Exchange 2010/IIS trouble

$
0
0

I've got a 2010 Exchange Server that recently got damaged due to a software installation (since removed).  The Exchange IIS configuration was replaced/wrecked during the software install.  I tried to repair it by using an older configuration file, but I only succeeded in making things worse.  The following are no longer working:

-Windows Process Activation Service (WAS)

-Application Host Helper Service

-WWW Publishing Service

I've tried to remove and reinstall the IIS role (from Server 2008 R2)...but that failed because some IIS services cannot start.  I would like to:

1.  Remove and reinstall IIS

2.  Re-establish the default Exchange IIS configuration

3. Get EMC working again

Is it possible to do this without rebuilding the server? Thank you.

Hi people,

First of all happy new year. I am having a problem recently with my 2010 exchange server. Some of my users claim that they are not able to received email with attachments. 

I tested sending from my gmail to my exchange mailbox with and without attachment i received well. But when i test sending from my hotmail with attachment, i don't received anything at all. But i am able to received emails from hotmail if there isnt any attachment. The attachment is just a normal PDF. 

I am wondering if any experts can give any pointers?

Missing Flags from Cookie in OWA

$

Recently had a PCI compliance scan on server running SBS 2011 fail due to following errors:

1)  Missing Secure Flag From SSL Cookie

2)  Missing HttpOnly Flag From Cookie

I came across a previous similar question that was answered by Xiu Zhang with an answer of "it cannot be changed" and "it is by design".  I also ran across another article elsewhere, where an individual apparently successly set these flags by placing the line

<httpCookieshttpOnlyCookies="true"requireSSL="true"/>

in the web.config file for OWA.  This however broke OWA in my case, as in the case of the previous question.

The bottom line is that the ASV will only give me an exception "if you can confirm that the cookies missing this flag are only used before authenticating and that they do not contain sensitive data".  This essentially means I need either some documentation or semi-official confirmation from someone at Microsoft that this is the case.

Hide rooms for certain users

Hello,

This question has probably been asked (and hopefully answered). Is it possible to hide certain bookable rooms for some users? We currently have some rooms that is available to book for everybody and some rooms that just a few people can book. Is it possible to hide these rooms for everybody except the ones that could book the rooms? Running Exchange 2010 SP1.


exchange journaling issue

$

Hi all,

I have a co-existing 2003/10 environment where mailflow is 100%, however, journaling is failing when a message is sent from an exchange 2010 mailbox to the 3rd party solution (trying to find out what this is as we speak). If the message originated in 2003 it is successfully received. This occurs with any format (plain/rich/html) of message.

Journal RemoteContact_<remoteIDName> <mailto:<36 character address with hyphens>@3rdparty.com>

The e-mail system had a problem processing this message. Exchange won't try to deliver this message again.

<36 character address>@xyz.com> #< #5.6.1 smtp;554 5.6.1 Body type not supported by Remote Host> #SMTP#

If you send to the mailbox directly from exchange 2010, messages are successfully received at the 3rd party

Are there any changes made to a journaled message in 2010? or is it a straightforward forward?

TIA

Exchange 2010 Shell Access Denied

$

Hello, 

Since 2 days suddenly our EMS stopped working, it has worked fine up until now.
When we start the Management shell we are getting "Access Denied" from each of our exchange servers(we have 4). (http://i47.tinypic.com/16bbioj.jpg)

We are running Exchange 2010 Sp1 (/hosting mode), all Enterprise Exchange servers. 2 servers in a DAG setup, and 2 servers in a CAS array.

I have looked at possible problems coming from WinRM by reconfiguring it and by running the EMThooter.
the EMThooter came with the following results; http://i46.tinypic.com/vmpztj.jpg

The servers are running Forefront Server Protection, and they have been running this.

The only thing i think it might have cause is Exchange 2010 Sp1 Rollup8, this was installed a few days ago. however i was unable to link it to the issue other then the moment it was installed.

I hope i have provided enough information like this, and i hope you guys can point me into the right direction to fix this.

