My environment is 99% of the way there, but my ARR reverse proxy doesnt seem to be forwarding lyncdiscover properly. Can someone help?

I recently cut over from lync 2010 with an apache reverse proxy to a lync2013 deployment using microsoft ARR as the reverse proxy.
Last night i cut over to the new ARR reverse proxy but our lync 2013 mobility tests didnt go well. I also cant get the DIALIN.CONTOSO.COM page to show up externally. Only the https://MEET.CONTOSTO.COM site shows up properly from an external browser. I have
a feeling that the lync ARR server is only handling meet.contoso.com for some reason, although i followed the LYNC setup guides exactly. Please see the screenshots of my setup. Does anyone have an idea of why everything might be taken over by the MEET.CONTOSO.COM
Server Farm in ARR?
As you can see, the lyncdiscover.contoso.com server farm has no hits.
When I fire up the lync mobility app, the MEET.CONTOSO.COM server farm in ARR receives the hits. (and failures)
I followed the configuration exactly, here are my rewrite rules:
Any Ideas?

Hello All,
I had a professional service with Microsoft to fix the many issues with my Lync environment. It turns out that there were 2 major causes of the problem i was having. For one, I DID have the wrong cert set on the lync2013 FE server's external web interface.
I didn't realize this because there seems to be some sort of bug in the LYNC SERVER 2013 DEPLOYMENT WIZARD. 
First, it is badly designed. There is actually a drop down that i didnt realize was a dropdown when deploying my environment that expands and shows the external web services certificate.
After I found that, i tried updating it to my godaddy cert but it left a BLANK in the deployment wizard. So i had to go into the IIS management console to update the bindings.
Once the FE server's external website certificate was installed properly, we moved on the the reverse proxy. We scrapped ALL of the ARR servers and rewrite rules and started from scratch. Instead of creating 4 server farms and using lync.contoso.com, meet.contoso.com
etc... we created one server farm that points at the IP ADDRESS of the lync front end server. We changed the PATTERN to (.*) using regular expressions and the HTTP_HOST rule to (lync.contoso.com|lyncdiscover.contoso.com|meet.contoso.com|dialin.contoso.com)
After this, we still had a problem with lync mobility for android 2013.
Our public DNS has a record *.contoso.com to capture all traffic and route it to our website. This was capturing lyncdiscoverinternal.contoso.com and the android devices were getting a certificate error. We now have lyncdiscoverinternal.contoso.com pointed
to the reverse proxy's external IP address to resolve that issue. The android lync mobility client also checks for an exchange record which isn't documented http://contoso.com/ews because of an autodiscover record, so our android clients still get a certificate
error once during the initial setup of the application. Our IOS devices don't show this error so we called the issue resolved.
Good luck all!

  • While watching an iTunes movie from my Apple TV, why does my movie stop playing at the 1 hour mark?  I'm assuming I have a setting causing this to happen, but I have no idea what setting needs to be changed.  Can someone help me?

    While watching an iTunes movie from my Apple TV, why does my movie stop playing at the 1 hour mark?  I'm assuming I have a setting causing this to happen, but I have no idea what setting needs to be changed.  Can someone help me?

    It's right at an hour (consistently), but the computer goes to sleep prior to that. It's as if iTunes goes to sleep. Also, it wasn't always this way. Originally, the movies played through without interruption. At some point, I guess a setting was changed, and now I only get an hour. Also. My energy settings are set to go to sleep at 10 minutes.

    What version of Premiere Elements and on what computer operating system is it running?
    How did you save your Timeline content which included the narration clip produced with the project's Narration Tool?
    Publish+Share/Computer/ and then what? And, what preset? And, for that preset, did you use the default settings of the preset
    or did you customize the preset under its Advanced Button/Video Tab and Audio Tab?
    What other audio was in the project - any on Audio 1 or Soundtrack? Did you get involved with Smart Mix at all?
    Let us start here. We will be watching for your follow up.
    Thank you.

  • HT5655 I followed all the instructions to update Flash Player, but the installation fails at around 90%, it says that there is an Application running (Safari) bit I actually close all Apps. already. can someone help me with this issue ?? Thanks

    I have followed the instructions to update Flash Player, the Installation Fails at about 90%, it says that there is an Application running (Safari) and it says to close all the apps. and start again ... but I already close all the Applications ... none is running ... can someone help me with this issue ??? Thanks ...

