HI Gulab, thanks for your help, where do I need to run the Setup.com /PrepareSchema & PreapreAd, I believe it should be run from my Windows Server 2008 x86. Will it allow to run in 32 bit (it is my DC)? but I will install the exchange 2007 sp2 in Windows Server 2008 x64 member server.

Help me anybody please, I am trying to install Exchange 2007 SP1 in a Server 2008 x64 member server but my domain controller/AD is Server 2008 x86. When I run the Exchange 2007SP1 - setup in Server 2008 x64 it says no Active Directory found. Hope I need to the schema, forest and domain extensions in DC which is 32BIT version. Therefore, I need to download Exchange 2007 32BIT version to do from Server 2008 32BIT domain controller. Am I correct? Karan

Hi Simon, I could not download the EXCHANGE 2007 SP2 or SP3. I can download the SP2 or SP3 only to do the upgradation later. I have now Exchange 2007_SP1_x64.iso file and trying to install in the server 2008 x64 which is already added to domain and I logged into the server using domain Administrator a/c. I suspected the firewall which is blocking to connect the AD directory services. Still - no luck for me and see the error ; [27/04/2011 7:48:28 AM] [0] Starting Microsoft Exchange 2007 Setup [27/04/2011 7:48:28 AM] [0] ********************************************** [27/04/2011 7:48:28 AM] [0] Operating System version: Microsoft Windows NT 6.0.6001 Service Pack 1.

Hi everybody, First, I added to domain and logged into the administrator a/c. I confirmed that my primary DNS is domain controller DNS. I did the nslookup and confirmed that it is doing all resolution from AD integrated DNS server which is running on my domain controller. I enabled all firewall as per the request of Simon. Then I downloaded Exchange Server 2007 SP3 x64 and installed, but still I get the same error , I did ServerManagerCmd -i RSAT-ADDS, and I can see the AD Users & Computers, AD Site & Services, AD domain & Trust consoles. It's all working fine. In addition to that I installed all pre-requests: IIS7, PowerShell, MS Installer 3.5, etc. But when I try to install, I got the following ERROR log: [28/04/2011 9:30:11 PM] [0] ********************************************** [28/04/2011 9:30:11 PM] [0] Starting Microsoft Exchange 2007 Setup [28/04/2011 9:30:11 PM] [0] ********************************************** [28/04/2011 9:30:11 PM] [0] Operating System version: Microsoft Windows NT 6.0.6001 Service Pack 1.

It is all in the same site. I fixed all the issues - one time ago some body has installed the exchange for the organization and shutdown the Exchange Server without properly removing the server. It has caused the problem to install in second server. I have fixed all, thanks for your help everybody.
