Prev: step for setup mail server in domain
Next: Exchange 2007 - Preventing 'Out of office' for some extern recipie
From: Stephan Steiner on 12 Apr 2010 06:51 I'm trying to upgrade my lab to Exchange 2010 by setting up a new server, then migrating over the mailboxes. Unfortunately, I get stuck pretty early in the process - in setp 4, setup copies a bunch of files to the windowstemp directory, then launches another task, which aborts immediately with the error in question (the messagebox title is "Microsoft Exchange Server 2010"). Since the error doesn't tell me anything, I'm wondering how I can get past it. So far I haven't found any logfiles or eventlog entries that would give me any indication as to what is going wrong.

By the way, that's on a Server 2008 Standard. Since I don't have too much time at my hands the the Language Pack Installer crapping out when trying to download the list from the Internet (Something about FileNotFoundException with HRESULT 0x8007007E), I figured I'd give 2008 Server R2 a shot, and wouldn't you know, my Exchange 2010 is now installing. If only the setup would come with the required logic to install prerequisites manually (and mention that you need the IIS6 tools) the whole prerequisite checking would've gone a lot faster. |