    Dear Dominic
    Brilliant reply. Simple English. Simple to follow instructions. And it worked immediately, first time.
    Why couldn't the Apple and Adobe corporations get their programming right first time? We spend billions of UK pounds and US dollars with them. They reply with incompetent programming such as this, and arrogance to their customers in issuing faulty systems without doing the most rudimentary checks.
    Anyway, I certainly shan't be buying another Apple as this is the most unreliable, most incomprehensible, most illogical and downright thoughtless shoddy piece of computer kit which I have ever owned. And all of it is rubbish ~ emails disappear, photos can't be organised properly, spreadsheets don't work, Pages is laborious… the list goes on and on...
    But thanks to you Dominic, I have been able to load Adoble Flashj… maybe eyou should get  a job at Apple, and set them all on the right course to how to work simply and correctly with customers.
    Thanks again,
    David

    If after you charge it for about three hours and it only last about five minutes the battery is probably dead or there could be another hardware problem.  I would go back to the Apple store and ask them specifically how can it be OK if the fully charged battery only lasts five minutes.

    I tried loading itunes 10.5 onto my window wista 32-bit. It finishes the download and when i try to install it. I says that an error occured while trying to install.
    Can somebody help me plz?

    Hi all, I know this is a very old thread, but I was battling this issue for awhile and wanted to provide my solution in case future users encounter a similar issue.
    I am running Windows 8. I encountered this issue while trying to install iTunes 11.1 x64 version. After some troubleshooting, I discovered that the real issue was trying to install the Apple Mobile Device service.
    My resolution was installing the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package. It is available from Microsoft. A search on Google should reveal it. However, here is the latest link that I used: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=14431
    Note that redistributable packages for more recent versions of Visual C++ (eg 2008, 2010) will NOT work. Only 2005 version worked for me.
    Good luck!

  • My hard drive crashed and I want to reinstall my personal itunes on another computer but I need to deauthorize my the original computer and I don't know how to reinstall.  Can someone help me please?

    My hard drive crashed and I restored my computer with my daughter's hard drive (her battery was dead) and I want to install my personal itunes on the new hard drive.  I was unable to deauthorize the original computer and I do not know how to reinstall my personal itunes.  Can someone help me with this?
    Thank you.

    Without a backup of your "crashed" HD you will have to download your iTunes purchases again. Make sure your restored computer is running the latest version of iTunes.
    Here is the procedure for your reference.
    On your restored computer, launch iTunes. Click on iTunes Store on the left
    On the right you will see this
    "Sign in" using the Apple ID used to purchase your songs, then click on "Purchased" (with the orange blob)
    On the summary page that appears select the tab "Not on This Computer" on the right.
    On the list that appears, select what you want and then click the "Download" button.
    When you want to play your newly downloaded music, you will have to "authorize" it. Don't worry about the lost HD until enough of your computers crash that you reach the limit of 5. Then you can "deauthorize all" and re-authorize as necessary.

    Hi Rajvidya Das,
    Do the following, then try again:
    1.     Close all open apps: Double click on the Home key and then swipe up on each of the thumbnails that appear above the open app icons
    2.     Sign out of the iTunes store: Settings>iTunes & App Store, click on your Apple/iTunes ID, then sign out
    3.     Check Settings>Safari, and make sure that "Block Cookies" is not set to "Always". If it is, change it to either of the other two options
    4.     Make sure you do not have Restrictions turned on. If they are turned on, make sure that access is allowed for Safari, iTunes Store, Installing Apps, and Deleting Apps
    5.     Reset your device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Silver Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Home screen redisplays sign back into iTunes and try again
    Cheers,

  • Hello can someone help me I have an iphone 4 and my daughter has an ipod touch we are on the same email address but somehow with in the last 25hrs all of my contacts are gone and only hers on on my phone is there a way for me to get all my contacts back?

    Hello can someone help me I have an iphone 4 and my daughter has an ipod touch we are on the same email address but somehow with in the last 25hrs all of my contacts are gone and only hers on on my phone is there a way for me to get all my contacts back?

    If you need assistance with finding any of your restores or attempting to restore from any that happened prior to his incident follow this article
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
    IF you do find a backup that has your contacts; I'd /highly/ recommand turning off your wifi network after the restore is finished because if the issue is with your iCloud your contacts may merge back with her's.
    With iCloud you DO NOT want to share the account; bad things happen Evil evil thigns...
    But in all seriousness; if two devices have the same iCloud; iCloud is told to merge and sync infomation between hte two and can't tell that it doesn't belong to the same person
