I am REALLY struggling with this exchange install.
Current exchange environment is Exchange 2010 SP3.
I am getting an error when trying to install the Mailbox Role: Mailbox Service. I can see only one "error" but at this stage i'm sure my eyes aren't catching everything.
--------
"Address list or global address list "livingstonisd.com/Configuration/Deleted Objects/HIgh School Staff List
DEL:acf86229-9d20-4e80-b99b-47daf139e822" was not found. Please make sure you typed the identity correctly.".
----------
I cannot seem to find this object its referencing. I have checked in ADSI on AD inside of configuration and I cannot find THIS address book. All of my ones that are supposed to be there are.
I may well have this one pegged wrong.... here is the entire error so someone can tell me if I simply missed my problem in amongst all this.
