Re-install Exchange 2013

I started a basic install of Exchange 2013 on Windows 2012 on a network with an existing Exchange 2007 (SBS 2008) org.
Things went well with prerequisites and AD Prep but the actual install ended up freezing up. I ran it on a VM with 2GB RAM and all I can guess is that services couldn't start etc with only that much RAM. I did the install through a remote desktop session
and when I returned after kicking off the install process that session was completely frozen up with a black screen. All I could do was reboot the server. I noticed messages that implied the completely new/blank Exchange install was unhappy with 2GB so I raised
it to 10GB, but still things just didn't work. Most significantly I couldn't even load the Management Console replacement web site. I just would get 404 not found.
Thinking the original install never completed properly I simply deleted the VM, re-created a new one with the same config (and 10GB RAM) with the same name, joined the domain, installed pre-requisites and re-started the install, but now I'm getting
"Exchange Server in an inconsistent state. Only disaster recovery mode is available. Please use Setup /m:RecoverServer"...
Of course now I get other errors because "Disaster Recovery setup needs access to the mailbox database drive (prior install location)" etc. and of course I have no backups or anything because there was nothing but deployed install media on the
prior server.
How do I re-install? Do I need to clean up AD references to the prior install?
Regards,
Steve Ware

Hello,
Yes. You should check if the uncompleted exchange server is in AD. If it is in AD, please remove it and then reinstall it.
And you can remove the VM, and create a new VM, and then install new exchange server whose name is different from the uncompleted exchange server.

  • Installing Exchange 2013 on Windows Server 2012 R2

    Now that SP1 has been released, it is supported to run Exchange 2013 on Windows Server 2012 R2
    But since it is not yet possible to download Exchange 2013 with integrated SP1 (slipstreamed), is the following installation procedure supported:
    - Install Exchange 2013 (without SP1) on Windows Server 2012 R2
    - Install SP1 on top of Exchange 2013
    If this is not supported, can someone tell me when the Exchange 2013 with integrated SP1 (slipstreamed) download will be released?

    yes the SP1 is the full product. if you need step by step instruction to migrate to this new version you can get info here : http://buenoflex.com/install-exchange-2013-sp1/

    I was installing Exchange 2013 on Server 2012.  The server is not a DC, but is a member of a domain with a 2008 R2 functional level, and I was logged in as a domain admin.  There has never been an Exchange instance on this domain.  I got past
    the prerequisite checks, and the installer showed 15 steps, so I walked away.  When I came back, I saw this:

    Hi Deepak,
    From the error description, I would like to clarify the following things:
    1. Please ensure that IPv6 on the network adaptor is turned on.
    2. Please check if the account that you used to install Exchange has necessary permissions to perform the installation.
    3. Make sure that DNS is configured correctly.
    Hope my clarification is helpful.
    If there are any problems, please feel free to let me know.
    Best regards,

  • Reading Exchange Online tenant version failed due to an exception when trying to install Exchange 2013 in a hybrid environment.

    We currently have an Exchange 2010 hybrid install and we have migrated all of our email accounts to Office 365.  Now, I want to do an on-premise install of Exchange 2013 to better manage the hybrid setup.  When I try to install Exchange 2013 it
    asks for my O365 credentials to do a hybrid check but always fails with the above message.  I've done quite a bit of searching but haven't come up with anything useful.
    Here is what appears in the exchange setup log:

    Hi,
    I recommend you post this in
    office 365 forum also, as they should have more professional knowledge on hybrid deployments
    and you may get effective solution timely.
    In addition, I found a similar thread for you reference:
    http://community.office365.com/en-us/f/156/t/255739.aspx
    According to the reply of this thread, if you run the HCW (Hybrid Configuration Wizard) to deploy the Exchange Hybrid environment, there will generate an HCW log
    file for this deployment.
    Additional troubleshooting information is available in the Update-HybridConfiguration log file located at C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V1*\Logging\Update-HybridConfiguration\HybridConfiguration****.log

  • Is it ok to install Exchange 2013 on Windows Server 2012 Standard?

