Restoring Exchange 2007 mailstore to 2013 server

We got hit with a nasty malware infection and want to rebuild our network from the ground up, moving to a VM environment in server 2012 and starting over from scratch. Scorched earth.
We currently have an exchange 2007 SP3 server. Is it possible to restore our 2007 mail store directly to the 2013 server? We want to avoid connecting our old network/domain to the new one at all costs.
If direct restore isn't possible, what steps would be needed to restore the mail store and retain all user mailboxes?
Thanks for any advise.

A direct restore is definitely not possible - it's not even possible from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2010. Your best option would be to restart your old systems and export your mailboxes to PSTs. It's not pretty, but it's going to be a lot easier
than any other solution I can think of. Especially since your old and new Exchange organizations are probably going to have the same organization name ...

Installing Exchange 2007 on a Windows Server 2008

Hello I am new to the Microsoft forum and I have a quick question and please let me know if im posting my question in the wrong place. Im doing a school project were you have two servers with Windows Server 2008 installed on them. The first server suppose
to have Active directory and domain services followed by dns which I did. The second server which I just found out suppose to have installed Netframework 3.0, Wpa and Desktop experience roles then install Microsoft Exchange 2007. Well my issue is when I try
to install exchange on my second server it keeps giving me a error message saying my Active directory cannot be contacted or may not exist and that my second server has the wrong security credentials. I've taken the steps that Microsoft has advise by checking
my domain. Which I used the command Dcdiag.exe on my first server and it saids the domain is able to be contacted. Also when I joined my second domain I made sure to put the domain name of the first server in all caps followed by /Administrator and my password
and it said welcome to the domain. So has anybody run into that type of error message when trying to install exchange 2007 on a separate server? Lastly forget to include I also have web server IIS installed on the second server as well. Exchange is then asking
for IIS 7.0 ? So any tips or troubleshooting would be helpful since my professor wasn't much a help and I gotta turn this lab stuff in by next week.
thanks gmoney38

Not sure I need to check that through the dns is working far as ive seen in the server manager . Because I remember before I did this one command for the dns and it said something was wrong with the host A record. So I went through the hierarchy of
windows to that file and opened it up through the notepad it showed my loopback ip address 127.0.0.1 and localhost and not my domain name which I choose contoso01.com so from a previous forum I read if you change the localhost name to that domain name
that it would help but im not sure if this would in my case. Thanks for answering my question Mr. Ed but I still need some more help through!
gmoney38 ps plus im using vmware for this project to have the two servers i wonder if this is why im having issues!

Exchange 2013 MB/CAS integration with legacy Exchange 2007 CAS/MB/Trans server

Hi All,
I have an existing running Exchange 2007 SP3 RU13 server acting as MB,CAS,Transport using a Barracuda SPAM for SMTP (MX Record is assigned to here), and a TMG2010 server performing all ActiveSync, Outlook Anywhere, and OWA connectivity.
I have built a new Exchange 2013 SP1 server that will (for the meantime) act as a MB & CAS server only.
I successfully migrated a testuser mailbox to the new EX2013 server from the EX2007 server. The problem is that once migrated, OWA and Outlook can't access the mailbox.
OWA form our URL gives the message: Outlook Web Access is currently unavailable. If the problem continues, contact technical support for your organization and tell them the following: No Client Access servers of the appropriate version can be accessed from
the Internet
If I run OWA from the EX2013 URL it works ok, but not for MBs on the EX2007 server.
I tested this configuration in a VM lab and it worked ok. All I had to do was move the mailbox, then run Outlook. Outlook automatically found the new server and opened the MB.
Basically what I need to do is move all our existing MBs from the old 2007 server to the new 2013 server. I want to continue to use the exisiting transport/CAS/EDGE services on 2007 without having to rebuild both the internal and external comunications
infrastructure at the present time.
How can I get the EX2013 server to act as the MB server for the EX2007 communications infrastructure?

