Question

Wireless Exchange Activesync not working with Sprint Samsung I830

Asked by: eazstream

I purchased a new Sprint Samsung I830 Windows Mobile 5.0 device and have had it
for a couple of weeks. I have been trying to get the over-the-air Exchange
Activesync to work but have been unsuccessful. I have configured Activesync
on the device to point to the correct server and set to not required to use SSL.

When I try to sync, I get the following:
Result: Activesync encountered a problem on the server
Support Code: 0x85010001

If I use the browser on my I830 and point to the same server address that I
configured for ActiveSync, I can log in and retrieve my mail through the
browser so I know that over-the-air public access to the exchange server is
working through my device.


Thanks,
Eddie

Check whether anonymous authentication or integrated authentication is selected on Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync virtual folder in IIS.

The proper auth setting should be just Basic authentication.

Thanks,
Vasanth.

While you are not set to use SSL on the device, do you have an SSL certificate on the server?

Sembee: to answer your question no SSL certificate on server.

we do have a few blackberry that uses their active sync to receive their email, not via Bes Server that works without any issues. i set them up usingthe same information that Activesync requires, such as OMA setting
thanks

Hypercat,
I actually have done that before posting this request, but now all of a sudden when i try to sync it ask me for my password.. so it seems that its trying to sync with exchange server, but i enter my password and it keeps on asking me to re-type my password. i know i have typed my password correct.
please help

 

by: hypercatPosted on 2007-05-07 at 07:13:26ID: 19042736

Have you changed your password recently?  Make sure you go back through the setup steps, check the server name and save the password that way, instead of just trying to enter the password when it tries to synch.  If that doesn't work, try connecting it via the cable and changing the password that way.  You could also try doing a soft reset - I'm not sure how to do this on your particular device, but at least you could try turning it off completely and then back on again. If none of those works, you may have to wipe it and start from scratch.

havent changed my password in two months and have another month before im force to change it.
i have wiped it cleaned and still doesnt work, will try to install active sync locally and try it that way.

Are you sure wireless sync is enabled on your server?  Not necessarily enabled just because OWA is.  Also might try to re-install activesync on the device.

 

by: vasanthgnbPosted on 2007-05-09 at 09:39:54ID: 19058384

Sounds like you are as frustrated as I was setting up mine!  Are you checking the Enabled status on Exchange System Manager or on the User Account in Active Directory?  You'll need Outlok Mobie Access, User Initiated Syncronization and Up-to-date Notifications (if you want direct push) all enabled on the user account in AD.  You'll also need to enable them in System Manager under Mobile Services.  Maybe you'll need to check the Enable unsupported devices setting, although a Windows Mobile 5.0 device should be supported.  Do you have any Device Security Settings enabled in System Manager > Mobile Services?

 

by: vasanthgnbPosted on 2007-05-10 at 02:08:38ID: 19063545

Test this. Stop the default web site on your Exchange server IIS.

Try to sync. See the error message that you get. If you get the same error message, then this is not an issue with Exchange probably. You will have to check the firewall settings.

This error will pop-up if there is a problem with the authentication settings.

As per your last post, it seems that the auth settings are fine. Still I would recommend checking them again.

Check the IIS logs on the server and see if you get the requests for Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync folder there.

You will not get this error just by installing Windows updates.

Thanks,
Vasanth.

sorry for the last post, this is what i wanted to say.

Vasanthgnb,
        i did as you said, stop default web site and now i get
result:
The server is busy.
support code 0x85010017

start it back up and again getting asked to re-enter user name password and domian, and all info that im entering works, i do know my username password and domian. tested it using oma and owa site and will log in with out any issues
thanks

 

by: willieksuPosted on 2007-05-14 at 14:37:56ID: 19088699

Eazstream,

Have you tried accessing OMA and OWA from outside your network?  If that too fails from external then you may be able to pinpoint this better.

 

by: eazstreamPosted on 2007-05-15 at 10:32:30ID: 19094595

yes i have tried oma and owa from outside my network, with the credentials that i enter on my cell phone and it works without any issues. do you think it can be the physical phone, dontkno whow but that what the Sprint tech suggested

 

by: SembeePosted on 2007-05-15 at 13:57:10ID: 19096259

Try the emulator. Free download from Microsoft. If it works on the emulator then it is the phone.

Simon.

 

by: willieksuPosted on 2007-05-15 at 14:08:25ID: 19096349

I would say it surely sounds like a phone issue.  I have seen it happen with Palm (Treo) and a Motorlla Q running Windows Mobile 5.0, but an outdated OS build.  What is the build of your OS on the phone?

 

by: eazstreamPosted on 2007-05-17 at 07:15:35ID: 19108310

Sembee,
i tried the emulator and still get the same message--
please correct your exchange server password.

i know im typing in my correct password..dont know whats going on.
please help
thanks guys/gals

 

by: eazstreamPosted on 2007-05-17 at 07:23:51ID: 19108395

UPDATE------
Changed my password to one that will be easy to type, logged in to my pc without any issue, remote in to my home machine and tried to get into oma and owa with new password and went in smooth, now that i tried to sync my phone and emulator with new password and nada....just like before, it tries to sync but then it keeps on asking to re-enter passwords

 

by: willieksuPosted on 2007-05-17 at 08:40:48ID: 19109092

eazstream,

Is there any chance at all your service from Sprint has changed.  Unlikely but could just be a horrible coincidence that this happened after your updates.  Also, what updates did you apply when this started?

