Unable to install Hub Transport Role - 19.Apr.2008 12:23:24 PM

Hello Everyone,

I have come to a snag while installing an exchange 2007 server to migrate my existing 2003 environment.

Here is the environment:

Windows 2003 Domain running Exchange 2003 SP2

Installed a new server with Windows 2003 R2 64bit. Will be running as a domain controller as well as an exchange 2007 server (I'm aware this is not ideal)

The server was prepped with the instructions on this website from the wonderful articles written.

I was in the middle of the exchange 2007 install and this error came up:

quote:

[ERROR] Failed to register the content filter.

[4/19/2008 12:10:21 PM] [1] Finished executing component tasks.
[4/19/2008 12:10:21 PM] [1] Ending processing.

I have tried everything to look up what this error could be and the error keeps mentioning that it is related to a 32 bit problem, although I don't see how this is possible as the server is running 64bit windows, the ISO i downloaded is 64bit (direct from Microsoft).

I have tried re-downloading the image, burning the image rather then running it with magic disc, copying the files directly on to the server and running the install from there.

I am completely out of ideas and any help would be greatly appreciated.

The server hardware specs are as follows:

HP ProLiant ML350 G5
Dual Xeon E5420 processors (8 cores total)
5GB RAM

Thanks for any help!

Are you 100% sure you've downloaded the 64 bit version of Exchange ?
