cpjitservices Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Hi all. I have come in this morning to configure a mailbox only to find out that I have this error: I have ran the 'winrm quickconfig' with no luck and I have also rebooted. Anyone any ideas ? Thanks in Advance! Chris.
twin--turbo Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Event logs, is this an OWA server as well as the Mailstore? If so is IIS running at all? can you query the database via powershell? Rob 1
3s-gtech Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Silly as it sounds, our Exchange server managed to brick itself because we had time drift between our DCs. Fixed the time, and all was well. Check all of your clocks are at the same time, on DCs and the Exchange box. 1
cpjitservices Posted December 17, 2013 Author Posted December 17, 2013 Yes this server runs everything, Its the mailstore and we access OWA from this server. It's been a while since I've had to touch this server to be honest, I have checked IIS and I have a '?' on my Default Web Site...... NO idea why and Restart of IIS seems to do nothing. Wish I could remember how to query in PowerShell.... Google is my friend
Domino Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 If you login with another Account does the same happen? I've seen a corrupt profile cause this error. Are all the services with automatic start running? 1
cpjitservices Posted December 17, 2013 Author Posted December 17, 2013 Have checked time on both my servers ... time is 3 seconds out.
cpjitservices Posted December 17, 2013 Author Posted December 17, 2013 I have just logged on with the Administrator account (bad I know) and same error applies. Have checked services and everything is on Automatic - except for Exchange RPC which is on Auto but delayed start. If you login with another Account does the same happen? I've seen a corrupt profile cause this error. Are all the services with automatic start running?

mb2k01 Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Check the basics first. Look at NIC settings and make sure that the DNS addresses are valid. Make sure that the servers on the end of those addresses are healthy and in sync. Check that your GC server(s) are all functioning too. If you've recently removed any GC's this may well be related. 1
Homer Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Just a stab in the dark, is https enabled on the site in IIS and the correct ports binded for https? Certificates OK? Anything else in event logs from kerberos or domain authentication messages? DNS ok? Any clues on the DC? 1
twin--turbo Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Try setting IIS to not require SSL and restart IIS. Rob 1

cpjitservices Posted December 17, 2013 Author Posted December 17, 2013 Everything on the DC is fine, the only thing users are experiencing is Outlook going on and off because im trying to fix Exchange. Have checked all the basics, Exchange did do an update last night and the update was a .NET update so I'm guessing that could of borked it. I've just ran A Repair on .NET and nothing has changed. Nothing has changed on any of the other servers either regarding GC or DNS, everything except Exchange Management Console and IIS is healthy. This is a bit of a problem - Users cant access OWA from outside either! - this is because IIS seems to be broken - ? on Default Web Site. All bindings are correct. Nothing has changed there, it's the same as it's always been. **Starting to pull Hair out**
cpjitservices Posted December 17, 2013 Author Posted December 17, 2013 Certificates Seems fine, valid until 2017. SSL Seems fine too - or it did this morning when our users were using OWA.
cpjitservices Posted December 17, 2013 Author Posted December 17, 2013 Have just ran Powershell on the Exchange server, can't connect to it so can't query anything.
Homer Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Does OWA work internally? What are you getting when you try to hit OWA from externally? Sounds like something is screwed with SSL somewhere along the line, Exchange can be a PITA if SSL configuration gets borken. 1

mb2k01 Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 try running the wizards on https://testconnectivity.microsoft.com/ and see what steps it fails on, it should give you an idea on what stage its failing on 1
cpjitservices Posted December 17, 2013 Author Posted December 17, 2013 thanks all will give this a try, yes IPV6 is definitely disabled. OWA is broken externally and internally, In Chrome the error is 'The web page is not availble'
cpjitservices Posted December 17, 2013 Author Posted December 17, 2013 Seems to be Autodiscover is borked.
twin--turbo Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Seems to be Autodiscover is borked. Does IIS serve anything? Rob 1
cpjitservices Posted December 17, 2013 Author Posted December 17, 2013 Yes, I believe IIS is serving everything. Here is the error message.

mb2k01 Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Do you specifically know that autodiscover has ever worked? I've seen a lot of installations in schools that would give those kind of errors, even though internal and external clients work. Based on what is pasted there i'd be inclined to stay away from worrying about autodiscover for a bit - especially if your internal clients aren't able to send/receive or login? 1
twin--turbo Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Have you ever used autodiscover externaly before? Rob 1