    Hello everyone,
    I'd like to know if it is ok/safe to install Exchange Server 2013 on Windows Server 2012 Standard?
    As I started doing some research and noticed a page where Microsoft states they don't recommend running Exchange on Server 2012 Standard, and recommend making 2 different servers one for Active Directory and another for Exchange.
    On that page they also listed some features that wouldn't work in case of Exchange is running on Server 2012. And that it may put a larger data load if setup this way.
    I am hoping someone knowledgeable can explain and tell me if it is safe to use such setup or if it is better to use something like SBS 2011 Standard instead, which has Exchange included?
    Has anyone installed Exchange 2013 on Server 2012 Standard successfully and used it for more then several months without problems?
    Also just to give an idea on my background, I've been in IT field fairly long but haven't really updated to newer versions much and mainly used SBS 2003 and 2008 only with a few clients so haven't used 2008 too much.
    Thanks in advance.

    Few things to note.
    There is
    NO SBS in 2012
    All you need is a Std edition of Windows for Exchange 2013, as there is no difference in features between Std and Datacenter as far as Exchange is concerned.
    For 10 users, you can have one box with both AD and Exchange. It is not MS recommeded, but it IS supported.

    Any advice please !!

    I can't answer your question but I had a similar issue when I was trying to move our mailbox database off the C: drive.  Our environment still has an Exchange 2007 server in it and when I was trying to move the database on the 2013 server, I would get
    error messages saying the database does not exist.  It seemed like it was trying to move the database on the 2007 server from the similar error messages that I was getting.  To get around it, I deleted the database and created a new one on the drive
    where we wanted it.
    I discovered this when I was configuring the Antispam settings.  I deleted our 2007 settings, added them to the 2013 shell, the settings appeared on our 2007 server.  The shell on 2013 was making changes to 2007.
    I'm not sure if there is a "Get|Set or New" command that I/we should be using when this happens.  Or maybe my issues will be fixed if I just remove the Exchange 2007 server?  I'm not ready to do that yet because I can't configure the spam filtering
    on 2013 yet with its shell not being able to make the changes that we need.
    I don't know if your environment is in coexistence mode like mine.
    Hopefully someone else out there has an answer or can tell us when/how the shell can make the appropriate changes to the 2013 server.  Does this happen after the 2007 server is removed?

  • Problem with Exchange 2010 Public Folders after installing Exchange 2013 in my environment.

    I currently have an Exchange 2010 server with all the roles installed.  Before installing Exchange 2013, I was able to launch the Public Folder Management Console but now I get an error.  When I installed Exchange 2013, I got an error saying I
    had a instance of Exchange 2000 or Exchange 2003, but I didn't have any of these servers left.  There was still something in AD referencing my old server. I went into ADSIedit and deleted an old administrative group.  This deletion caused my access
    to my public folders to get messed up.  I followed this article, http://blog.bruteforcetech.com/archives/766, and I was able to gain access back in my outlook client but I still can't see the public folders in OWA.  I also get this error when
    trying to access either Default or System Public Folders.  "Cannot complete the operation because there isn't an available public folder database on server 'ExchangeServer'. It was running the command 'get-publicfolder - getchildren -identity '\'
    -server 'ExchangeServer' "
    My Public Folder Database exists and is mounted.  Any help is appreciated.

    Hi Belinda,
    Thank you for responding.  Yes you do understand my problem correctly.  One correction is that after deleting this entry in ADSIEdit, we couldn't access public folders at all either in Outlook or OWA.  I followed these steps in the below article:
     http://blog.bruteforcetech.com/archives/766
    After following these steps and recreating the entry on FolderHieachies in ADSI edit, I was able to gain access to the public folders again through Outlook, but still can't see them in OWA and can't access them in Public Folder Management Console.
    Here are the results to your requests:
    et-PublicFolder -Recurse | Format-List Name
    Name : IPM_SUBTREE

  • Can't install Exchange 2013 after previous uninstall (insufficient user privileges with the same user)

    I have installed Exchange 2013 on Windows Server 2012, which ist a member of a Windows Server 2012 R2 Domain. All prerequisites and AD modifications were successfully  completed and I could install Exchange 2013. Unfortunately I made a mistake with
    the target directory and had to uninstal Exchange 2013. If I start the Setup again, it fails in prerequisite check - the current user should not be a member of Enterprise and Schema admin Group, but it's the same user, which comleted the previous Installation
    of Exchange 2013! Do you have any idea how to solve this Problem - I'm running out of ideas.

