Hello, Windows exchange is fairly new to me, however i need to install it or a client and his business... Now when I install it gave me a few errors i was stupid enough not to write down, however the program runs. But now when I want to go to exchange management console i get the following errors: he following warning(s) were reported while loading topology information: Get-OWAVirtualDirectory Completed Warning: The virtual directory "Exchange (Default Web Site)" is not configured correctly. This server has the Mailbox server role installed, so HTTP compression must be disabled. You can use the IIS Manager to disable compression. Warning: The virtual directory "Public (Default Web Site)" is not configured correctly. This server has the Mailbox server role installed, so HTTP compression must be disabled. You can use the IIS Manager to disable compression. Warning: The virtual directory "Exchweb (Default Web Site)" is not configured correctly. This server has the Mailbox server role installed, so HTTP compression must be disabled. You can use the IIS Manager to disable compression. They are using Windows server 2008 RS with SP1. I know how to make my way around this system a little... However both programs mentioned above are not my area of expertise. Also, we are on an island called Curacao and sadly enough I'm the best they got without paying a few thousand dollars... Any help would be greatly appreciated! If i need to give out any more information or details please let me know! You can also contact me via Skype or MSN if you feel man enough to give me some live support... Wich i will greatly appreciate! Skype: EvulDeeds MSN: Whatthebleeb@live.nl Kind regards, Remy van Tour

With the error logs saying that it needs HTTP compression turned off you need to go into IIS manager and expand out until you can select the default web site on the left hand pane. In the middle pane select compression and turn it off you might need to execute iisreset /noforce from the command prompt after this change.Matt Cline - MCSE+M, MCITP: EA | EMA (2007, 2010) | Lync 2010 Blog: exchangeadventures.com

Do disable compression from IIS features from given step Server Manger >Features > remove features. After disabling this problem has been resolved. You need to click on retry or reinstall. Committed for better support..... Imu System Support Engineer|MCT, MCTIP,MCTS,MCP,MCSA, MCSE

ok. just ensure that the do not have any other application on this server that require the IIS compression feature. you may want to install exchagne on a diferent box Dhruv

Hi, Open the IIS Manager, click the default website, than sub sellect the "Exchange" website in the left pane. In the middle pane (under IIS), double click compresion and desellect "Enable Static Content Compression". Hope it helps.Rowen TechNet Community Support
