Windows Server 2012 R2 with Exchange Server 2013 SP1 Completely fresh install giving errors signing into EAC

Hi,
I am struggling with a completely clean installation of Server 2012 R2 and Exchange 2013 SP1.  I followed these steps:
Installed Server OS
Windows Updates
Added Active Directory Role (This is a single standalone server that would have been SBS until it was dropped)
Added DHCP & DNS
Added Certificate Services
Added Windows Server Update Services (WID Database & WSUS Services)
Windows Updates
Added Media Foundation
Added File Server Resource Manager and Work Folders
Added Windows Server Backup
Windows Updates
Checked all running without errors in Server Manager and performed a full bare bones backup.
Ran Setup.exe from Exchange 2013 SP1 disc.
Installed Pre-requisites and then rebooted
Windows Updates
Ran Setup.exe from Exchange 2013 SP1 disc.
Installation completed without errors
Rebooted
Checked all running without errors in Server Manager.
I Launch Exchange Administrative Center and get "problem with website's server certificate error" (normal on machine with self-assigned certificates).  Click Continue to Website and get:
Windows Security dialog box:
iexplore - "The server localhost is asking for your username and password.  The server reports that it is from Digest"
however no username and password combination will work:  have tried [Administrator]; [Domain\Administrator] even created a user to no avail.
I believe the issue is somewhere in the IIS configuration because I also get the same error when trying to log into the server website from either the server or another machine on the network.
I have tried the complete installation three times now:  (full disclosure not all of the same features/roles each time).  On the first attempt I got this error immediately and on try number 2 was able to get into the EAC and created the mailboxes
but then it started giving the same error.  The above steps are try number 3.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Andy Halford
P.S. A Follow up which might be significant:  The Default Web Site is not running and will not start (it was previously running before the Exchange installation) and when I try I get the message that Another Website may be using the same port however none
of the others (Exchange Back End or WSUS Administration) are using ports 80 or 443 and I still get the error when they are both stopped.

Could you post the list of sites:
appcmd list site
The ones listening on port 80:
appcmd list site /bindings:http/*:80:
And on port 443:
appcmd list site /bindings:https/*:443:

  • Disappearing disk space Windows Server 2012 R2 with SharePoint Server 2013 Enterprise

    I've got an interesting problem with a virtual machine in our VMWare environment.  It is Windows Server 2012 R2 with SharePoint Server 2013 Enterprise installed.  I started out with a 60GB disk and it started running out of space, so I increased
    it in VMWare and extended the partition to 100GB.  Well, that lasted for a bit and so I extended it again.  I've done this 3 or 4 times and now I've got a 160GB disk with about 2-3GB of space remaining (and it started with 10GB remaining). 
    WinDirStat shows 105GB of <Unknown> space being used, which is probably my issue.  However, I can't determine what this is and it keeps growing like a tapeworm.  The context menu on the <Unknown> files has all the options disabled,
    so WinDirStat doesn't appear to have access to whatever the file(s) is/are.  I've performed several chkdsk /f on the C: drive and nothing bad is reported.  I don't have any restore points and am not running VSS (that I'm aware of).  The pagefile
    reports as being about 4.9GB, so that's not the issue.  No large files are shown anywhere and my explorer settings are set to show me all files, including system files.
    When I try to run WinDirStat with elevated permissions, it hangs and becomes unresponsive. 
    I've even resorted to running CCleaner to see if it found anything, but it simply found the standard temp files and such...about 1GB. 
    I'm pulling my hair out...and I don't have much to start with.  Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks
    Russ

    It appears that somehow, Microsoft Fusion Assembly binding logging was turned on and many of the temp folders located at c:\users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\InetCache\IE were filling up with hundreds of thousands of Fusion HTM log files. 
    This is controlled by an entry in the registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Fusion\ForceLog which was set to 1.  Hopefully, setting it back to zero will fix the issue.  As a result of figuring this out, I have recovered almost 80GB of disk
    space occupied by the log files.
    I thought WinDirStat would show me what I needed to know, but it turns out TreeSize (which I've used in the past) works much better.

  • Server 2003 SBS (with Exchange 2003) migrate to new machine Server 2012 Standard (with Exchange 2013)

    This is what I have:
    A very outdated machine running a small domain, SBS 2003 and Exchange - this is the ONLY server currently.
    This is what my boss ordered:
    A Dell R210 II machine with Server 2012 Standard (and I downloaded the trial for Exchange 2013).
    He wants the old server completely replaced and gone - with everything moved over (including Exchange) to the new machine. The main reason for the upgrade is that not all users can access email on their machines (Macs, new versions of Outlook, etc.)
    I have set up a new standalone server before but never migrated one - and I've found that going from SBS2003/Exchange2003 to Server2012/Exchange2013 is not simple in the least.
    I thought I could just set up the new server as a DC on the domain and have everything replicated to it from the source server. Then I could decommission the old server. I have been told that 1) I can't upgrade Exchange 2003 to 2013 and 2) that I shouldn't
    put Exchange on a DC. What do you do if you only have the one server?