    Inhave tried to run setup /PrepareSchema again and get the following error in exchange setup log:
    [03.07.2014 19:25:53.0305] [0] Setup encountered a problem while validating the state of Active Directory: Couldn't find the Enterprise Organization container.

    After removing all Exchange Parts by ADUC (advanced View) and ADSI Edit (Services) I'm able to install Exchnge 2013 again - the uninstall procedure seems not to work in a clean manner.

    Hi
    Remove thinking of SBS server because this part might scare you . It is just the same process of migrating it from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013 . You just need both the server operating smoothly until this migration is complete.
    First Make sure you're running Rollup 10 of SP3 for Exchange 2007 and that you have atleast Exchange 2013 CU1  else the installation won't proceed further.
    You need to have a seperate box for installing Exchange 2013.
    I would recommend you to follow this artilcle which has clear cut information

    Please let us know if you have already tried the above things. You can paste any errors generated in the app and sys logs in the installation server.

  • How to to make Cluster between two server 2012 Datacenter with share storage and Hyper-V role then install Exchange 2013 on each server datacenter then make DAG between Exchange servers

    Dears,
    I have IBM Flex server with built in storage,  
    HOW to to make Cluster between two  server 2012 Datacenter with share storage and Hyper-V role then install Exchange 2013 on each server datacenter then make DAG between Exchange servers?
    If there any prerequisites of the Share storage types ?and any configuration guide to deploy Cluster between two Server 2012 datacenter ?

    Microsoft Failover Clusters require shared storage.  If you wish to create a failover cluster with local storage, you need to use third party software to mirror the disks and present it to the hosts (siog.com, datacore.com, starwind.com).  If you
    use third party software, you will need to follow their instructions for configuring the environment.
    Questions on how to configure Exchange environments are better asked in an Exchange forum.

  • Cannot install Exchange 2010 after installing Exchange 2013

    Hi,
    I have the current setup as explained below.
    Exchange 2010 SP3 Version 14.3 (Build 123.4)
    I installed Exchange 2013 as well to the setup. After installation everything was fine, but my backup solution was not as good enough to support Ex2013. So, I had to roll back. I uninstalled Ex 2013.
    On the new server (on which I actually installed EX 2013) I tried installing Ex 2010 but it failed. But, when I execute Get-ExchangeVersion I get these two.
      AdminDisplayVersion                     ExchangeVersion
      Version 14.3 (Build 123.4)              0.1 (8.0.535.0)
      Version 14.0 (Build 639.21)             0.1 (8.0.535.0)
    The first one is the live Exchange 2010 ( The first one which we had). When I try to run the setup, I am getting the following Error.
    Error:
    The following error was generated when "$error.Clear(); get-OfflineAddressBook -DomainController $RoleDomainController | where { $_.IsDefault } | Enable-OabWebDistribution" was run: "Object is read only because it was created by a future version
    of Microsoft Exchange: 0.20 (15.0.0.0). Current supported version is 0.10 (14.0.100.0).".
    What can I do now? My intention is just to create another Exchange Server for redundancy. I only have one EXchange server now. I tried installing EX 2013, and it seems not suit me because of backup issue. What I have in my mind is to get 2 Ex 2010 Servers.
    Should I try uninstalling EX 2010 and installing it from the beginning on the new EX Server?
    Thanks

    Hi Steve,
    I have the same situation, On a new server (on which I actually installed EX 2013) I tried installing Ex 2010.
    In the Client Access Role install setup, I getting:
    Error:
    the following error was generated when "$error.Clear(); get-OfflineAddressBook -DomainController $RoleDomainController | where {$_.IsDefault} | Enable-OabWebDistribution" was run: "Object is read only because it was created by a future version of Microsoft
    Exchange: 0.20 (15.0.0.0). Current supported version is 0.10 (14.0.100.0)
    Admin Display Version
    server 1 version 14.3
    server 2 version 14.0 (Client Access Role Error)
    how can I resolve this error?
    Thanks.
    Regards.
