Exchange services wont start

Hi there,

I have built a VPC for one of my clients using Amazon AWS

I have built a 2012 domain controller and added exchange 2013 (i know its not best practice).

I am having some problems with some of the exchange services, they wont properly start.

I am getting 2 errors in Event Viewer:




Event ID 4027 MSExchangeADAccess

Process MSExchangeThrottling.exe (PID=10028). WCF request (Get Servers for bluedogfences.local) to the Microsoft Exchange Active Directory Topology service on server (TopologyClientTcpEndpoint (localhost)) failed. Make sure that the service is running. In addition, make sure that the network ports that are used by Microsoft Exchange Active Directory Topology service are not blocked by a firewall. The WCF call was retried 3 time(s). Error Details
 An error occurred during forest discovery (bluedogfences.local). ----> No Suitable Directory Servers Found in Forest bluedogfences.local Site Default-First-Site-Name.

   at Microsoft.Exchange.Directory.TopologyService.TopologyService.<>c__DisplayClassa.<EndGetServersForRole>b__9()
   at Microsoft.Exchange.Directory.TopologyService.TopologyService.ExecuteServiceCall(Action action)





and this one:


Event ID 2142 MSExchangeADTopology:

Process Microsoft.Exchange.Directory.TopologyService.exe (PID=6532) Forest bluedogfences.local. Topology discovery failed, error details
No Suitable Directory Servers Found in Forest bluedogfences.local Site Default-First-Site-Name..



Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks

have you tried starting the exchange topology service manually?  all the exchange services are dependent on that service

this can happen when running on a domain controller.  exchange services are trying to start but fail because AD hasn't fully started yet so it errors out when trying to query domain information.  it could also happen because it's a GC (which is required role)