Hi,
Please try to create a new user on Exchange 2013, and send/receive email via both Outlook and OWA to test whether the Exchange 2013 mail flow well.
If Exchange 2013 works well, please try to bypass the TMG on Exchange 2007 for a little while for testing.
Additionally, we can use CAS 2013 URL to proxy/redirect previous CAS, or publish both CAS 2007 and CAS 2013 to be internet facing server with separate URLs, as Ed suggested.
Thanks

Restore Exchange 2007 database backup on Exchange 2010 server

Hi,
We have a requirement to restore mailbox from 2 years old when backup taken from Exchange 2007 server. Now we are on Exchange 2010 server where backup happens. So out of 2 years 1 year backup happen from Exchange 2007 & later happen from Exchange 2010
server using Netbackup.
We have 2 Exchange 2010 mailbox server & 1 Exchange 2007 mailbox server. Mailbox to be restore currently exists on Exchange 2010 mailbox server & functional.
can someone guide me with exact steps or best practice for restoring mailbox. confused by reading over multiple posts.

Hi ,
You cannot export data to a .pst file from a mailbox that is in a recovery storage group (RSG).
Mailboxes that are in a database that has been mounted in an RSG cannot be connected to Active Directory directory service accounts. These mailboxes have to be merged into existing mailboxes, or copied to a folder in an existing mailbox.

Restore Exchange 2007 SP3 to Windows 2008 R2 from Windows 2003

Perhaps I'm being dense, but I had Exchange 2007 SP3 installed on a Windows 2003 Server, and I've used "setup /mode:recoverserver" to restore it to a Windows 2008 R2 server... how do I restore the databases which I backed up with the Windows backup tool
on 2003?
I installed KB974674, the restore tool onto the 2008 R2 server but when I try and restore the backup it comes up with "this feature is no longer supported". Something I'm missing here?

These things marked as answers are not answers.
I have now thoroughly tested using setup /mode:recoverserver and it works fine going from Windows 2003 to Windows 2008 R2 with Exchange 2007 SP3, done several installations now without a problem.
"Setup /m:RecoverServer cannot be used across operating systems. A server that was originally running Windows Server 2003 can be recovered only on Windows Server 2003, and a server that was originally running Windows Server 2008 can
be recovered only on Windows Server 2008."
This appears to be wrong, unless someone can tell me why it's right (I haven't tried moving Unified Messaging yet). I've done it to 2008 R2 several times now and also in the other direction, from 2008 R2 to 2003, I can't find anything that didn't work
afterward, although I haven't really thoroughly tested OWA yet, I admit (but it does appear to be working).
I think that documentation is out-of-date as it doesn't mention R2 plus I think it was written before SP3 came out and that paragraph is just wrong.
Basically how I do it is like this:
Dismount databases from the 2003 server and copy the storage group folders to a network location or removable media.
Install the Windows 2008 R2 server using the same machine account that was being used by the 2003 server. Install the prerequisites needed for Exchange 2007 SP3 installation on 2008 R2 (note in addition to the IIS components and RPC over HTTP this
also requires the AD tools in RSAT, which I haven't found mentioned in technical documentation). Install the relevant windows updates.
Install Exchange 2007 SP3 using setup /mode:recoverserver Install the update rollup.
Copy the storage groups into the relevant folders on the new server and mount them. Migrate any relevant certificates (e.g. for ActiveSync).
Obviously then check it all over with the diagnostic tools and check it with EXBPA. The backups are obviously totally different, but really I think you should be using DPM anyway.
To me that was pretty easy to do, to be honest. About 1.5 on a scale of one to ten. Basically install it, recover it, copy over some files and mount them.
Seriously on a halfway decent server I've done it in under an hour.

MS Edge services wont start on exchange 2007 installation on a server 2008 r2 in a 2003 domain

Hi
I had a previous installation of exchange 2007 vanilla that I had to delete because of some errors on the nic card in a 2003 exchange environnement migration preparation. I've build a brand new 2008 R2 and i'm trying to install a new exchange 2007 SP1. When
the service edge try to start it seems that it doenst want to get install. I've disable IPV6 from the nic and still the same problem. Is there something that need to be removed in the AD because of my previous 2007 installation ?
thanks

Hi,
I find this for your reference:
I would install Exch 2007 with SP3 slipstrreamed. The download for SP3 is the full installation of Exchange. The fact that Exch 2007 with SP1 is not R2 compatible, you will run into problems.
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=1687160b-634a-43cb-a65a-f355cff0afa6&displaylang=en
"Clean installations of Exchange 2007 SP3 on a new server are possible by using this download in the same manner as you would install Exchange 2007 RTM, Exchange 2007 SP1 or Exchange 2007 SP2.

