Error On Migrating A Mailbox To Exchange 2010
After installing Microsoft Exchange 2010 I wanted to move my mailbox from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2010. Using the wizard in Exchange Console I got this error
Error:
Active Directory operation failed on *DomainController*. This error is not retriable. Additional information: Insufficient access rights to perform the operation.
Active directory response: 00002098: SecErr: DSID-03150E8A, problem 4003 (INSUFF_ACCESS_RIGHTS), data 0The user has insufficient access rights.
Exchange Management Shell command attempted:
’*OUStructure*’ | New-MoveRequest -TargetDatabase ‘Mailbox Database nnnnnnnnnn′ -BadItemLimit ‘0′
- I found that this error can be fixed by editing the Advanced Security Settings for the user on the AD.
- Open “Active Directory Users and Computers”
- Click “View > Advanced Features”
- Select the users mailbox properties
- Navigate to “Security Tab > Adanced”
- Select the checkbox “Include inheritable permissions from this object’s parent”
- Apply changes
Afterwards the move should go swimmingly, however you may need to remove your move request a try again.
Linux Hosted
Over the weekend with some holiday time I’ve been back to my home town for a little break from city life. I went back Thursday night and came back to Birmingham very late monday night/early Tuesday. I was late as I had randomly ended up in Leicester with one of my good friends and we had gone to see Alice in Wonderland, which was pretty good.
It had been quite an eventful but great weekend, saw the family and friends, witnessed a car crash in which the offending party hopped up and drove off and moved my website to my linux host. I’m trying to make room for another server so I’m consolidating various services so I can free up an IP address but a new virtual machine running exchange2010.
The move didn’t go as smoothly as I had planned, the application I used to create a dump of the DB has filled it with random text doubling the file size and caused lots of issues when I went to load it up. I instead reverted back to using MySQLDump on the Windows command line console.
Didn’t have many issues with the new setup, Apache 2.0 didn’t like the previous .htaccess and reported an “Internal Error Page” was quite annoying as I didn’t know what was going on until I checked the logs. After loading up the proper .htaccess file I just needed to enable mod_rewrite using the following command.
a2enmode rewrite
I’m pretty happy everything is working now, one thing that did annoy me running WordPress in ISS 6.0 is that the WordPress iPhone apps did not work but now that do as I’m back on linux so look out for a few more picture uploads.
Just one more site to move and I should be able to setup Exchange2010.
New Server
Over the past couple of days you may have notice the blog and various other sites I manage have been down over the weekend. This was mainly due to some downtime on the DNS servers, the primary, located in Newark was turned off as some building work was going on close to the server and I didn’t want tiny rocks getting in though the fans but also because I was moving the DNS server to a new host.
I thought I might as well get some experience on various systems in some of my spare time while on my placement year so I got myself a server. It’s a HP ML115 and it is now hosted in a datacentre just outside of Birmingham. I’ve beefed up the standard spec of it with some large hard drives and quite a lot of ram! It’s currently hosting 3 servers. One of which is a Windows server which is now hosting this blog. I’ve come across a few errors since as wordpress doesn’t really support IIS but I think I’ve finally cracked it. I’ve also noticed a huge decrease in page load time; it was starting to get annoying on the old host.
My next challenge is to install Exchange server. I’m struck between trying out Exchange 2010 or properly configuring Exchange 2007 but before this I need to finish configuring Active Directory.
