OWA 2010

[hagridsbeard]

Morning guys, having a bit of a headache here. We've got Exchange 2010 on the network and running OWA for staff and students to access email from the clients PC. However, it's suddenly started playing up. Externally it works great, but internally, you can open email, but not send or open address books. It just sits there. You can also read the first email, but none of the others even though it doesn't seem to have hung.

 

I thought maybe it was an IE8/XP tjhing, but it happening on our Win 7 IE9 machines too, as well as under administrator accounts.

 

Has anyone seen this or something similar as it's upsetting staff (not that that takes much).

possibly try rebooting your exchange server, sometimes ours does weird things and a nice reboot usually gives it a kick up the backside.

Nope, done that a good few times. Someone suggested it may be due to trusted sites, but changing that doesn't seem to have fixed it. Really odd that it does it to admin too, which siggests it is something to do with the computers GPO, but it's pretty clean so I'm at a loss.

I sorted it earlier today. No idea why, but the DivX HTML5 Video plug-in was stopping OWA from working properly. Disabled that plug-in via GPO and it all kicked back in. Very odd.
