Auto-discover broken for ActiveSync and Not RPC/HTTP

Hello

I am attempting to set up a Multi Tenant Exchange hosted environment. I have gotten most everything to work EXCEPT ActiveSynch + AutoDiscover.

AutoDiscover doesn't seem to work with it, yet it works with Outlook Anywhere.

Attached is  my EXCA log in PDF format...


VHSLI = Hosted Services Domain (Where the server is)
VCSLI = The domain which is being hosted.

Yes. It asks me to accept an un-trusted SSL cert, but it does work.

This is a hosted Exchange. I'm using the redirect method to circumvent this need.

I have fixed some things but i have a new issue. Please see attached log.

Ok, It seems it was an issue with the authentication methods allowed.

I am now trying to correct this one last error...

Any help would be appreciated.

as this fails here
The Exchange ActiveSync URL was in an invalid format. It should be https://host/Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync. was https://vhsli-ex-01.vhsli.local/.


please check the internal and external URL for Activesync in EMC

GO to EMC > server config> Client Access> in the mid plane select Activesync and see the info of the same

do IISRESET before testing it
Avatar of VCSLI

ASKER

Disables Windows Auth

Left Basic Enabled

performed iisreset

Ran test again and it still fails.

Right now i have Basic Enabled and Windows Auth disabled. My outlook client wont connect also.
UR outlook is no way connected with Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync Virtual Directory

ASKER

I agree. However i just enabled it and did another IISReset. My outlook client now connects.

I can make another screen cast if you want and show you.

It's been working fine. EXCA still complains about the auth types and that they are un-needed... Not sure how to fix that. It doesn't seem to be an issue though.
its good to hear that Activesync is working :)
