Second Client Access Server Role Installation Error
I have a new build out of Exchange 2010 sp1 with CAS, Hub and Mailbox on one physical server (no other roles).
When trying to add another CAS on Hyper-V, the installation failed and I had to start from scratch because I wasn't able to uninstall (had to remove from AD/Schema and reset the account).
Having all of the pre-reqs AFAIK, I get the following error:
Client Access Server Role FAILED
The following error was generated when "$error.Clear();
$CommandAppCmd = join-path $env:SystemRoot System32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe;
$imagePath = [System.IO.Path]::Combine($RoleInstallPath, "ClientAccess\Owa\auth\exppw.dll");
Start-SetupProcess -Name "$CommandAppCmd" -args "install module /name:exppw /image:`"$imagePath`" /add:false" -IgnoreExitCode @(183);
Start-SetupProcess -Name "$CommandAppCmd" -args "add module /name:exppw /app.name:`"Default Web Site/owa`"" -IgnoreExitCode @(183);
" was run: "Process execution failed with exit code 1168.".
The Exchange Server setup operation didn't complete. More details can be found in ExchangeSetup.log located in the <SystemDrive>:\ExchangeSetupLogs folder.
This is supposed to install all the pre-reqs. It looks as if the installeer attempted tp create a Site called SITE_1 but I get an error saying 'The application '/" does not exist.'
I do have a CAS role on another server and was thinking this might be related to not being able to export the default self-signed certificate that is created on the first CAS install.
However, I am not able to find any reference to Application Host.config DLL file: <add name="exppw" image="C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchsrvr\ClientAccess\Owa\auth\exppw.dll" />
Perhaps I am missing something in your suggestion? Can you advise with a bit more detail?

I think the problem is that Exchange 2010 sp1 expects the Default Web Site to be named exactly as it is, and if it is changed you have to do a bare-metal install. I am doing just that since it is a VM and will let you know the result.

Yes, Setup would be expecting the IIS site with the name "Default Web Site" exactly same.
In case if we need to change the site...after installation we have the powershell commands to rehome the exchange folders to the second-site
WebSiteName
Optional
System.String
This parameter specifies the name of the IIS Web site under which the Outlook Web Access virtual directory is created.
I had run the install from a command line:
SETUP.com /Mode:Install /roles:"C" /InstallWindowsComponents
This is supposed to install all the pre-reqs. It looks as if the installeer attempted tp create a Site called SITE_1 but I get an error saying 'The application '/" does not exist.'
