The problem is the operation of AutoDiscover. If that isn't working correctly then many of the Outlook 2007 functions will fail. I would suggest that you read through this blog posting from ATIG to ensure that Autodiscover is working correctly.

The above fix url is actually closed off and not a fix
Anyway I have fixed this on my network by looking at the outlook logs- there were a few reasons
our pcs are on a different domain and this is the main cause because the autodiscover urls do not match- i joined a pc to the domain and it worked fine but this was not an option in the live environment
Firstly yousimply need to be able to resolve an ip address against the server so it doesnt try to access via an external url in our case because this did not match our email domain
example 192.1.100.100 autodiscover.actualmaildom ain.co.uki could not use a dns record as it matched our external domain and prevented certain users accessing our web page.
so the second obvious problems were our Proxy was blocking 2 addresses
autodiscover.actualemaildo main.co.uk ;and als the fqdn of the 2007 server - ie servername.externaldomainn ame.co.uk
now it works with a couple of certificate errors but i guess we can add a couple of self signed ones to get around this.

Please help.
you have to enable outlook logging and this will show you what the autodiscover service is trying to access. i do not beleive there is an option in outlook where you modify autodiscover hence the name.
the log files then live here (vista) or documents and settings for xp/2000
C:\Users\username\Local Settings\Temp\olkdisc.log
Look in there and it will tell you the url it is trying to access and if it is failing or not - let me know what the outcome is and we can take this further.
does your internal domain name match the external url? if not i presume you are on a seperate windows domain to the exchange server as i am.
I expect that the autodiscover is using your email domain and the actual domain is grkms1.gorkana.local. and if they do not match it will do a dns lookup and fail. if this is the case adding the failed domain in the outlook log into your host file with the ip address of the exchange server should fix this.

Sorry mate,
I am from AS 400 background i have little knowledge of exchange.
I can't find C:\Users\username\Local Settings\Temp\olkdisc.log
What i can see is C:\Documents and Settings\brk\Local Settings\Temp but there is no olkdisc.log files.
How can you see where the internal domain and external domain are.
many thanks.

Have you enabled logging in outlook 2007 - tools - options -advanced (restart of outlook required)
to be honest you will have to google to see where that log file exists if you cannot find it.
what is your
windows logon domain of the client pc you are using
windows logon domain of the exchange server
external url if any of your owa server -
maybe wise not to put full details for security reasons

Hi Mate,
Thanks for helping me What i don't understand is why out of office is working with Webmail but not with Outlook 2007. Users can configure thier out of office in webmail but not in Outlook 2007.

Well the Webmail is directly connected to the exchange server and it knows exactly the correct domain to use - ie itself. outlook 2007 uses the autodiscover feature and i am almost 99% sure that yours is querying the wrong domain. please note you would not have this issue with earlier versions of outlook.
ASKER
That is very true this works fine with Outlook 2003.
When i click on Server Configuration----Propertie s
under domain controller server being used by exchange is grkfs1....
and grkdc1 ... ...
Under glocal catalog server i can see
grkfs1....
grkfs1---- is our file server
grkdc1----is one of domain controllers
Our Exchange server is grkms1.
Should i change everythin to grkms1......
Or should i look in IIS and the Autodiscover. I have set this to anonymous.
What and where i should look to change things.
Thanks.

192.2.200.35 autodiscover.webdomain.co. uk
bviously change the bit between autodiscover. and .co.uk to what you require
you do not need to do anything on the server

simply try and add the following to your hosts file with the exchange servers internal address as you can see the outlook is trying to access the server via its external url which in my case and proabably yours is no use
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx autodiscover.gorkana.com
or
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx mail.gorkana.com
change xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx for the internal ip address of the exchange server
Ensure you close Outlook and ensure no outlook.exe processes are open before reopening outlook.
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx autodiscover.gorkana.com
or
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx mail.gorkana.com
change xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx for the internal ip address of the exchange server
Ensure you close Outlook and ensure no outlook.exe processes are open before reopening outlook.

my earlier post stated that this generally happens if you have 2 different windows domains one for the clients and one for the exchange 2007 server.
you have a big problem now - if you ping
https://autodiscover.gorkana.com
and it returns reply from 192.168.0.? whatever then you need to get the certificate error from the ie browser. if not then you need to let me know what connection settings ie has as it is most likely that this is now blocking the next step.
please confirm teh internal ip - this is not a security issue i would just like to confirm we are on the correct track.

Unless you previously broke the web site when using the shell i do not beleive you need to do anything on your server. I am sure the problem currecnty lies with the client and its ie settings. please can you confirm the name you can ping and the resulting ip and then if you ping the fqdn of the exchange server is that the same internal ip?
also please send me you iexplore network settings.

no it has nothing to do with the client, IP address or IE settings.
This is affect about 40 users using outlook 2007.
Does using 2003 are not affected.

are any outlook 2007 users not effected?
2003 will never be effected by this as the autoreply function is the original rubbish one.
unfortunately i can not help you further if you are sure it is server related.
if you have some 2007 machines that work then i am baffled - if you dont i am pretty sure it is client releated as you are having the exact issues i had before i fixed it.

Trust me am not the only one affected by this everyone using outlook 2007 are affect those using outlook 2003 are not affected. So am wondering how can it be client related. It is a server related issue i think there is some problem with our Autodiscover settings in IIS.
Do you know the command to delete and create Autodiscover using exchange shell.
Thanks alot

yes i aggree fully only our outlook 2007 clients had this issue and the problem was not a server issues and not a client issue persay but it is generally because of the domains not matching - do your email domains and windows domains actually match - and are the pcs joined to the same domain as the server - if not it is exactly the problem i had if not you may well try playing with the shell but out of the box it works. if you are on a seperate domain a quick test to check the server is ok is to simply join an outlook 2007 pc to the exchange server domain

our domain is gorkana.com
our outlook is on the same domain.
sever name grkms1 gorkana.local.
I think the autodiscover is corrupt i have looked at view articles and what they are suggesting is to delete and create a new one.
Do you have the cmds to do that?

Redirect check to http://autodiscover.gorkana.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml FAILED (0x80072EE7)
I did an nslookup on this and there is no such record&..
Attempting URL https://mail.gorkana.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml found through SCP--
This is saying it was found via the set-clientaccessserver
there will be some other checks but I will skip them for now....
Question 1: what is the cert he has on the CAS for OL Anywhere?
What is set on the virtuals directories
Get-webservicesvirtualdire ctory | fl identity,internalurl,exter nalurl
What is the default email address of the users? @gorkana.com?
When OL tries to connect to the autodiscover service it will first chec for Autodiscover.gorkana.com this should point to your CAS server which would need a matching cert else you will get a cert mismatch
If that fails and the client is domin joined it will look up the SCP in AD which can be found with the get-clientaccesserver commandlet
Which would appear why the domain joined client worked since this was set
also my blog should be accessible and walk you through all the configuration for this...
