My DC&#8217;s were all previous 2000. The exchange server was running<br \/>\n2003 exchange, on a 2000 server operating system.<\/p>\n<p>I upgraded my system to 2003, all of them without a hitch. I then<br \/>\ninstalled SP2 for Exchange 2003. Everything seemed to work aside from<br \/>\nactivesync. The wierd thing is, it worked half the time, and the other<br \/>\nhalf it didn&#8217;t. I would get a Active Sync HTTP_500 error on my palm,<br \/>\nand a Event ID 3005 ActiveSync &#8220;Verify Exchange is working properly&#8221; on<br \/>\nthe server end.<\/p>\n<p>For the past week I have dedicated most of my time trying to fix this<br \/>\nproblem. I have tried every KB article I could find, and every reg hack<br \/>\nyou could think of.<\/p>\n<p>I finally broke down and spent a 100 bucks to contact Microsoft about<br \/>\nthe issue, I noticed several other people on groups having the same<br \/>\nproblem as me and were not getting the correct solution to fix this.<\/p>\n<p>This is going to kick everyone in the butt when you learn how easy this<br \/>\nis to fix. I figured I would post this to anyone else that might have<br \/>\nthis same problem with ActiveSync.<\/p>\n<p>1. Open up Systems Manager (start, all programs, microsoft exchange,<br \/>\nsystems manager)<br \/>\n2. Look for the &#8220;Servers&#8221; folder, and drill down.<br \/>\n3. If you have a Front-End\/Back-End (FE BE) scenario like me you will<br \/>\nhave to do this fix to both machines.<br \/>\n4. Drill down the server you want, drill down &#8220;Protocols, HTTP,<br \/>\nExchange Virtual Server&#8221;.<br \/>\n5. Once you have drilled down there, right click on the<br \/>\n&#8220;Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync&#8221; and click DELETE.<br \/>\n6. Right click on the &#8220;Exchange Virtual Server&#8221; and click New then<br \/>\nVirtual Directory.<br \/>\n7. Under name: Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync, then under &#8220;Exchange Path&#8221;<br \/>\nclick &#8220;Exchange ActiveSync&#8221;<br \/>\n8. Then OK out of it.<\/p>\n<p>Give it a shot, this worked for me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For the past week or so, I have upgraded my domain to Windows 2003 native.
