Re: Single user unable to access OWA



Thanks Andy. Sometimes a reboot fixes things that should not be broken.

Lary,

Not sure if there was a fix. Robert helped rule out a lot of options and
I
tried to troubleshoot further, but ultimately the problem seems to have
been
resolved either by using the internal net to logon or due an SBS reboot
yesterday (the MS December updates were applied). Not sure if it is
relevant
but I got an application error ID 1001 "fault bucket" following the reboot
and an Application Error 1000 "faulting appliation RPCServ.exe module
ntdll.dll" on reboot. Have to add that I have had these before after MS
update reboots. Last night the user was able to access OWA via the
https://fqdn/exchange route just as in the past.

Sorry not to be more specific.

Robert,

User was able to access OWA remotely last night, via
https://fqdn/exchange.
So problem is solved. Thanks for your assistance with the
troubleshooting.

Hi Andy,

Thanks for your reply.

Do the user logon OWA from external with the same machine as in LAN?
If
the
machines are different, please ensure you clear password cache on this
computer too.

You can also make a clean boot to make sure the problem is not caused
third
party software:

1. Click Start->Run...->type msconfig and press Enter.
2. Click Services tab and select Hide All Microsoft Services and
Disable
All third party Services.
3. Click Startup tab and Disable All startup items.
4. Click OK and choose Restart.
5. After reboot, check whether the problem still occurs.
6. If there are no more problems, please use the above steps to enable
services and startup items one by one in order to figure out the root
cause
of this issue.

Hope this helps.

I am looking forward to hear from you.

If you need further assistance, please don't hesitate to let me know.

Best regards,

Robert Li(MSFT)