    Hi,
    Just additional. Please also refer to following threads and article, then check if can help you.

    Hi would raid mirror be good enough support configuration on single server run both essentials server 2012  and  exchange 2013  new to exchange look for input and suggestions

    1) Boot Hyper-V from cheap SATA or even USB stick (see link below). No point in wasting SSD for that. Completely agree with Eric. See:
    Run Hyper-V from USB Flash
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj733589.aspx
    2) Don't use RAID controllers in RAID mode rather (as you already got them) stick with HBA mode passing disks AS IS, add some more SSDs and configure Storage Spaces in RAID10 equivalent mode and use SSDs as a flash cache. See:
    Storage Spaces Overview
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh831739.aspx
    Because having single pool touching all spindles would provide you better IOPS compared to creating "islands of storage" that are waste or performance and hell of management.
    3) Come up with IOPS requirements for your workload (no idea from above) keeping in mind RAID10 provides ALL IOPS for reads and half IOPS for writes (because of mirroring). So as single SATA can do maybe 120-150 IOPS and single SAS can do up to 200 (you
    don't provide any model names so we have to guess) you may calculate how many IOPS your config would give away in a best and worst case scenario (write back cache from above will help but you always need to come from a WORST case). See calculator link below.

    Hope this helped a bit :)

  • Can't get OWA to work on Essentials 2012 R2 with Exchange 2013 on second server 2012 R2 std.

    I have previously with success setup a working solution with server 2012 essentials, and a second server 2012 std. with exchange 2013, I did it following this guide: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj200172.aspx
    Unfortunately I lost the server due to a cooling error which led to an un-repairable essentials 2012, since this was a new setup and also a test setup I didn't have any working backup solution setup at the time...tsk.tsk.
    Since I had to make a complete do over I chose to try out the new R2 server editions, and set it up following the same guide, when it came to this part:
    Download KB2732764 for ARR 2.5, and then install the update on the server that is running Windows Server 2012 Essentials.
    Copy the SSL certificate file for Exchange Server to the server that is running Windows Server 2012 Essentials. The certificate file must contain the private key, and it must be in the PFX file format.
    Note
    If you are using a self-issued certificate, follow the instruction in the Exchange Server article Export an Exchange Certificate to export the certificate.
    Open a command window as an administrator, and then open the %ProgramFiles%\Windows Server\Bin directory.
    Based on you installation scenario, follow one of these steps to configure ARR:
    If you are performing a clean setup, run the following command:
    ARRConfig config –cert “path to the certificate file” –hostnames “host names for Exchange Server”
    I noticed that the version of "Application request routing" had changed to version 3, so obviously I didn't need to dl the 2.5 update.. When I came to the part where I wa instructed to run arrconfig config etc. I noticed
    that the ARRconfig file no longer where placed where the setup guide indicated, I then went ahead and tried som manual configuration regarding certificates and such. In the end I have a working solution where Exchange and OWA is working locally but OWA isn't
    working outside my local domain, the link get's placed in the RWA and is indicating the correct link for the exchange server www.remote.clinten.dk I have a certificate which include to separate domain names aforementioned and remote.clinten.dk and
    I get no errors indicating certificate errors, when I try to connect to www.remote.clinten.dk/owa from outside I get a 404 error, and when I connect to www.remote.clinten.dk I get the RWA login screen for the essentials RWA. Obviously I need to set up something
    in ISS probably in the url rewrite section, but I can't seem to find the right setting.. Can someone help with this?
    Btw. I have found the missing arrconfig file in c:\windows\system32\essentials" and tried to run the command as described in the guide "ARRConfig config –cert “path to the certificate file” –hostnames “host
    names for Exchange Server”" but it doesn't seem to work, it just prompts with a guide for using the arrconfig command and examples of correct use, I also tried removing the "" from the guide, like this "ARRConfig
    config –cert path to the certificate file –hostnames host names for Exchange Server",
    when I ran it without the "" It didn't prompt me with anything nor did It indicate any errors, it did not however make my OWA work either..
    I am aware that exchange 2013 atm. isn't officially supported on the R2 server, but the exchange works fine inside my domain, and the pop3/smtp also works from outside, since this Is a test environment, using only my own private domain and not a company
    domain I figured it would be ok to run the risk.. ;)

