I have done a ton of searches trying to find a resolution to this error and there are two pages with a similar issue for Exchange 2007 but after trying the solutions suggested, the installation still fails with the same error.

Some additional information:

This is a clean installation of Exchange 2013 in a forest that has never had exchange.

The domain and forest preparations run without errors and are at functional level of 2003.

The Exchange server has all prerequisites installed for a Mailbox server role and is running on a VM with Server 2012 as the OS.

This error occurs on other VMs as well that we are trying to implement as mailbox servers in the same forest.

I am running the installation as an enterprise, schema, domain admin.

Thanks for your help in advance.

We have an Exchange 2007 Server with Service Pack 3 and Rollup 12 applied. I installed a new Exchange 2013 Server and then immediately applied CU3.

I am following this Technet article:

http://blogs.technet.com/b/meamcs/archive/2013/07/25/part-1-step-by-step-exchange-2007-to-2013-migration.aspx

The only deviation from the instruction I have had to do is in Part 2, section 4 “Configure offline address book (OAB)”. Instead of entering:

Get-MailboxDatabase | Set-MailboxDatabase -OfflineAddressBook "\Default Offline Address Book (Ex2013)"

I had to enter:

Get-MailboxDatabase | Set-MailboxDatabase -OfflineAddressBook "\Default Offline Address Book (Ex2012)"

I believe this is due to the fact that the writer installed from an Exchange 2013 CU1 disk and I only had Exchange 2013.

Also when I tried to run:

Move-OfflineAddressBook -Identity "Default Offline Address Book" -Server SRV-EX2013

I get the following error:

Move-OfflineAddressBook : Failed to create the 'ExchangeOAB' folder on the target server 'SRV-EX2013'. Two possible reasons for the failure are that the System Attendant Service is not running or you do not have permission to perform this operation. Error message : 'Catastrophic failure (Exception from RESULT: 0x8000FFFF (E_UNEXPECTED))'.At line:1 char:24+ Move-OfflineAddressBook <<<< -Identity "Default Offline Address Book" -Server SRV-ex2013+ CategoryInfo         : InvalidResult: (Default Offline Address Book:OfflineAddressBookIdParameter) [Move-OfflineAddressBook], LocalizedException  + FullyQualifiedErrorId : 9250969C,Microsoft.Exchange.Management.SystemConfigurationTasks.MoveOfflineAddressBook

However when I looked at the address books in EAC I could see that “Default Offline Address Book (Ex2012)” was the default and that it contained a copy of the Global Address List. So I did nothing else about it.

I am now at Part 3, section 7 “Move Mailboxes” and it keeps failing. I am using the EAC so that I at least see the error as using the powershell brings back no results. Anyway it Syncs the 18 items in the mailbox then fails with:

Data migrated: 936.7 KB ‎(959,145 bytes)‎
Migration rate: 0 B ‎(0 bytes)‎
Error: MigrationPermanentException: Error: An error occurred while updating a user object after the move operation. --> Unable to generate the e-mail address.

Help??

Hello and thanks for peeking into this topic!

We have few AD's and 1 2010 Exchange server and we would like to migrate/consolidate all the AD's and move the 2010 exchange to 2013.

Whats been done so far.

New AD , New 2013 Exchange , Two way trust etc.

We've been able to migrate users with ADMT and Move mailboxes from 2010 to 2013, however we would like to still somehow use AD(1,2) and slowly migrate all of it to ADNew that comes along with mailboxes.

So is it the best way to do that with relay?

Exchange2010 - source

Exchange2013 - target

Someone sends email to cute@domain.com > Cute user does only exist on NewAD > Exchange 2010 forwards email to 2013?

Someone sends email to cute2@domain.com > Cute2 user exists on OldAD1 > Exchanges2010 accepts email and puts it in the Cute2 mailbox :)

Is that my best option ?

Hi Folks,

this is going to be my first cross forest migration, I am quite curious about it. Let put the scenario in front on you, please let me know what could be the best possibility to achieve it.

we have 2 forest in our organization, A.Com a user forest and B.Com a resource forest containing exchange 2010. there is 2 way trust between the 2 forest and the users in forest A.com use the exchange in Forest B.com...

we create users manually in User forest(A.com), and FIM is installed and that is responsible for creating the users in the resource forest (B.Com). those mailboxes are the linked mailboxes.

we are going to have a cross forest migration by creating the new forest C.com, where all the users will be migrated from forest A.com, but we will keep using the forest B.com as resource forest for the users in C.com forest. how these mailboxes will be linked again with those migrated users in C.com, whose mailboxes are already in the resource forest (B.com).

please guide me about above scenario.

