Hi Guys,

I am having trouble moving a user's mailbox from one datastore to another on exchange 2013. It shows a message the it is stalled due to an unknown read. The mailbox is 8 gig and I have been able to migrate it from 2010 to 2013 previously.

Regards

Kaylin

I went to install the CU5 update today and it fails on the step Mailbox role: transport service.

Error:
The following error was generated when "$error.Clear(); 
          $connectors = Get-ReceiveConnector -Server $RoleFqdnOrName;

When I try to re-run the setup, it fails at the same spot. I can't use the ECP nor the Shell to remove the Receive Connector (it is just a receive connector for the MFP).

Is there any way to remove this receive connector with Powershell not working?

I am convinced my clients are getting the wrong certificate and that's why they can't connect. I investigated the certificate they ARE getting and I don't believe it (certificate) is configured correctly and I have another one I'd like to use. How do I tell Exchange 2013 what certificate to present? I had deleted it out of Exchange using the EAC but it is still presented to the Outlook clients.

Hi,

After a fresh install of a Windows Server 2012R2 installation with Exchange 2013 SP1 (Twice) i cannot get into the ECP panel.

I keep getting a .NET error which states that it can`t load the assembly or an dependency

of Microsoft.Exchange.Management.ControlPanel

I`ve already tried to rebuild the ECP directory but that didn`t work.

Error message is in dutch (Sorry)

Details van uitzondering: System.IO.FileLoadException: Kan bestand of assembly Microsoft.Exchange.Management.ControlPanel of een van de afhankelijkheden hiervan niet laden. Kan handtekening van de sterke naam niet verifiëren. Mogelijk is er geknoeid met de assembly of is deze met vertraging maar niet volledig ondertekend met de juiste persoonlijke sleutel. (Uitzondering van HRESULT: 0x80131045)

Can`t post any images yet untill my account gets verified..

Hi,

i have installed exchange server 2013 on separate servers, I deployed the Mailbox role on the first server, and the CAS role on the second server.

I checked the edition using the exchange management shell on the mailbox server and on the CAS server:

>>>

[PS] C:\Windows\system32>Get-ExchangeServer | fl name,edition,admindisplayversion

Name                : EXMBX
Edition             : Standard
AdminDisplayVersion : Version 15.0 (Build 516.32)

Name                : EXCAS
Edition             : Standard
AdminDisplayVersion : Version 15.0 (Build 516.32)

<<<

My question is, is it possible to update this current edition to the "Cumulative update 5 for Exchange Server 2013 (KB293688) ?

if it is, in my case, on which servers should i install this update ? on the Mailbox server ? or on the CAS server ?

i appreciate you fast response,

Thanks.

I am attempting to configure Office Web Apps for Outlook Web App (why on earth did they name them both OWA!?)

I have used this guide from Microsoft with no errors:

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj150495(v=exchg.150).aspx

with this guide as well for reference:

http://www.msexchange.org/articles-tutorials/exchange-server-2013/management-administration/exchange-2013-office-web-apps-server-integration.html

I am using my Office Web App Server that we use for Sharepoint and Lync (so it's already confirmed working). 

In the guide, they state that I'm looking for Event ID 140 and 142 (meaning successful config) and a 141 Event for a failure. Problem is, I'm not getttingany events. It's like I'm not entering the powershell commands at all. 

A wise man is a fool, with a good memory.

Hello i've installed SP1 on exchnage 2013 ( windows 2012 ) ant it failed with this error

Hi,

I am in the process of implementing Exchange 2013 in coex with 2007. I am testing now in a copy of the production environment and have installed the Exchange 2007 SP3 RU11 prior to installing Exchange 2013 using the SP1 media.

We use a wildcard certificate and I prepared the Exchange 2007 internal/external URLs for OWA/OAB/etc to use the legacy.domain.com names and in Exchange 2013 I set them all to email.domain.com. Exchange 2013 has Outlook Anywhere configured.

All tests like autodiscover (internally via SCP) run fine and for a new Exchange 2013 mailbox the Outlook and OWA functionality is as expected. A mailbox still on 2007 also connects fine via Outlook and while connecting to OWA (using the htps://email.domain.com/owa url) also redirects me to https://legacy.domain.com/owa just fine.

HOWEVER: after a successfull mailbox-move from 2007 to 2013 my OWA logon-request STILL get's redirected to the 2007 legacy URL. When I then logon again on the 2007 OWA I get the message that I should connect to the 2013 URL and end-up in a loop.