    "Ok just an update for anyone else how has this issue.
    The problem has been solved by Microsoft and I have included their findings below, but basically it comes down to a typo!
    I often use notepad to have all the commands I need on hand, and I must have copied the command direct from the TechNet article or other website and customised the required fields. The issue with this is one of the characters did not “convert” - for want
    of a better word. I should have retyped the whole command from scratch and it would have been right!
    Thanks for everyone’s input and for Microsoft for getting to the bottom of it.
    From Microsoft:
    We have tested on your environment and here is the investigation result from our senior engineer:
    ================================================================
    Basically the command fails due to invalid parameter, the invalid one is the ‘-‘. I think the one customer used is copied from the online document sample which translate to the unicode is 0x8211 means “en dash”, it
    can’t be input by normal keyboard, so I pretty sure it is from web (mostly HTML document).
    The one we check (compare) is ‘-‘ which has the code 0x45.
    So it always failed to compare the parameter and ARRconfig.exe thought it is invalid parameter.
    The solution is quite simple, just using keyboard to retype the command, using normal ‘-‘ and I have tried the password prompt shows

    I suggest that you should check file system to see what folders or files are taking up the space recently.
    This issue may be not related to Exchange server.
    Please refer to the following article and enable Disk Cleanup Utility. Then monitor the result.

  • 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.

  • Unable to install SQL Server 2012 along with BIDS & VS 2012 on Windows 7

    Unable to install SQL Server 2012 along with BIDS & VS 2012 on Windows 7 professional.
    I get the below error
    Could not find vsjitdebugger.exe
    Blogs say anti-virus is stopping but I dont have one on the system.
    Note: I had used SQL 2008 on the system previously and has a refresh i have deleted all the software to speed up the system.
    Now i could not install both the software.
    Can I get some help regarding this?

    Hi Nandu,
    As your description, you come across an error(vsjitdebugger.exe cannot be found). Please confirm if the error occurs during the installation of SQL Server 2012.  If so, please help post SQL Server setup logs. By default, SQL Server setup log file locates
    in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\110\Setup Bootstrap\Log.
    Base on my research, this error could be caused by that the previous uninstallation is improper and vsjitdebugger.exe file could be mistakenly deleted.
    To troubleshoot the issue, you could start your computer into Safe Mode and fix your problem with one of the following methods. For more information, please refer to the article:
    http://www.fixerrorkit.com/fix-error/fix-vsjitdebugger.exe-error.html.
    1. You could execute the sfc /scannow command following steps below.
    a. Press "Windows+R", type in cmd and then right click "Run as administrator"
    b. Type in sfc /scannow (There's a space between sfc and /scannow) into the dialog and hit Enter key and click ok.
    c. Wait until the System File Checker finishes the check.
    2. You could use a Windows repair installation, also known as a Startup Repair to repair your Windows system files.
    3. You could install the latest Windows updates to fix vsjitdebugger.exe error. Microsoft often releases new service packs and system patches to replace or update some DLL files of Windows system.
    4. You could use third-party tool such as Automatic Error Fix Tool to fix your vsjitdebugger.exe error. However, Microsoft cannot make any representations regarding the quality, safety, or suitability of any third-party software or information found there.
    In addition, if you are unable to install  Visual Studio, I suggest you post your question in Visual Studio Setup and Installation forum at
    https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/home?forum=vssetup  . It is appropriate and more experts will assist you.

  • Outlook 2013 not connect with Exchange server 2013 in internal network

    Hello All,
    I Have two Exchange server 2013 in our environment. Both server install mailbox and CAS role. After configure exchange server 2013, Outlook 2013 not connect in internal network. I have configure outlook manually. i tried by using the suggestion from blog
    but not work. Outlook show that Server cannot connect/ server name could not be resolved. in outlook setting i also put exchange proxy setting. In exchange admin center i have changed the OWA, OAB, Auto discover name. But still not work.
    I know that outlook can be connect from external by using ssl certificate and publish outlook anywhere but i did my configure from internal network. 
    Can you please suggest as soon as possible.
    Thanks,
    Parvez

    Hi,
    Firstly, I’d like to explain, same with external users, internal users use Outlook Anywhere to connect with Exchange server and use Autodiscover get all settings.
    Thus, let’s try the following resolutions:
    1. run the following command: get-clientaccessservice |fl autodiscoverserviceinternaluri
    2. check if the host name in the above URL is in the DNS server and there is a DNS entry about the host name points to the proper IP address.
    3. Check if the above host name is in your certificate.
    Thanks,

  • Setlup Windows Server 2012 like Small Business Server

    I am presently using SBS 2003.  Because SBS has been discontinued and Server Essentials doesn't have Exchange, I have decided to purchase Server 2012 and do Exchange as a VM.  Is there any documentation on how to setup Group Policies in Server
    2012 to mimic SBS?  The features I'm interested in are My Documents redirection and Desktop Redirection.  There are probably a few other features I can't think of simply because all my servers were SBS and I was used to the wizards and
    features that set themselves up automatically.
    Thanks!
     

    Hi,
    Thanks for posting in the forum.
    Regarding your request, please understand that you could configure Folder Redirection polices in GPMC just like SBS 2003. For details, please refer to the following articles.

    In addition, please understand that you could install Windows Server Essentials Experience role on Windows Server 2012, the feature makes you take advantage of all the features that are available
    to you in Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials without the locks and limits enforced in it. For details, please refer to the following article.