Regards,

Reinier van Dijk



Rollup 8 for Exchange 2010 fails with error code 89B

In Windows Update, other updates succeed, but Rollup 8 for Exchange 2010 fails with error code 89B. In previous post (about Rollup 4) the advice was to check the account had sufficient permissions. I'm running Windows Updates as domain administrator and won't Windows updates run using a system account? Should I download the rollup and try running it from an elevated command prompt?

exchange 2010 send connector load balancing

$

Dear all,

I believe that the 2003 way of load balancing send connectors with cost is no more applicable to 2010 email routing  i mean like if i have two connectors with cost 1 and 2 respectively. 2003 is gonna use the connector with cost one always and when this fails its gonna use the connector with the cost 2. From the forums i assume this wont work the same way in 2010 somebody correct me please if i am wrong.

i have two smarthosts and one smarthost is in a remote site. i have created single send connector with two smarhosts in it and the exchange is load balancing between those two, since the second smarthost is in a remote site the mails routed through this are delayed than the other ones. is there any way i can set the smarthost one which is local as most preferable so that almost all the emails go through this smarthost which is local and when this is not available exchange takes the remote smarthost.

please do let me know.

thanks in advance.

thanks

Hi All,

Looking for some advice, a little background information first. I have an exchange 2003 server that sits on our LAN with a Client Access server for OWA sitting in the DMZ. I have just setup an exchange 2010 enterprise server, once again on our LAN and want the Client Access for OWA to sit on the same server as our exchange 2003 OWA, just until i'm ready to decommission the exchange 2003 server. Is this possible or am I looking at a seperate server for this?

Manay thanks in advance,

Alex.

Outlook 2003 and Exchange 2010 SP1-RU6 - free-busy displays very slowly, seems to be getting slower

$

We set up a new domain and moved our users to mailboxes on a new Exchange 2010 organization several months ago. We have not been using the calendar features of Exchange until about a month ago.

Outlook 2003 users are now seeing delays when opening the scheduling tab of a calendar item with multiple attendees, so that the free-busy information for each of those users is displayed.  Each user will show up with a grey bar, and take a long time (usually around 45 seconds per user) to update to the blue bands showing free and busy times. Obviously when displaying 10 or 20 users or more, this is taking an extremely long time to complete.

We also have Outlook 2010 users, and they are not having this problem at all. Free-busy information displays nearly immediately for large numbers of users. We haven't checked with Outlook 2007 since we are not generally using it, but I expect that since it doesn't use public-folder based Free-busy publishing, it should also have no issue.

We have four Outlook 2010 SP1-RU6 mailbox servers, with public folder databases on two of those servers. The Schedule+ Free Busy system folders are replicated to both servers and both have the same number of items in the folders (a bit over 15,000 items). I took a look with the MDBVU32 tool at the contents of the folders and found items for each of the users I was looking at, so the folders appear to be correctly populated.

First, is 45 seconds per user an unusually long time to display the free-busy data? It seems so to me, but since we had not been using calendar data before I don't have a baseline to compare against.

I am assuming that this is some sort of issue with retrieving this data from the public folder. Users have suggested that these lookups were originally faster but have been getting slower recently. Lookups also seem to run faster during off-hours when less users are accessing the mailbox servers. Is this likely to be a performance issue with the mailbox & public folder servers?

If anyone has suggestions for how to further investigate this issue, or have seen similar behavior in your environments, I would appreciate your suggestions.

Regards, James

Is there a way to set exceptions on Forefront to allow emails from a certain domain to be delivered?

$

Hi

We have a company who are sending one of our users .exe files which Forefront is blocking.

I don't want to allow all .exe files though, so was wondering if there is a way to set a rule on Forefront which allows emails from a certain domain or address to be delivered.

The emails are always sent to one of our users, so an alternate would be to stop Forefront from quarantining email for her.

Thanks

Exchange 2010 recommendations for best config please

$

HI

I have a client that is migrating from Exchange 2003 to 2010. There are two sites, one accessible from the internet, one remote site only accessible from the primary site via a private IP link. It is a mining company and most users are at the remote site so it has its own Exchange Server. E2010 has been installed at both sites and is working properly at the main site, eg email can get delivered to either server and it puts it in the right server depending on where the mailbox is (including the remote 2003 server). The issues we are having are related to the remote site and remote access. Its E2010 server just wont send or receive email. If a user mailbox is on either remote server, logging in via the normal webmail URL redirects but cannot find the remote server.

What I need to know is the best way to sort it. Should we set up routing to be able to give the remote Exchange server direct internet access with its own SSL certificate or is there a better way, eg a "front end" server to handle all connections and proxy the data back and forth accordingly. If so, what role is best suited? A CAS server at the main site only will result in the remote site users all going over the private link (only 2mbps with Silver Peak WAN accelerators), I am not sure how the edge transport server actually works or if we use the hub transport role differently.

The original setup was way before my time and was hacked together without any SSL which we are now trying to add in, The E2010 server has SSL but none of the other servers do yet.

Thanks, Ben