Anyone any tips where to search?

Many thanks in advance.

Best regards and many thanks in advance, Eric Vegter

I have 3 new exchange 2013 physical servers, all 3 return this BPA critical error, see below - doesn't make sense.

Hey All,

Forgive my ignorance here but I'm trying to get a batch migration underway and I'm having a nightmare getting the syntax to work can someone shed some light on this for me, I've got;

New-MigrationBatch -Name -FailedUsers -CSVData ([System.IO.File]::ReadAllBytes("'C:\Exchange Migration\Batch1Users.csv'")) -TargetDatasbases @(DB01, DB02, DB03)

Cannot process argument transformation on parameter 'CSVData'. Cannot convert value

 Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.
At line:1 char:108
+ ... etDatasbases @(DB01 DB02 DB03)

This has been taken from the TechNet article and its failing on the CSVData and also the TargetDatabases

HELP!! :)

We're in the process of migrating from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013.  I've followed the prerequisites, and have the necessary account permissions, but when I start the installation it fails at step 1 of 5 (mailbox role:mailbox service).

This warning shows up in the application log:

I am trying to install Exchange 2013 and we already have Exchange 2007 in our production environment.

Running the command get-exchangeserver |fl give the following. It shows IsCleintAccessServer : False, I am pretty sure I did select both the roles at the time of installation.

IsE15OrLater                    : True
IsProvisionedServer             : False
IsUnifiedMessagingServer        : True
IsFrontendTransportServer       : False

I can see all the virtual folders in IIS and while trying to access the ecp page using https://localhost:444/ecp?exchclientver=15, it says "Sorry! Access Denied".

Get-ecpvirtualdirectory gives no output.

If I try to uninstall I get the following error.

I would like to uninstall this server and do a fresh install. Tried recover option too, still facing same problem.

HELP!!!

I was trying to uninstall exchange 2013 and in that process I disabled two default mailboxes created by Exchange 2013.

Reason to uninstall was because my CAS was missing, re ran setup and installed CAS but now want to enable the disabled default mailboxes.

But now cannot even mount the database.

I get the following error while mounting the database.

Couldn't mount the database that you specified. Specified database: Mailbox Database 0424069483; Error code: An Active Manager operation failed. Error: The database action failed.

Please help - I had disabled the mailboxes on 12th of last month so still have few days to enable it before it gets deleted permanently.

I'm in the process of moving mailboxes from Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013, the major of the mailboxes have moved successfully, however I did not anticipate the additional space required by Exchange 2013 and ran out of disk space during the mailbox move, and some mailboxes did not move successfully.

I have since added additional space but can't seem to get the remaining mailboxes to sync.

I have tried :

Rebooting

Clearing out migration batches and recreating

Stopping and resuming batches.

I see nothing helpful in the Migration log files.

Additional Info:  I followed the info located here in regards to creating the ContentSubmitters group:

http://www.bullspit.co.uk/2013/04/08/exchange-2013-content-indexing-during-migration/

My mailbox database currently has Content index state: FailedAndSuspended

I only have one database, I am not using DAG

We have setup Office 365, we have added Single Sign-on with ADFS/ADFS Proxy and we have run the Hybrid configuration Wizard which completed successfully. Users are able to sign on to Office 365 and users are able to use OWA on-premise, but I am confused on how we get all these to work together and not separately. Is there a specific license we need that allows the user to see both their On Premise Mail plus OneDrive together?

We are using Exchange 2013 as our mail provider and currently we have the Education A2 plan.

Thank you in advance

Jesse,

Hey there,

I have an existing exchange 2010 2x member dag and now a new exchange 2013 2x member dag in coexistence mode.

After testing with a few mailboxes, migrations were extremely slow, and I cannot do that for our entire environment.  So I removed one of the 2013 DAG members, leaving a single exchange 2013 member by itself in the dag.  Mailbox migration speed increased from 15MB per minute to 350MB per minute.

Here is my question, either 1 or 2, or none of those, in which case I would love if you could give me option 3.

1.  Should I continue to migrate the entire environment to the single new exchange 2013 server, and after migrations are complete, add the 2nd dag member and make database copies?

2. Or should I add the 2nd member back into the dag first, and use the Suspend-MailboxDatabaseCopy command to suspend database copies until the migrations are done, then resume it?