BR, Phaixan

I am trying to migrate our public folders from our old 2010 server to the new 2013 one. I have created the folders (one) as per instructions and can see the structure under the name "Public" with "Mailbox1" in ecp but when I run the command to migrate and run the check I see the error referred to above.

We only use one or our existing public folders and I'm wondering about simply unlocking the structure and restoring the emails from Veeam backup.  I need to get rid of the old exchange server for disk space.  However I'd really like to get the migration done properly in case we turn out to need some further stuff.

Is there any way to debug this issue and get the migration done?

Many thanks

Current environment is 4 - Exchange 2010 Enterprise servers running in two sites on a single DAG.  These servers run 2008R2 and are up to date in Exchange (version 14.3 (build 123.4), update rollup 4 for exch 2010 sp3) and Windows patching.  

I'm now looking to transition to an Exchange 2013 environment.  

Ran AD prep and installed Exchange 2013 Enterprise on a 2012 server.  All patching is up to date. 

Running the command Add-DatabaseAvailabilityGroupServer -Identity <DAG> -MailboxServer <FQDN> gives an error of

WARNING: An unexpected error has occurred and a Watson dump is being generated: Server 'servername' must be running
Exchange Server 2010.

Any ideas what can be causing this and how to fix it?

All the Exchange 2013 Prerequisites appeared to install correctly.  The installation of Exchange 2013 on Windows Server 2012 hangs at Initializing Setup.  Then I find event 4027, source MSExchange ADAccess in the application event log.  The same thing happens if I try to prepare the Active Directory from the command prompt. The old Exchange 2007 server and Active Directory Server are on the same network and all firewalls are off.  The entire content of the event is below.  Any ideas appreciated.

Let's use contesso.com as an example.  Let's say the Exchange 2007 server's internal and external name are currently mail.contesso.com.  Now I am going to introduce a new Exchange 2013 server named mail2.contesso.com.  The Exchange Server Deployment Assistant says that we should make the external DNS entry point mail.contesso.com to the 2013 server and legacy.contesso.com point to the 2007 server.  That takes care of external clients.  I don't understand how internal clients will find the correct server because they are all configured for mail.contesso.com which internally points to the 2007 server.  We have over 200 users with multiple devices.  We do not want to be forced to create new Outlook profiles or change the configuration of their mobile devices.

Thanks,

Tina

I have two Exchange 2013 Exchange CA servers running in a HA/Load Balance environment.  Both are missing the Mailbox Replication Service.  I didn't have any errors at any point during my installation.  I look at the list of services on the server and they're simply not there.

If I go to c:\program files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\v15\Bin the exe and config files are there.  I tried just clicking the exe, but nothing changed.  I need to be able to import mailboxes, so this is critical.  I'm sure it is critical for other reasons too.

Anything I can do here?

I'm trying to install Exchange Server 2013 from an ISO download on Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard.  I followed the instructions for the prerequisites.  I was hoping to do the AD Prep using the setup wizard.  I can't get that far as it just stops at Initializing Setup.  No error, just sits there with the progress bar filling up then starting over again.  Any ideas?

Thanks,

Tina

I have tried:

• Disabling the firewall
• Verify the server only has one network interface
• Verify the server is on the same subnet as a writable domain controller
• Enable IPV6 on the domain controller and verify it is enabled on the new server
• Reapplying all the Exchange prerequisites for Windows Server 2012

I have two problems, but the second problem started when I tried to integrate an office web apps server with exchange 2013 so I am putting them into one post.

I have two Windows Server 2012 boxes, one with Exchange 2013 (both roles) one with only Office Web Apps Server 2013. Exchange 2013 was working perfectly internally and externally.

First issue - When I try and preview a document, I get the message "The WebReady Document Viewing service has been disabled by the administration for your organization. For more information, contact your helpdesk"."

I am not using https for this test setup (AllowHttp is True), and the http.../hosting/discovery URL works fine both internally and externally.  I followed this guide to integrate Exchange with my Office WA server:

http://technet.microsoft.com/library/2591b1be-92c4-4192-9f5e-e4e6b319170a

Second issue - if I access Exchange OWA on the internal URL http://server/owa, when I click on a message the right pane says in red text "Your request can't be completed right now. Please try again later.

If I access the external URL (even from an internal computer, where DNS is setup to resolve to the internal IP address of the exchange CAS), everything works fine (except for the Webready Document viewing)

This second issue only started occurring when I tried to integrate office web apps, but even If I remove the WACDiscoveryEndPoint from the exchange OrganizationConfig the problem persists.

Any help appreciated.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So i am trying to get users on the internet (external) to setup outlook using autodiscover. I have created dns cname for autodiscover.domain.tld and this appears to work fine. The question i have is what is outlook looking for on the searching foruser@domain.tld server:

This fails from external but works internal. No doubt it is looking on port 443? Is it looking for mail.domain.tld or something else? Looking in dns? Where does it get the info to know what to look for?

