Question

For Office 365 Mailboxes, I get the following error:

Comments

Hello,

Do we understand correctly that the error appears when you click Mobile Device details on the Mailbox Features tab of a user mailbox Exchange properties in Adaxes Administration Console?

Could you, please, specify what version of Adaxes you are currently using? To check that:

1. Launch Adaxes Administration Console.
2. In the Console Tree, right-click your service.
3. In the context menu, click Properties.
   
4. Adaxes version will be displayed on the General tab.
   

Also, for troubleshooting purposes, please, enable tracing of requests sent to Exchange servers, reproduce the issue and send us (support[at]adaxes.com) the log file. For information on how to enable the tracing, have a look at the following help article: https://www.adaxes.com/help/?HowDoI.Per ... uests.html.

Yes, this is on the mailbox features tab as you suggest. The Adaxes version is 3.11.16825.0. I enabled tracing and there are no error messages in the trace, the only thing I see is the following. Before I turned on tracing, I was able to get it to work one time with a particular user, but I can't get it to work at all now after trying with a dozen or so users.

Hello,

Thank you for the provided details. For troubleshooting purposes, please, do the following:

1. Save the below script with the PS1 extension, e.g. MyScript.PS1.

    param(
        [Parameter(Mandatory=$true,Position=1)]
        [String]$userIdentity,
        [Parameter(Mandatory=$true,Position=2)]
        [String]$filePath
    )
   
    try
    {
        $session = New-PSSession -ConfigurationName Microsoft.Exchange -ConnectionUri "https://outlook.office365.com/powershell-liveid/" -Credential (Get-Credential) -Authentication Basic -AllowRedirection
        Import-PSSession $session -AllowClobber -DisableNameChecking -CommandName "Get-MobileDeviceStatistics"
   
        $devices = Get-MobileDeviceStatistics -Mailbox $userIdentity
        foreach ($device in $devices)
        {
            $device | select -Property * | Out-File $filePath -Append
        }
    }
    finally
    {
        if ($session) { Remove-PSSession $session }
    }
   

2. Copy the script to the server where Adaxes is installed.

3. Launch WIndows PowerShell.

4. Navigate to the folder where you saved the script. For example, if you saved it to C:\Downloads, type
   cd C:\Downloads

5. Run the script by executing the following command. When prompted, specify the credentials that were used to register your Office 365 tenant in Adaxes.

    .\MyScript.ps1 "<Email address>" "<file path>"

   where

   • <Email address> - Specifies the Primary SMTP address of the user.
   • <file path> - Specifies the path to the output file that will be created (e.g. C:\logs\output.txt)

6. Send us (support[at]adaxes.com) the output file.

Also, please, send us (support[at]adaxes.com) a copy of Adaxes Event Log. For information on how to view the log, have a look at the following help article: http://www.adaxes.com/help/?ServiceAdmi ... ntLog.html.

Thank you, I will send the requested output. Looking at the event logs, it appears this is the error:

Answer 1

Hello,

Thank you for the provided logs. We confirm this is an issue in Adaxes. It occurs if there is a device that has no policy applied. We will fix it in the next release.

If the fix is critical, we can provide you with a custom build of Adaxes that will include a fix for the issue.
