Hello,
I am stuck in a weird situation.
Details:
- Server 2012 (all updates) running as a VM Host
- Exchange 2013 running on a VM
- Clients Windows 8.1, Phone 8.0, IMAP, POP3 etc
- Clients: Outlook, Phone and Store Mail App
Issue:
- I decided to install Update 5
- I took a snapshot of the Exchange VM
- I tried to install Update 5, there was no massive error or issue, it merely mentioned that I didn't have some "cluster" something err other installed, and I needed to do that before I could continue. I exited.
- From the moment I exited NONE of my clients can connect to Exchange from Outlook (standard connection).
- What I mean by that is, I have not specifically said use HTTP for this or for that. Just whatever the default is
- However, if I specifically go in and say "use http proxy bla bla" and then I set the value to my mail.xxx.com it actually connects and works..
- Problem #1: doing this is bad.. I don't want this, but the actual real issue is, once I restart Outlook Client it seems to "reset" and then is broken again
So what I attempted to do:
- I tried to reboot the exchange server but no help
- I tried to reboot the VMHost server etc and no help
- I reset the Exchange Server to the VM SnapShot and still no good :-(
The benefit is I can still access through HTTP and my Mail Client and Phone since they use HTTP, however... standard Outlook clients don't work.
I have no idea why this would break merely because I started the Update 5 and it did a prereq check
I looked in the event logs.. but nothing that I can see at all :"-(
Any suggestions please
