SBS 2008, Exchange 2007 & Outlook 2007...
in [Microsoft Exchange]

From: Mikey on 18 Jun 2010 21:15 Sorry for the cross-posting, but I'm hoping someone out there will have an answer for me. Last weekend, I completed a migration from a 2003 SBS to a 2008 SBS. A few glitches here & there, but one of the major problems is users at a remote office cannot get their email now using Outlook 2007. It worked fine with Exchange 2003, but not Exchange 2007 - why? I have been on the Technet forums & last I was told this is not a certificate error, as these clients are able to connect via OWA with no problems or any warnings. Blackberries, iPhones, or any other kind of smart phones have no problems, either. When users try to open Outlook, they are prompted for a username & password. I entered domain\username & then was prompted, twice, something like would I like to allow autodiscover.exchange.mydomain.xml to configure the settings (can't remember exactly & can't get message to come up again), but I said yes, twice & the in the lower right I get an alternating 'trying to connect' message, followed by a 'disconnected' message. I created an SRV record & deleted the * (All others) out of my public DNS records. When running the Test Email Configuration from one of the clients, I get the following: Autodiscover to https://mydomain.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml starting Autodiscover to https://mydomain.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml FAILED (0x800C8203) Autodiscover to https://autodiscover.mydomain.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml starting Autodiscover to https://autodiscover.mydomain.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml FAILED (0x800C8203) Local autodiscover for mydomain.com starting Local autodiscover for mydomain.com FAILED (0x8004010F) Redirect check to http://mydomain.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml starting Redirect check to http://mydomain.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml FAILED (0x80072EE7) Srv Record lookup for mydomain.com starting Autodiscover URL redirection to https://exchange.mydomain.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml Autodiscover to https://exchange.mydomain.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml starting Autodiscover to https://exchange.mydomain.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml succeeded (0x00000000) Srv Record lookup for mydomain.com succeeded (0x00000000) I've been told it's a certificate error & then it's not, that I need a different 3rd party certificate & then no I don't - what do I need to get this to work?!?!?

Are they using Outlook Anywhere? If they put your autodiscover URL into a browser do they get the expected response? <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> - <Autodiscover xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/autodiscover/responseschema/2006"> - <Response> - <Error Time="23:28:32.2816569" Id="1143903022"> <ErrorCode>600</ErrorCode> <Message>Invalid Request</Message> <DebugData /> </Error> </Response> </Autodiscover> [ snip ] >I've been told it's a certificate error & then it's not, that I need a >different 3rd party certificate & then no I don't - what do I need to >get this to work?!?!?

When trying to connect to the autodiscover URL, yes, that is the response they get. As far as the test exchange site, the outlook anywhere failed, autodiscover passed, pretty much like the messages included in my original post.

Yes, but the web site usually tells you a bot more about the failure. Is the certificate you're using a SAN certificate? Is the CN of the certificate the same one that your Outlook clients are trying to connect to? Do you fill in both edit boxes in Outlook's "Exchange proxy settings"? Are they both referencing the same server name? --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP

If buying a san certificate would fix my problem, I'll do it, but I don't want to buy one & have the same old problem. Yes, both boxes reference the same server... |
