BTW - I now Hate SBS 2011

Post by Anthro »

Hi kids, long time no post... :lol:

Hope you could assist me with a little issue I am having when adding a new user and mailbox to SBS 2011 Console
For some reason it falls over when creating the mailbox - sofar I have gone through about 100+ threads for some way to fix it.
But to no avail, unfortunately I am getting impatient and might just format the damn thing (but lets not get to that).
Some point to WinRM, some to IIS and PowerShell..

BRB - getting you some logs

**edit*

How new is this 2011 installation?
Did you migrate it from 03 or 08 or is it a fresh install?
Have you created mailboxes before on it or this a first attempt?

I'd say get a support ticket lodged with Microsoft before you reinstall.

Yeah, give them a shout and get a support ticket lodged
SBS and Exchange aren't really my forte - but I have heard of similar things happening when migrations go wrong.
If this is a new install then I'm probably not going to be able to offer any meaningful insights
