Hello All,
I recently had to run ADSIedit to manually remove the Exchange 2010 from my AD because I deleted a VM I used for training/testing without thinking.
The 4 things that I deleted were:
1. DC=Domain,DC=Com -> OU=Microsoft Exchange Security Groups
2. DC=Domain,DC=Com -> CN=Microsoft Exchange System Objects
3. CN=Configuration,DC=Domain,DC=Com -> CN=Services -> CN=Microsoft Exchange
4. CN=Configuration,DC=Domain,DC=Com -> CN=Services -> CN=Microsoft Exchange Autodiscover
After deleting those 4 entries I proceeded by forcing replication across my domain. I then installed Server 2008 Enterprise R2 onto a brand new server, completely updated the server via Windows Update, applied the necessary hotfixes and other things required to prep the server for Exchange and joined the server to the domain as a member server.
Once the prep was fully completed I attempted to install Exchange 2010 onto the server and all went well until I got to the mailbox role. This (below) is the error I received and after a lot of google searches I have not been able to come up with a solution.
Summary: 12 item(s). 10 succeeded, 1 failed.
