No, I'm wondering if it has to do with which SP level Exchange was
originally at (no SP, SP1, SP2), or a problem with IIS.

Hello all,

I'm currently doing some consulting work for a small real
estate
firm, and
as part of that they've asked me to help migrate their email
over to
an
Exchange system and installing a BES server. The server was
configured
about 2 years ago by a different company, and after I had
setup
the
accounts for everyone I was having issues with Public Folders
and the
Offline Address List and thus decided to reinstall. I started
by
uninstalling Exchange and everything seemed to be fine. I
then
started up
the Add/Remove components wizard again and set it up to
reinstall
Exchange, popped in the CD, etc... However, about halfway
through the
install I got an error about the IIS Store not registering
correctly,
and
was prompted with the "Cancel", "Retry". Retrying results in
the
same
error, but after a cancel it proceeds and finishes the
install
with
the
same error message at the end. I attributed this to a fluke
and
uninstalled again, and then reinstalled and was prompted with
the
same
error. I read through a few KB articles at this point and
thought
perhaps
it had to do with IIS , and used this article 325889. To try
and
resolve
the issue. This still did not solve the problem and now when
uninstalling
I get the error

Code:

"Setup failed while
installing
sub-component Exchange ActiveSync with error code 0X80072030
(please
consult
the installation log for detailed description). You may
cancel
the
installation or try the failed step again." I have to cancel,
retry
does
no
good.

and something identical for OMA. I'm at a loss as for what to
do, and
would really prefer to avoid a reinstall as I would have to
setup
numerous
AntiVirus, Backup, and Database utilities. I have error logs
available if
they're needed.

Thank you for your time in advance

I have in fact tried reinstalling using the /DisasterRecovery and
/
Reinstall switches. Disaster Recovery seems to work, but I'm
unable
to
get the Microsoft Exchange Information Store Service to start,
and
Reinstall gives the same error about halfway through. I've tried
uninstalling and reinstalling IIS to no avail, but that did
nothing
to
help the problem.

I can see how the CEICW would setup the OMA and ActiveSync
directories, but do you think that would fix the errors I'm having
with not being able to start the Information Store service?

I believe the SBS CD's were the RTM, but the configuration I was
working from was updated to SP1 for the main SBS components. Unless
the Exchange SP1 update was included, than Exchange was working from a
no SP standpoint. I highly doubt that the ClClientApps folder was
ever moved, as Exchange hadn't even been touched before this moment.-

I tried reinstalling both SP1 for Exchange and SBS, and neither has
fixed the problems I'm having. I also tried runnng the CEICW wizard
after each install, but that failed to complete, just gives me an
error when it comes to configuring the Email settings.- Hide quoted

show up in the Event Viewer when trying to start the Exchange IS
service. IF you're reffering to the Connection Wizard, it just says

"An error occurred while configuring a component.
To continue with the wizard and configure remaining components, click
OK.
To end the wizard without configuring the remaining components, click
Cancel."
