MAPI_E_LOGON error when trying to setup Add2 Exchange on Exchange 2010 DAG

Hi,

I just did an migration of my exchange 2007 to an Exchange 2010 in a childdomain.
Exchange works without any problems.

When I try to install the Add2Exchange on a new Windows 2008R2 (DC) server I can't get Add2exchange to logon to the server.

I keep getting an MAPI_E_LOGON error
.NET 3.5 is installed
CDO is installed
SQL 2005 SP3 x64 is installed
Account already had the permissions in the 2007 Exchange and the mailbox already existed.

What is wrong?

ok i have passed the error.

Needed to login with the UPN of the account instead of the domain\username login
Now I 'm facing the following error.
The account doesn't have any rights on the mailboxes anymore...

Ok solved that problem also

Run

Get-MailboxDatabase -identity “databasename” | Add-ADPermission -user "the username" -AccessRights GenericAll
 

in the exchange powershell

 

Now I need to find the originale licenses I had, I hope that diditbetter will answer quicker than in this forum and the "live" chat (which is just a mailform...)

Hello Filip and Dominick,

Our email monitoring system for the forums was broken by our last upgrade.  While we have now fixed it, questions such as yours have gone unanswered for an unacceptably long time, for which I deeply apologize (I apologize extra deeply because I'm the one who broke it!)

In answer to your question about licenses, Filip, you will need a license transfer in order to get your licenses reissued for the new server.  Please contact us at 800-837-8636 (US) or 001-813-977-5739 (Int'l) for your our licensing staff to process your request.  Be aware there is a nominal processing fee for license transfers.

Dominick, if you are still experiencing issues with logon failures, you can use our preinstaller* program to reapply the full permissions for 2010 to your existing service account.  If you still have your download package of Add2Exchange, look for the preinstaller self-extracting .exe in the directory where you unzipped Add2Exchange.

* Note that the preinstaller works with Exchange 2007 and 2010, but not Exchange 2003

Follow these steps:

  1. Double-click the preinstaller self-extracting .exe to unpack it
  2. Go to the extracted directory
  3. Double-click preinstaller.exe
  4. In the GUI, check "Account Exists"
  5. Make sure the account name is the same as the one you created for Add2Exchange
  6. Click OK
    • You do not need to fill out a Mailbox DB or any of the other fields.

The preinstaller will reapply all of the permissions necessary for the service account.

Unfortunately, there is one gotcha with the reapplication process.  If the public folder permissions were applied correctly the first time you set up Add2Exchange, then the preinstaller will hang on the last step, which is the public folder permissions step.  The good news is that the permissions will have been applied correctly and Add2Exchange will work.  The bad news is that you will need to kill the preinstaller manually by clicking the X button or using Task Manager.

This is unfortunately out of our control as it is the Exchange Management Shell command to apply the permissions which is hanging.  The preinstaller can't do anything about that since EMS itself is hanging.  We are looking for a solution to this problem, but for the moment, you can just wait a reasonable amount of time for the command to finish (say, 2 minutes), and then kill the application if it doesn't come back.

And yes, responding to this post will result in an email to me now that the system has been fixed, but I will be checking the forum manually in any case.  Once again, my sincerest apologies.
