OWA Quit working
I had a user call me today and say that they were unable to access the OWA page. Upon connecting to it i also get the following error Server Error in '/owa' Application. Runtime Error Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine. Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off". <!-- Web.Config Configuration File --> <configuration> <system.web> <customErrors mode="Off"/> </system.web> </configuration> Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL. <!-- Web.Config Configuration File --> <configuration> <system.web> <customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/> </system.web> </configuration> Anyone have any idea what could be going on? I just updated to Exchange 2010 SP1 Rollup 3v3 and this didn't help anything.

Today I tried uninstalling ASP.net and re-installing it, and this did nothing. Re-installing the CA role isn't really an option since this is a live production system. I really would appreciate any and all help with this! Thank you.

Hi, I have ever come across the issue twice. I fixed the issue with the following method: Method 1: Restart IIS, then try to log in OWA again, the issue fixed. Method 2: 1. Open the file:web.config. You could find it via the following directory: C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\ClientAccess\OWA\config 2. Follow the error message to modify customErrors mode to RemoteOnly <!-- Web.Config Configuration File --> <configuration> <system.web> <customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/> </system.web> </configuration> 3. Restart IIS 4. Try to log in OWA again, and it will remind you some .dll files are corrupted. 5. According to the reminds, recover the .dll files 6. Restart IIS, OWA works fine. According to my experience, I think the third method will fix the issue, although I have never try. Method 3: Recover the folder: C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\ClientAccess\OWA And restart IIS.

OK, we restored the OWA directory from backup 2 weeks ago. Now we get the login screen, but after you put in your username/password we go to this immediately An unexpected error occurred and your request couldn't be handled.

Hi, >>Request >>Url:http://mail.muskogeeonline.org:80/owa/auth.owa >>User host address:192.168.66.52 >>OWA version:14.1.218.13 Why the URL is “HTTP” not “HTTPS”? Of course, it seems something wrong else. Are you able to open the virtual directory on CAS with this URL: https://localhost/exchange If you can, I think TWHarrington is correct. You had better verify your redirection settings.

If you can’t log in OWA on CAS, I would like to restart IIS and try again. If it doesn’t work , I would like to run the below commands one by one: 1. Remove-OwaVirtualDirectory 2. New-OwaVirtualDirectory 3.

I tried the above commands, the first two worked fine, but when i do the test i get this WARNING: Test user 'extest_a832a2fe29664' isn't accessible, so this cmdlet won't be able to test Client Access server connectivity. Could not find or sign in with user muskogeeonline.org\extest_a832a2fe29664.

Just bumping this to hopefully get some more help.

Please ignore it temporary. After you create OWA virtual, did you configure internal URL for the virtual directory. For example, Internal URL: https://mail.muskogeeonlien.org/owa then try to log in OWA via the following URLs on CAS. https://localhost/owa https://mail.muskogeeonlien.org/owa Are you able to log in OWA?