Hi

I have setup a lab where I got windows server 2008 R2 as a DC with windows server 2003 functionality level for the domain, and I installed windows server 2012 R2 then got Exchange 2013 installation on it... I left the installation going and went out of the lab, then next day I noticed that the installation ended with a failure, but some parts of exchange have been installed...

So I ran the uninstall wizard and got it removed without any issues... but when I try to reinstall it again, I do receive error during Readiness Check phase that the user I use is not having the right groups, and the setup was unable to contact the AD server... while I can ping the domain and communicate with it normally...

In the event viewer, I receive the following events:

Hi,

I'm having a frustrating time with trying to migrate public folders. I've migrated all the mailboxes with no problems but when trying to migrate public folders with the same account it fails with this message;

Active directory response: 00002098: SecErr: DSID-03150BB9, problem 4003
(INSUFF_ACCESS_RIGHTS), data 0
 --> The user has insufficient access rights.

The account is in the organisation management and recipient management group.

I've tried ticking the inherit permission box in AD security.

I've tried creating a brand new account with the same permissions.

Nothing works. I'm tempted just to export to pst and import it to the public folder mailbox.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

hi, currently im having microsoft exchange 2013 in server 2012 standard. when i running my outlook 2007/2010/2013 , it will keep showing connecting and disconnected. once i restart microsoft exchange rpc client access and it will be working fine for temporary, around 10 min later and it will happend again, can advise?

Hello all,

We are installing Exchange 2013 servers in a different AD site at a different country. I configured OAB virtual directories and URLs just like any other virtual directory.

But when I do autodiscover tests, I see that for OABUrl parameter I'm getting other Site's OAB URL in results, such as:

<ASUrl>https://email.domain1.com/EWS/Exchange.asmx</ASUrl>
<OOFUrl>https://email.domain1.com/EWS/Exchange.asmx</OOFUrl>
<OABUrl>https://outlook.domain2.com/OAB/7309eb36-7962-40ab-8b80-574c698d830c/</OABUrl>
<UMUrl>https://email.domain1.com/EWS/UM2007Legacy.asmx</UMUrl>

I am afraid this will cause too much OAB proxying and will utilize the VPN between these headquarters.

What may cause that misconfiguration? Where should I be looking at apart from the OAB virtual directory configuration?

Regards,

Hi,

I’m hoping someone here can help me in regards to Exchange 2013, SSL certificates, IIS ARR and Remote Desktop WEbAccess/GW. Half of the issue is that i’m not an Exchange/IIS/windows admin so a lot of the concepts are relatively new to me. I do apologies if these questions are noobish, but after a solid hours searching around i’m no closer to a working solution.

The idea is that as we only have 1 public IP to have all HTTPS (443) traffic direct to the IIS server and based on the sub domain and it will redirect to the appropriate server. Ie. webmail.domain.com/owa to exchange, webRD.domain.com to RD Webaccess/GW server.

I have tried to configure this as a POC and it is partially working however i’m having two main issues. One with certificates for the services and second been WebAccess/ GW traffic routing.

Certificates: Focusing on OWA, the same thing happens to RD. When i access the webmail.domain.com/owa from a client on the external interface of IIS, IIS does its thing and redirects me to the exchange owa web interface. However the issue is that it presents me with the SSL cert of host.domain.com instead of the webmail.domain.com.  So the questions is how do i create a cert the covers the external dns name without giving me an cert mismatch when it redirects to the local exchange server? Ideally i need two certs one created by me for POC testing and later on one by a trusted CA.

Also the second issue on certs is that it appears i’m only able to bind 1 cert to the entire IIS server. I have the relevant certs from the exchange server and TS server added to the cert repository under the IIS server settings. However under “site binding” for the “default Web Site” i can only have 1 cert bound to 443.  The issue i see her is that since the server will be redirecting multiple sites i need it to host certs for multiple external site names. (webmail, webapps, webRDP,  xxxx.domain.com)

WebAccess: The issue is after you log into the web portal from external client via external nic on IIS where it does its redirect, if you try to start the application it does not open with cannot connect to server. The issue appears to created because the client does not have direct access to the TS WebAccess server and the server does not have outbound access. I’ve searched around and could not find if the WebAccess server initiates the connection outbound once the client starts the app. I would of through that the connection would continue to get routed via the IIS Redirect.  The issue is mediated when i add a direct link between the client and the TS server when the initial connection is from the client to the IIS external, however this is not a solution. Based on netstat there is an active connection between the client and TS webApp directly without IIS.

Any help with this major headache would be highly appreciated. 

Thank you.