OWA functionality in Exchange 2007 coexistance with 2013

I have conexistance environment with Exchange 2007 and Exchange 2013. Out of about 1200 users we have 25 test users in the 2013 environment. The problem we are seeing is when a 2013 mailbox has "Full Access" to a 2007 mailbox and tries to connect
to that mailbox through OWA 2013 the connection always fail. I can attach the mailbox in Outlook with no problems but cannot open that mailbox through OWA 2013. Any thought?

See if this helps. It's not an exact match for your versions, but I think it's what you need to look at.

Outlook 2010 Will Not Connect to Exchange 2007 on SBS 2008 Server

Good Morning,
I have a user who cannot connect to the exchange server on SBS 2008 with outlook 2010. When they start outlook, it shows disconnected and will not connect for a minimum of 20 minutes to an hour. Any suggestions on how to fix this would be appreciated.
I have rebuilt their profile, but that does not fix the issue.
Thank you,
Lee F.
Lee Feldman SMB Consultant

Hi,
Thanks for posting in the forum.
Regarding the current issue, since you have recreated the user profile without any issue, I suspect that it’s mainly caused by the network issue. At this time, please first check the TCP/IP
configurations as Larry mentioned. Then, please also refer to the article below for details about how to troubleshoot Outlook connectivity issue.

Outlook 2013 Constantly Prompting For Credentials - Exchange 2007 - Small Business Server 2008

Hello, I am having a problem using Windows Small Business Server 2008 and Exchange 2007 with Outlook 2013. The issue is that a credentials box appears in Outlook 2013 when using there exchange account whilst connected to the domain. The box will randomly
prompt for user credentials, once the user credentials are entered it will either pop back up again and if you enter the details in again it will continue to pop up for around 4 or 5 times before accepting the credentials. It will then pop back up within 15
minutes and do the same thing, if you click "Cancel" on the box it will also go away and remain connected to exchange however a popup in the bottom right will appear asking for a password even though you can send / receive from the mailbox.
I have looked into this issue for hours and hours and still can not find a resolution, I have tried re-installing Office 2013 and re-creating the Outlook Profile as-well as as the Windows 7 Profile. I have checked through all the SSL certificates in IIS
and everything appear to be correct.
Is this a common issue? Is there anything I can do to further diagnose or fix this issue without having to try to re-install both the server and machine?

Hi James_wilson,
Any update?
Just additional, would you please let me know whether have installed all updates for Outlook 2013? If hasn’t, please install and then monitor the result.
Please also check if you enable
Always prompt for logon credentials setting in Outlook 2013.
If you enable this setting, please uncheck and check if this issue still persists. Meanwhile, please remove the old credential in
Credential Manager, then add again. Then monitor the result
By the way, please run the Exchange BPA on the SBS 2008 server and check if can find some issue.
Hope this helps.
Best regards,
Justin Gu

Uppgrading Exchange 2007 from sp1 to sp3 on small business server 2008 sp1

Hello everyone
I know this topic has been discused many time in this froum. but i have to ask it again in my exact situation.
I have a realy unstable and unsafe server which i am planing to migrate all the apps and services to some virtual servers soon.
first migrating is Exchange. i have Exchange 2007 sp1 on my server sbs 2008. i have my DC,AD, dns, DHCP, File, etc on the same server as well . So that is way it is scary for me (as i am not really experienced) to even upgrade one service pack.
Now, i want to know if anyone did it before. What should i expect during upgrading or after that? so i can be ready for that?
which kind of backup can save me if somethings happens to my Exchange? is there any way to install the new Exchange 2007 and sp3 rollup 10 and then migrate all databases and mailboxes to that new server? if yes, how to do that?
Thanks
Nima

Hi Nima,
Ok, I know your concern. Please make sure you have read the above KB I provided before installing SP3 for Exchange 2007. What's more, you need to make sure you right mouse click and run as admin to install it.
Moreover, here is a thread about migrating Exchange 2007 SP3 to Exchange 2013 for your reference.

