Activation Fail on Q10
 

Hi,

I have setup the BES server 10 and did some configurations.

I wonder, how did it connect to our exchange from BES 10 server?

i do try to activate my q10 and its failed due to the server not responding.

Anyone out there can tell me, where to configure this?

Re: Activation Fail on Q10
 

you have to create an email profile:
profile, manage email profiles
create profile
give it a name, and point it to the internal ip address or name of your exchange server which you would use if you setup an active sync device inside your network.

you might have to put SRP number in for server name on phone if you did not allow for BES to be listed in the NOC

I had already created the email profile in BES, active sync should be running on https? correct me if im wrong?

Re: Activation Fail on Q10
 

correct.
In the Server name field, fill in the FQDN of your CAS or mailboxserver, and choose "Use SSL", if Active sync is configured to use SSL.
If you have never used AS before on the Server, Test ist by setting up the email account without the BES on the Q10 using active sync and the same Server address. If this is sucessful, delete the account on the Q10 and try again using the BES.

When using the Q10 + BES dont use the automatic setup assistant, where only your username an password is used, but use the advanced email setup, to make sure, you setup the right type of account.

Btw. passwords containing a "$" sign are not possible!

oh,
I forgot: the besadmin service account needs a mailbox on the exchange server (but, if you followed the installation docs, it will be already present).

I think I am wrong (just read the manual again), also, due to the way BES10 works, a Mailbox for the service account seems not to be needed:
BES5: fetches mail/sends mail/PIM data with the besadmin account on behalf the user
BES10: only proxies requests for Active-sync but the credentials of the user are used
