[users@httpd] Reverse Proxy with Exchange 2010

I am in the process of migrating from Exchange 2007 to 2010 and have hit a snag with the reverse proxy settings. My httpd.conf file that had been working with Exchange 2007 is as follows:



-----

LogFormat = "%host %other %logname %time1 %methodurl %code %bytesd %refererquot %uaquot"
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access.log combined



LoadModule  proxy_module         /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_proxy.so
LoadModule  proxy_http_module    /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_proxy_http.so
LoadModule  headers_module       /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_headers.so
LoadModule  expires_module       /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_expires.so
LoadFile    /usr/lib/libxml2.so



ProxyPass   /owa                                http://internal_ip/owa
ProxyPass   /Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync        http://internal_ip/Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync

-----



Running on:

VMware 5.1 guest

Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64

Apache 2.2.16 (Debian)



I change the internal_ip from the 2007 server to the 2010 server and I'm unable to use OWA from a web browser or connect mobile devices. Reverting internal_ip to the 2007 server results in OWA and mobile devices working for mailboxes on the 2007 server, but no connectivity for users with mailboxes on the 2010 server. I have spent a few days now trying to find a solution to this through various channels with no luck. Based on what I have been able to find, it sounds like this can only be done now through Microsoft ForeFront for some reason (something to do with M$ using a non-standard protocol), but I'm hoping that isn't the case. I am fervently hoping someone on this list has had a similar experience and could provide some guidance. Thank you very much.

Dear Adam,

Try first to check your exchange server are accepting connection. Might your server firewall are currently blocking all the connections from proxy.

Regards,

Allen

What do the logs at the proxy contain and look at the logs on the winblows server

I don't believe this is the place to further discuss if you do have a 2010 server config issue but from passed experience, make sure the 2010 server is configured to accept the connections (iis)

If that checks ok, you might look at the logs on your firewall/router to see what the connection is doing. Especially if you had separate LAN's
