Re: OAB URL missing from autodiscovery.xml?

I ran filemon on the server


using IE, browsed to the /oab URL
even tried running test-outlookwebservices

no smoking gun showed up in filemon.

Nice thought.

Download filemon.exe and run it on the server.

Make the request to the OAB virtual directory with the IE... if you get an 401, probably filemon.exe will show you in wich file you are getting Access Denied.


Saludos!

Hi,

I think I'll remove the CAS role, remove IIS, rename c\inetpub directory

reinstall IIS, reinstall CAS role, configure certs...etc.

I'll let all know how it came out.

If this urgent, I would call Microsoft PSS.

Hi,

No changes were made in IIS (refer to original posting).

Does anybody have an idea on how to fix this?

I've run into a dead end with my searching resources...

Mike,

I see the 401 Unauthorized error which leads me to beleive this could be a permissions issue. Have any changes been made to IIS?

If there's a CAS server in the same ex2007 org, do they need to be configured exactly the same? When I run my test autoconfiguration, it pulls from the 'correctly' configured CAS server. We have another CAS server live, but not configured.

==============================================================================================

looking at the IIS logs on the CAS server, theres no GET commands for the OAB

=============================================================================================


I cannot choose the text on the log tab. It does give 3 entries:

attempting.....
autodiscover to.................. starting
autodiscover to...... succeeded (0x000000000)

Can you run the Test Email Autoconfiguration on an Outlook Client and select the Log tab and post the results?

I get a 401 error when trying the URL defined by the get-oabvirtualdirectory cmd.

How do I fix this?

Thanks

So, from Exchange Server IE can you go to https://exchangeservername/oab? If you need the exact internal url run from Powershell cmdlet Get-OabVirtualDirectory.

We haven't made any changes to our Exchange 2007 environment.

Outlook 2007 clients cannot download the OAB ( as what's supposed defined in the autodiscovery.xml file) this is determined by the output of the 'test email autoconfiguration' feature in Outlook 2007.

Is there a way to get this back?

Thanks,
Mike Bonvie
