    Hi, I left education a couple of years back so won’t be of any use most likely, however, as mentioned in my last post, YoYo games provided a customised version which addressed all issues. Have you got in touch with them?

    Well turns out all users accessing this site need to be added to the hosting server's 'Local Policies > User Rights Assignment > Access this computer from the network' policy. It was an accidental discovery by adding a test user to a few groups in order to test this issue further. I addressed another issue prior to this where the following error is displayed when a foreign SID attempts to RDP to servers in this domain where NLA is in use. The solution for this was to add users to this same policy or add them to the local administrators group on the server. This would explain why some users authenticated whereas others didn't - Not all of the SharePoint users were RDP allowed users... It didn't help not having an error display or appearing in any logs. All I got was a the credential prompt window over and over again. Especially frustrating in a domain which locks out accounts after three failed attempts. Hope this helps someone else.

    Anyone at all? If I could find logs for authentication then that would at least be a start but not having a lot of luck finding where these may be! There's nothing in the Application/System event logs for a start.

    Hi, I have a SP site which is setup to authenticate with an external two-way trust domain. I've used the stsadm tool to configure the people-picker to browse this domain and add users/groups to this site. For the most part authentication works fine but have a select few (not disabled) which just can't login. The check permissions tool says that have the desired relevant access but the login prompt just keeps re-appearing. Here's where it gets stranger. Sometimes my own trusted domain account takes three attempts to login before this is accepted whereas others are allowed in straight away! Are there any logs for troubleshooting login at all? I'm struggling to find these. What could be the problem? I'd be happier if this just didn't work across the board to make troubleshooting a bit easier but then this job would be easy wouldn't it Any advice much appreciated.

    Hi, Yes, I know I got the letters above in the wrong order. Should have been FSRM doh! I'm trying to setup a Custom task to delete files of a certain age in the folder C:\TestFolder. In this example I want all files older than 1 day to be deleted, not moved. I've created a script: C:\Temp\Del.cmd with content: del *.* /s /q File Management Task Action: Custom Executable: C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe Arguments: /c C:\Temp\Del.cmd Working Directory: Directory to which the file management task applies Command Security: Local System Condition: 1 day since file was created This is working fine, however, It deletes all files regardless of condition. I'm sure this is because I have *.* in the command path. Obviously I can add arguments in the script for the condition but then you may as well just create a windows scheduled task to run this. Any ideas how I can get the script to adhere to the FRSM FMT conditions?

    Ok, looks like this is to do with MSBA as is the tool which creates wsusscn2.cab by the looks of it. http://clintboessen.blogspot.co.uk/2009/11/perform-offline-mbsa-scan.html - Clint Boessen's Blog: Perform an Offline MBSA Scan This explains the file but not why there's hundreds of them in this location and why they're there when I've not downloaded them manually!? I am running an old version of MSBA on this server (v2.0) so am going to upgrade this to the latest version (v2.3) to see if this fixes the issue.

    Hi Guys, I'm having a problem with Temporary Internet Files (Specifically wsusscn.cab files) filling up the local drive in the following location "C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5". This location is not controlled through the Logged on user's IE session as Temp Internet Files for the logged on user exist in "C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files" so running a delete from the Browsing history section doesn't make a difference. Space can be restricted from this section too so have some level of control be it manually or through GPO but how do I control the systemprofile location? I'm thinking this will be more a Computer Configuration setting through GPO rather than User Configuration as would normally be the case for controlling user settings seeing as this is the system profile so possibly a setting under "Computer Config > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Internet Explorer > Internet Control Panel > General Page > Browsing History"? Cheers

    Well I've finally got the bottom of this much to my relief...and exhaustion. Turns out it was down to an issue with some code in the PowerShell script "C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\Bin\ManageScheduledTask.ps1" which the RU ran during the install process. Running this manually resulted in the error: At C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\Scripts\ManageScheduledTask.ps1:462 char:5 + return $success + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Flow of control cannot leave a Finally block. + CategoryInfo : ParserError: ( [], ParentContainsErrorRecordException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : ControlLeavingFinally Solution was provided in the last post here: http://www.expta.com/2012/08/exchange-2010-sp2-roll-up-4-does-not.html I'm obviously installing a later RU but was still getting the same "control cannot leave a finally block" error during manual run.

    I've actually managed to get a little further with this now following the last post on this site https://translate.google.co.uk/translate?hl=en&sl=de&u=http://www.mcseboard.de/topic/197327-exchange-2010-sp3-rollup-5-installiert-nicht/&prev=search It now goes through with the process but then fails starting the service at the end and so still rolls back annoyingly. Again, the log file isn't the most helpful and still pointing at PS execution policy but I've triple checked this and it's set to unrestricted and not being applied in any way by GPO.

    I forgot to add that I'd already tried applying rollup 15 and so tried this version (12) to see if it was this particular file, it wasn't. The same outcome happens regardless of version of rollup applying.

    I'm running v14.03.0266.001 which according to https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh135098%28v=exchg.150%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396 is update rollup 11 although the version end is different there being a 002 rather than 001. This is a new job and am tasked with making sure all servers are installing updates as per WSUS schedule. This one was failing and so am investigating but don't think I'd be given free reign to start again with this or do any sort of recovery. Maybe if I'd set this up from the start I'd be confident with this but wouldn't be a good start to the role taking such drastic action. @HPlum78: Unified Messaging? SP3 is already installed along with all rollups up to 11. I'm not the Exchange administrator and haven't had previous experience of this. I'm literally tasked with updating the server with the latest updates at this time.

    Just a little bump as still none the wiser with this one.

    Ok, so having spent more time on this with the help of the following article (technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff772434(v=exchg.80).as​px), it appears that all of the above errors are false positives and generated only because verbose logging is enabled. What I have found is that the first "Return value 3" event is what'll provide me with the real cause. In this instance this points to the inability to run a PS script as per case 1 in the above troubleshooting article but my policy is set to unrestricted on the server so should be able to run so again I'm a little confused.

    Hi, I'm using the remote WSUS console from my computer on one subnet to connect to two different WSUS servers on two different subnets. I've managed to connect to one ok but the second one gives me the following error: Cannot connect to 'ServerName'. The server may be using another port or different Secure Sockets Layer setting. The WSUS server is running on port 80 and can connect to this via telnet so a little stumped as to why this isn't connecting. Connection traffic has been confirmed by the Firewall provider upstream so is getting through. Any ideas?

    Hi, I'm a little stuck with applying an Exchange 2010 sp3 rollup package. I have all up to pack 11 installed but 12 fails to install with a 1603 error rolling back as soon as it stops the services. The log has a variety of errors so will post snippets of each and hopefully someone will be able to help. These errors are in reverse order with last one in the log first. Followed by There are no interim updates present in the ARP list The next is a little confusing as there only appears to be one architecture version (x64) of this rollup available as far as I can see. I've been trying to find out how to check which version of Exchange is installed but not managed to find this yet. I'm pretty sure it's 64-bit. The rollup package is x64. The next one seems contradictory as am logged on as a domain administrator which in turn has Exchange Server Administrator permissions. I've also got another domain administrator to try installing this with no luck. Then I dare say these are all errors relating to different components being installed in the rollup so hard for me to put my finger on it. I've been running the installer from an administrator prompt and UAC is disabled as per many suggestions out there. Am I missing anything obvious?
