Update 6

When updating to Exchange 2013 Update 6 we received the following error at the Step 11 of 13: Client Access role: Client Access Front End service step:
Error:
The following error was generated when "$error.Clear();

Problem was that if you have more than one ActiveSyncVirtualDirectory, the installer for Update 6 fails because it's not expecting an array of virtual directories to be returned. Solution is to remove the "extra" virtual directory, perform the
installation, and then re-add the virtual directory.
None of the other types of virtual directories are susceptible to this, only ActiveSync.

I have removed the ecp site from default site and attempting to rerun SP1 now. I do not have high hopes. :(

Hi,
Thanks for your response.
From the error description, you need to manually remove the ECP with IIS manager in both the Default Web Site and the Exchange Back End firstly. And then continue the upgrade to check the result.
Hope this can be helpful to you.

Password service won't start

Following an unplanned hard restart of our server (Mac OS X 10.9.5, Server 3.2.2), the password service won't start, so our staff can't log into mail, calendars or file sharing.
When I launch Open Directory, the main window has the message "Unable to load replica list", then it switches itself off after a minute or so.
I've looked at the certificates in Server and they have the green tick so presumably are OK.
DNS is working OK and running the command "sudo changeip -checkhostname" reports success.
Here's the section of log that repeats every few seconds as PasswordService repeatedly starts up and exits:

I have backups (both Time Machine and clones of the hard drive) that I could use to restore the corrupted bit of the configuration, if necessary, but I don't know what to restore.

Many Open Directory problems can be resolved by taking the following steps. Test after each one, and back up all data before making any changes.
1. The OD master must have a static IP address on the local network, not a dynamic address. It must not be connected to the same network with more than one interface; e.g., Ethernet and Wi-Fi.
2. You must have a working DNS service, and the server's hostname must match its fully-qualified domain name. To confirm, select the server by name in the sidebar of the Server application window, then select the Overview tab. Click the Edit button on the Host Name line. On the Accessing your Server sheet, Domain Name should be selected. Change the Host Name, if necessary. The server must have at least a three-level name (e.g. "server.yourdomain.com"), and the name must not be in the ".local" top-level domain, which is reserved for Bonjour.
3. The primary DNS server used by the server must be itself, unless you're using another server for internal DNS. The only DNS server set on the clients should be the internal one, which they should get from DHCP if applicable.
4. If you have accounts with network home directories, make sure the URL's are correct in the user settings. A return status of 45 from the authorizationhost daemon in the log may mean that the URL for mounting the home directory was not updated after a change in the hostname.
5. Only if you're still running Mavericks server, follow these instructions to rebuild the Kerberos configuration on the server.
6. If you use authenticated binding, check the validity of the master's certificate. The common name must match the hostname and domain name. Deselecting and then reselecting the certificate in Server.app has been reported to have an effect in some cases. Otherwise delete all certificates and create new ones.
7. Unbind and then rebind the clients in the Users & Groups preference pane. Use the fully-qualified domain name of the master.
8. Reboot the master and the clients.
9. Don't log in to the server with a network user's account.
10. Disable any internal firewalls in use, including third-party "security" software.
11. If you've created any replica servers, delete them.
12. If OD has only recently stopped working when it was working before, you may be able to restore it from the automatic backup in /var/db/backups, or from a Time Machine snapshot of that backup.
13. As a last resort, export all OD users. In the Open Directory pane of Server, delete the OD server. Then recreate it and import the users. Ensure that the UID's are in the 1001+ range.
If you get this far without solving the problem, then you'll need to examine the logs in the Open Directory section of the log list in the Server app, and also the system log on the clients.

Web services won't start - error 100002

Hi there
I have done a freash install of Leopard Server 10.5.4 and updated to 10.5.8 on an Xserve G5. Added a 2nd web site (in addition to default) and now web services won't start returning the error:
A service has encounted an error.
Try to refresh the view (mysever.com/Web)
(Could not start web service - details in error log.)
100002
Below is in the error log for both web sites:
Syntax error on line 1310 of /private/etc/httpd/httpd.conf:
Invalid command '<Proxy', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
The following is a Console Message:
10/4/09 10:50:18 PM com.apple.launchd[1] (org.apache.httpd-1.3[4682]) Exited with exit code: 1
10/4/09 10:50:18 PM com.apple.launchd[1] (org.apache.httpd-1.3) Throttling respawn: Will start in 10 seconds
Any pointer of how to solve this would be appreciated.
Cheers, Paul

11g DB Control service won't start on Win XP Pro

Hi all,
In installing my 11g database, the DB Control service won't start so the database config fails prior to doing the EM stuff. The system event viewer says:
The OracleDBConsoleorcl11p1 service terminated with service-specific error 2 (0x2).
Querying further, I find the following:
SERVICE_NAME: OracleDBConsoleorcl11p1
TYPE : 10 WIN32_OWN_PROCESS
STATE : 1 STOPPED
(NOT_STOPPABLE,NOT_PAUSABLE,IGNORES_SHUTDOWN)
WIN32_EXIT_CODE : 1066 (0x42a)
SERVICE_EXIT_CODE : 2 (0x2)
CHECKPOINT : 0x0
WAIT_HINT : 0x0
Researching the error code 1066 simply says it is a vendor-specific error code. Anyone out there ever come across such a thing?
Cheers,
Jim Greetham

Jim,
Were you able to figure out the problem why you were getting 'service specific error occurred:2'?
I have the same issue.
DB version: 11.1.0.6.0
OS: Win XP (latest patches and updates applied)
The database and other pieces are working just fine.
Thank you,
Taj

Can't Update to 10.0.1, Bonjour Service Won't Start--PLEASE help!

All I want to do is update my iTunes but I cannot. It won't work from within iTunes, and when I try to do it manually it said "The Service Bonjour Service" won't start." In Services, I could not start it either, though I am admin.
So I deleted Bonjour (from within the Control Panel), thinking that'd take care of it, but it did not. I still get ALL the same messages. I even tried re-installing Bonjour (bonjour64.msi), and I get the same "won't start" message. It's not my firewall--I set that to always allow.
What is going on here? I've searched and searched, but to no avail (though they are plenty of Bonjour problems out there), and I really don't want to uninstall/reinstall iTunes, if that would even do it. I'm new to Apple, and this just makes no sense to me.
Please, help?? THANKS in advance~

There are remants of Bonjour in the program files, and I guess I could delete these to clean it up, but I doubt that would make the difference.
Actually, that could make a difference. If there is leftover componentry from the previous version still on the PC when the new version tries to install, the version mismatch could cause trouble with the new service starting. That could then roll back the attempted install.
There's a bunch of different stuff on 64-bit systems for BonJour (there's both 64-bit and 32-bit componentry stashed on a 64-bit system. We'll also try a cleaner version of an uninstall than the Apple instructions provide.
In Computer, open your C drive (or whichever drive your program files are installed on).
Open the "Program Files" folder.
Right-click on the "BonJour" folder (if it still exists) and select "Delete".
Go back into your C drive (or whichever drive your program files are installed on).
Open the "Program Files (x86)" folder.
Right-click on the "BonJour" folder (if it still exists) and select "Delete".
Go back into your C drive (or whichever drive your operating system is installed on).
Open the "Windows" folder.
Open the "System32" folder.
Right-click on the dnssd.dll and dns-sd.exe files (if they still exist), and select "Delete".
Go back into the "Windows" folder.
Open the "SysWOW64" folder.
Right-click on the dnssd.dll and dns-sd.exe files (if they still exist), and select "Delete".
Empty your recycle bin.
Restart the PC and try another BonJour install. Any better luck restarting the service this time?
