The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

autodiscovery problems

Asked by CarlGilbert in TCL Scripting Language, Exchange Email Server, Secure Socket Layer (SSL) & HTTPS

Tags: , ,

Hi, we have an exchange 2007 server but all clients use outlook2003.
I have been testing outlook2007 and i kept getting a password prompt when i started up. no password would work but if you cancelled it you would get in fine and just get a sync error about the oab. researching that problem led me to the autodiscovery problem so ill start with that
when i try to autodiscover i just keep getting a password prompt and nothing seems to work.
in powershell i have run the command "test-outlookwebservices"


Information About to test AutoDiscover with the e-mail address Administrator@domain.co.uk.
Information Testing server mailserver.domain.CO.UK with the published name https://mailserver.domain.co.uk/EWS/Exchange.asmx & .

im not sure where the rcp/http stuff has come from it must of been my fiddling.
when using the email autoconfig test on outlook2007 it just fails

in IIS
i have autodiscover under Default Website with integrated windows aut and basic auth ticked and defailt domain set to domain.co.uk
the certificate has no expired and does not show any errors issued by and to: mailserver.brintons.co.uk

when i select the autodiscover item under default website and click browse i get a password prompt for the mailserver's ip address
nothing i put in her works and i think this is probably the same password prompt thats popping up all the time
this goes away when i set the MSExchangeAutoDiscoverAppPool identity to "local system"
and i get a
  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <Autodiscover xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/autodiscover/responseschema/2006">
- <Response>
- <Error Time="18:17:44.7625107" Id="1479386833">
  <ErrorCode>600</ErrorCode>
  <Message>Invalid Request</Message>
  <DebugData />
  </Error>
  </Response>
  </Autodiscover>
maybe someone could run me through from scratch as i have messed around way to much trying to get this to work.
the other thing i did was to a set-outlookprovider for exch expr and web to the name of the mailserver as they were blank

Thanks