Outlook can't connect with Exchange 2013 after migration from Exchange 2007

<style type="text/css">P { margin-bottom: 0.21cm; }</style>
Hello,
recently we've done a Exchange 2007 sp3 to 2013 sp1. Users can conect perfectly with OWA and with his iphone clients.
But the problem is they can't connect from his Outlook clients (2010, 2013), both internaly and externaly. Always fails with the message: The Connection to Exchange it is not avaliable.... Can't resolve the name of Exchange server.
To try to resolve it we've done:
- Check Outlook anywhere configuration en EAC: it is configure with and external url mail.company.com and internal server.domain.local. The security is the default Negociation, but we've tried all.
- Check the internal dns, there are records for mail.company.com and exchangeserverdomain.local pointing to the exchange local ip. Also there is a public zone company.com with the record mail.caompany.com pointing to the exchange local ip. Also we've made
records autodiscover.company.com and autodiscover.domain.local pointing to the exchange local ip.
- In the public dns from our domain there is the record A and MX pointing our public ip. There aren't any record Autodiscover but we think that the manial conection should work.
Check certificates: we've made a new self-signed certificate including all this internal and external domains and for all services.
- Check Outlook Anywhere block: we've cheked.
Currently server state:
- Old Exchange 07 server can't start, it was in very bad state and we achieved migrate the mailbox to the new server, after that we tried to uninstall, but it crashes with a public folder replication error. We got uninstall all the roles
unless the mailbox. After a restart it can't start.
-The new Exchange 2013 looks great, there isn't any trail of the old server, or we haven't seen anything in the EAC or shell.
I paste below the result of Microsoft Remote conectivity analaizer, with Outlook anywhere test. It is clear that there is a problem with that.
Sorry because the test is in spanish and I translated it with google, from here I only can access the tool in spanish.
We continue to try to resolve the problem.
Thanks to all in advance!

Hello,

Migrate exchange 2007 mailboxes to exchange 2013

Hi Guys,
im trying to move exchange 2007 mailboxes to 2013. to cut to the chase, is this possible because im getting different kinds of errors?
Please advise if this is possible and how to do it.
Thanks!

Hi,
Below link also will help you

Before migrating exchange server, Make a plan
try to practcice on lab. " Production environment and practice lab is entire different"
I dont know your environment. Hope your Domain controller and Exchange environment is residing in same place. If it is different site, move FSMO roles to that site for installing purpose.
IT is really challenge and excitement .
Try to find the solution of client outlook connectivity,
I had this problem, after I install Cumulative update, this problem gone.
Login ECP console after install exchange server,
Certificate installation,
DNS pointing, port forward,
Apply auto discover.
I faced another issue as well during the installation. My ex admin upgraded exchange server 2003 to 2007. He may not uninstall exchange server 2003 properly. Exchange server
2003 record was in active directory. Exchange 2013 doesnt suport mixed version of exchange 2003 and 2013. I have to delete the Exchange server 2003 record under DNS and Adsiedit. After that only exchange server 2013 allow to continue to install.
Best of Luck " Nothing is impossible"

Remove Exchange 2007 from an Exchange 2013 coexistence.

Hey everyone,
I've just installed Exchange 2013 on a new server and all is working great. It is currently in coexistence with our old Exchange 2007 server. I've since shut the server down and Exchange 2013 has been working without issue. However, I haven't
been able to find any articles on this matter so I figured I would ask the question here.
How do you remove Exchange 2007 from the coexistence. Do I just uninstall Exchange 2007 from the old server and it will remove itself from the server and the domain? Any help/link on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Chris

Hi Simon,
I am about to do the same exercise as Chris, I just would like some clarity.
1) When you say mailbox Database, do you mean make sure there are no more mailboxes that you want to move over, or are you actually meaning delete the physical DB on the exchange 2007 server.
2) If there is no use of public folders does anything need to happen?
Thanks,
Terry
