autodiscover.xml failed 0x800c8203
Autodiscover is not working on our Exchange 2010 Server, which has broken OOF. Here is the results of the autodiscover test.

Unless example.com resolves to your Exchange server (unlikely and not recommended) the first errors are to be expected. The only ones I am interested in is the autodiscover.example.com URLs. They are giving a 8004010F error, which is cannot find. That would tend to point to the URL resolving to the wrong place, the wrong web site, something like that. Do you have a valid SSL certificate on the server, with the required URLs in it? Has anything been changed about the server configuration, such as an additional site, IP address etc?

Hi, Does the Autodiscover work for the native Exchange 2010 users not migrated users? Please run test-outlookwebservices |fl command in EMS, then post the results here. Thanks AllenAllen Song

Yes there is a valid certificate, and the only thing on the exchange server is exchange 2010 and forefront protection for exchange. Autodiscover does not work for native users.

Got it! Correcting the dns entry and changing the certificate was the answer. Is there any way to get microsofts' routing and remote access server to redirect requests to an external domain back to an internally hosted site?
October 21st, 2010 11:18am

You don't use RRAS, you use split DNS, so the external URL resolves to an internal IP address. http://www.amset.info/netadmin/split-dns.asp Simon.Simon Butler, Exchange MVP Blog | Exchange Resources
