Http 500 Internal Server Error Microsoft Exchange
Contents |
2, 20153 0 0 0 Over the past several months, I've seen an increased number of Exchange 2013 cases where certain admin users received a 500 status error when attempting to log in to ECP: microsoft forms based authentication service
The first question I ask when I get these specific cases http 500 internal server error exchange 2013 ecp is "Does the admin account have a mailbox"? In pretty much every case that I can remember, the response is owa 500 error exchange 2013 "No". And immediately, I know exactly where to look! A little history… As you may know, because of the design of Exchange 2013 - the CAS role simply locates your mailbox, then owa error 500 exchange 2010 proxies the request back to your mailbox server - an "anchor mailbox" is used. This anchor mailbox is simply your Exchange GUID, and is used for a number of reasons in Exchange 2013 connectivity. The most obvious, though, are: As mentioned above, so that an Exchange 2013 CAS knows what mailbox server to proxy a request to To prevent the 'Your administrator has made a changeExchange 2013 Ecp 500 Unexpected Error
so you must restart Outlook' message that you get when a mailbox is moved to a different site. You can see evidence of the anchor mailbox when you configure an Outlook profile for an Exchange 2013 mailbox:
Notice the ExchangeGuid is used as the 'Server' in the outlook profile, instead of an actual server name. OK that's great and all, but what does that have to do with thisstatus 500that I'm getting? Well, let's think about it. If the Exchange 2013 CAS needs to know where to proxy a request, but the request is coming from an account that has no mailbox, and thus no ExchangeGuid associated with it, how does Exchange know which mailbox server to proxy? In instances like this, Exchange 2013 uses the ExchangeGuid of system mailboxes to determine where to proxy the requests. In this specific scenario, Exchange uses the system mailbox SystemMailbox{bb558c35-97f1-4cb9-8ff7-d53741dc928c} Note: When pulling up the system mailbox(es) using Get-Mailbox you must specify the -Arbitration parameter or the command will not work. So how do I fix this? Typically, what I've found is that this is caused by either the database with the system mailbseen this issue a couple of times after applying Exchange 2010 SP1 on Client Access servers.

You tried to issue an “IISReset /NoForce” and even rebooted the exchange 2016 ecp error 500 server and still see the symptom.So the issues is typically caused by the “Microsoft Exchange Forms-Based Authentication” service being in a stopped state.

How many times we're looking for the issue in the most complicated places only to find a service failed to start. I feel like an intern right about now... -Ken mgaytan Wed, 24 June 201