 

by: vasanthgnbPosted on 2007-05-17 at 21:28:03ID: 19113557

I am pretty sure that you are hitting Integrated Authenticaton some where......

 

by: eazstreamPosted on 2007-05-18 at 11:35:56ID: 19117586

service with Sprintis fine...it has to be an authentication issue but thats the problem where.

 

by: vasanthgnbPosted on 2007-05-18 at 11:44:16ID: 19117638

What is in front of ur Exchange server????

U have mentioned before that if u stop the default web site and sync u get a different error.

Ideally if u stop the web site u should get server not reachable...but u r getting server too busy.....

Again........did the auth settings on your front-end server???

 

by: eazstreamPosted on 2007-05-21 at 09:15:35ID: 19127894

i dont have a front end or back end server, its a single exchange server,. hope that helps

 

by: willieksuPosted on 2007-05-21 at 09:21:51ID: 19127937

Have you tried to delete the connection between your phone and exchange server and then re-create the connection?  This resolved a slightly different issue with my Cingular Pocket PC running Windows Mobile 5.0.  Like your issue, my connection just quit working without any logical reason.  Try to recreate the connection and let us know how it goes.

 

by: eazstreamPosted on 2007-05-21 at 09:27:13ID: 19127982

i have done that numerous times, with my phone as well as the emulator that i downloaded... really wierd.  i keep on getting to re-enter my password. Like vasanthgnb said it can be an authentication issue but where in the server can i find these settings
thanks again

 

by: willieksuPosted on 2007-05-21 at 09:53:08ID: 19128146

Where all are you checking the auth settings at?

 

by: eazstreamPosted on 2007-05-29 at 12:48:37ID: 19174989

from system manager, as requested from other post. i cant believe i cant find a solution for this issue.,

 

by: willieksuPosted on 2007-05-29 at 12:51:23ID: 19175010

Are you also checking them in IIS?

 

by: eazstreamPosted on 2007-05-29 at 12:55:36ID: 19175039

i really dont recall, can you pleae let me know where exactly in IIS. ill double check

 

by: willieksuPosted on 2007-05-29 at 13:22:02ID: 19175226

You'll want to do this on your Front End server if you're in a FE/BE environment.  (Make sure you do this on all Front End servers)

Start > Administrative Tools > Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager
Drill down to [ServerName] > Web Sites > Default Web Site > Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync
Right click and select Properties
Directory Sercurity tab
Select Edit under Authentication and access control
Verify it is set to Basic Authentication

Back on Directory Security tab
Slect Edit under IP address adn domain name restrictions
Verify these settings aren't preventing the connection from your Sprint device

Back on Directory Security tab
Select Edit under Secure Communications
Verify the require SSL settings match what you are using on your Sprint Device

 

by: eazstreamPosted on 2007-05-29 at 13:27:10ID: 19175266

thanks thats what i had previously as well in OMA.
still no luck

 

by: willieksuPosted on 2007-05-29 at 13:33:03ID: 19175307

So your settings in Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync are exactly the same as in OMA?  And you are able to log in to OMA from your phone without error?

 

by: eazstreamPosted on 2007-05-29 at 13:34:52ID: 19175320

both setting are the same, and yes im able to log into oma and owa from my phone with the credentials that i use for activesync

 

by: willieksuPosted on 2007-05-29 at 14:00:43ID: 19175482

Any firewall software running on or in front of the exchange front end server?  I'm assuming you did not update your hardware firewall settings, but possible an update to the software or OS running on or in front of your Exchange front end that might be blocking that traffic?

 

by: eazstreamPosted on 2007-05-29 at 14:04:40ID: 19175510

no firewall software installed/configured basic updates for windows server 2003 where installed.

 

by: willieksuPosted on 2007-05-29 at 14:13:24ID: 19175567

You might try checking the permissions (right click on the OMA and Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync in IIS)  Select Pemissions instead of Properties.  Verify these also match.

Anything useful in the IIS logs?  C:\WINDOWS\system32\Logfiles

 

by: eazstreamPosted on 2007-05-29 at 14:26:34ID: 19175630

nothing in logfiles, i have full permission on both folders.

 

by: willieksuPosted on 2007-05-29 at 14:27:55ID: 19175636

Can you try to disable the Device Security options?  That is the only config I have different than you so far (I have nothing enabled on that window)  Maybe the patching affected the way that worked.  Only a hunch.

 

by: willieksuPosted on 2007-06-04 at 14:23:02ID: 19212234

Have you checked that all services are still running correctly on your Exchange Servers?

by: willieksuPosted on 2007-06-05 at 06:35:30ID: 19216832

Is there anyway you can post or send screenshots of each of the IIS>Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync properties pages?  There must be something that is not quite right.  That way I can compare to my settings and see what issues could come into play.

