Hi Huseyin, the error sign on exchadmin is there because IIS starts before exchange's services. It is nothing to worry about, and to correct it just restart your IIS. If OWA is freezing in loading proces, that means your Exchweb subfolder is ok, as it contains images and texts that provide you with OWA interface. The problem is definitely with exchange or public subfolder. Exchadmin is for administering exchange over http, and you probably don't need it, so leave auth for it on Integrated. Step 1: Verify Exchange Virtual Directory Settings 1. Start Exchange System Manager. To do this, click Start, point to Programs, point to Microsoft Exchange, and then click System Manager. 2. Expand Servers, expand ServerName, expand Protocols, expand HTTP, and then expand Exchange Virtual Server. 3. Under Exchange Virtual Server, right-click the Exchange virtual directory, and then click Properties. 4. Click the Access tab, and then click Authentication. 5. Click to select the Basic authentication check box, if it is not already selected. 6. In the Default domain box, type \ (the backslash character), if it is not already present. 7. Click OK, click OK again, and then quit the Exchange System Manager snap-in. Step 2: Verify Default Web Site Properties 1. Expand Default Web Site, right-click the Exchange virtual directory, and then click Properties. 2. On the Virtual Directory tab, verify that the Local Path box points to the M drive, and then make a note of the path. 3. Verify that the Application name box contains the Exchange virtual directory application. NOTE: When a valid application is displayed in this box, the Create button is not displayed. Instead, a Remove button is displayed next to the Application name box. If a Create button is displayed next to the Application name box, click it. Exchange then appears in the Application name box. 4. Click the Directory Security tab, and then click the Edit button under Anonymous access and authentication control. 5. Click to select the Basic authentication (password is sent in clear text) check box, if it is not already selected. 6. Under Authenticated access, click the Edit button. 7. In the Domain Name box, type \ (backslash character) if it is not already displayed. 8. Click OK, click OK, click OK, and then quit the Internet Information Services snap-in. Step 3: Verify Exchange Recipient Policy 1. Start Exchange System Manager. 2. Expand Recipients, and then click Recipient Policies. 3. In the right pane of the Exchange System Manager window, view the Properties pages of the recipient policies to determine if an SMTP address that corresponds to the folder in the M drive (which you noted earlier in step 6 of "Verify Default Web Site Properties") is listed on the E-Mail Addresses (Policy) tab. 4. In the left pane of the Exchange System Manager window, click Recipient Update Services under Recipients. 5. In the right pane, right-click Recipient Update Service (Enterprise Configuration), and then click Rebuild. Click Yes to confirm this operation. 6. Right-click Recipient Update Service (Enterprise Configuration), and then click Update Now. 7. Right-click Recipient Update Service (DomainName.com), and then click Rebuild. Click Yes to confirm this operation. 8. Right-click Recipient Update Service (DomainName.com), and then click Update Now. 9. Quit the Exchange System Manager snap-in. 10. Wait for a few minutes to allow the Rebuild opeartion and the Update operation to complete, and then test Outlook Web Access (OWA) from a client computer. Browse to Program Files\Exchsrvr\Exchweb, open its security tab and verify that Authenticated Users have following permissions: Read and execute List folder contents Read Go in IIS and open your webmail virtual directory and open exchange folder. Check all subfolders for authentication settings. If you use a firewall in the front of the exchange, set auth to basic. Check MS KB: 322185, 296232, 309508, 330220, 280823, 290177, 267570, 267911, 285667.
