Exchange 2010 – Can’t Log into OWA?

I find it very frustrating that when you install Exchange 2010 using Server 2008 R2 that it does not install what you need when installing IIS. This took a few hours to find, but here is the fix. Hopefully it will help someone else.

BMcCann,

I hope you are on Win2k8R2 RTM, and you need to have other authentication components also like Basic, Digest etc…

So to be sure that have complete comonent prerequisites, can you run below cmdlet in powershell, reboot the server and check?

Add-WindowsFeature NET-Framework,RSAT-ADDS,Web-Server,Web-Basic-Auth,Web-Windows-Auth,Web-Metabase,Web-Net-Ext,Web-Lgcy-Mgmt-Console,WAS-Process-Model,RSAT-Web-Server,Web-ISAPI-Ext,Web-Digest-Auth,Web-Dyn-Compression,NET-HTTP-Activation,RPC-Over-HTTP-Proxy

Thanks Amit, that was it indeed. Apparently the Exchange 2010 installation doesn’t install all the right features for the IIS role.

I haven’t actually used your cmdlet, but checked out the list of installed features myself. There I saw these ones missing:
- Basic auth
- Digest auth
- Dynamic Content Compression
- IIS6 Management Console

After installing Basic and Digest authentication, I could just log on to OWA.

So thanks again Amit. I hope knowing these features are missing, solves the problems for the rest as well :) Ruud van Strijp – Network Infrastructure Design in the Netherlands. MCSE: 70-270, 70-284, 70-290, 70-291, 70-294, 70-297. Cisco: CCNA, CCDA, CCNP, CCDP.

macosxhints.com – Set Windows Server 2003 to allow Mac connections

Just like this author, this drove me crazy. I previously had no issues connecting to my window server shares once the correct permissions were set. Since I got my Macbook Pro, I have not been able to access anything on my windows shares from my mac. I kept getting error that my log in credentials were not correct, even though I know they are. I never worried about it to much until I decided I wanted to keep and back up all of my photographs on a windows share as a second place to store them besides my mac. It use to work, why didn’t it work now? This article shows the settings to set on your domain to make it work. Working wonderful now.