 

by: eazstreamPosted on 2007-06-05 at 06:44:28ID: 19216892

can you please tell me where exactly do you want screen shots, ill upload to a site and send you link
thanks

 

by: willieksuPosted on 2007-06-05 at 08:16:18ID: 19217689

Start > Administrative Tools > Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager
Drill down to [ServerName] > Web Sites > Default Web Site > Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync
Right click and select Properties

Just do a screenshot of each window / tab / etc...  That way we can do a complete compare of the settings you have vs the settings that are working on mine.

 

by: willieksuPosted on 2007-06-05 at 14:33:13ID: 19221004

The only differene I see is that I have Require SSL enabled.  You have more tabs than I do though, so if one of those are playing into the mix I wouldn't be able to compare to mine.  (i.e. ASP tab)

Can you take a screen shot of the Exchange Features tab of your user account properties?  Shouldn't contain any conf. info, but feel free to blank out whatever you don't want seen.

 

by: eazstreamPosted on 2007-06-06 at 11:37:39ID: 19227511

Not fun at all... always a nerve testing situation....

im going to try some solutions that everyone suggested here one last time, and hopefully the exchange God hear my plea and makes this work before my CEO gets his Treo

If you find a solution that works, please let me know.  In the mean time I'll try to find some more tips.

By the way, have you tried to wipe your phone and re-initialize the connection to Exchange?

 

by: eazstreamPosted on 2007-06-12 at 06:48:39ID: 19266020

will do, yes done all that. lol

Are you running multiple e-mail domains on your Exchange server by anychance?  Or have you changed domain names?

 

by: eazstreamPosted on 2007-06-13 at 05:41:55ID: 19273930

only one domain, one exchange server, one flavor of everything...lol
its a small company with about 50 users, so hopefully this new image and exchange install shouldnt be that long.
i hope

I figured it was only one domain, but I ran across a different problem on my system last night that as related to our multiple domains (10+) running on the same Exchange.  Some users were not granted access to certain things.

 

by: eazstreamPosted on 2007-06-13 at 06:30:29ID: 19274355

how many users at your company? what is happening

 

by: willieksuPosted on 2007-06-13 at 06:35:06ID: 19274403

Approx 700 users.  Was an OWA issue, have since resolved.  The user did not have an account for the primary domain... not sure why or how it got removed.

eazstream, how did the rebuild go?  Are you able to sync now?

 

by: eazstreamPosted on 2007-06-26 at 06:19:07ID: 19363327

hey willie,
sorry i was out for a few days, but i did manage to rebuild the system and get new phones. All works now perfect, still wish i knew what caused this issue. was working on this for a while too. to bad i had to give up and re-image the server.
thanks

 

by: willieksuPosted on 2007-06-26 at 06:21:52ID: 19363353

new phones too, I wonder if it was the rebuild or the phone, or a combo of both...  Glad all is well.

 

by: eazstreamPosted on 2007-06-26 at 06:22:49ID: 19363362

yea didnt want to take any chances. so since we had insurance on them Sprint changed them for new ones

We have the same problem here, the device is a Samsung IP830W. What we look like:

Exchange 2003 SP2 fully patched on top of Windows 2003 SP1
No front-end server
Outlook Mobile Access enabled, TWO DEVICES WORK OVER ACTIVESYNC:
- Treo 650 Palm O/S
- Treo 700 W
Outlook Web Access enabled and working

Custom built SSL cert is being used <<---Could this be the problem?

The log files (W3SVC1) show the device hitting the server.

Jeff, you might want to open a new question.

 

by: jefferybushPosted on 2007-07-10 at 15:11:56ID: 19458275

Willie-

I just thought it might be the same problem, and the fact that it was the same phone might nail this down to a device-specific issue and assist with problem determination for Eddy's post. I can open a new one one though.

Jeff

Eddie-

What are you using for the SMTP domain under Echange System Manager>Global Services>Mobile Services? We are using "@sprintpcs.com" without quotes. Can anyone confirm this is the correct carrier setting?

 

by: willieksuPosted on 2007-07-12 at 07:13:44ID: 19471874

Sorry Jeff, thi sthread just hadn't been updated for a while so I thought you might get better response on a fresh one.  

As far as the mobile carrier, i have not entries on mine and it has been functioning with both Sprint and Cingular (AT&T)

To be honest, I have never even looked at that setting before.  You might try wiping it out and see if it works. (if you do create another question let me know and I'll track that one.  I've put a lot of fight into getting my sync working so I may be able to prevent a few headaches for you)

Thanks, Willie. I realized there hadn't been much activity after I posted last. I put about a good week into getting mine worked out as well. I have it running at two companies and have used multiple devices, this particular phone is the only one I've had trouble with. The user may be giving it up for another device because of other issues so I may not have to pursue it.

I do wish that people would close their posts if they are finished with them, and assign points accordingly. I guess they just forget sometimes.
