Troubles removing Exchange 2003   
We just recently upgraded to Exchange 2007.  I have two Exchange 2003 
servers.  One is our BES.  I want to remove both Exchange 2003 servers. 
When I try to uninstall Exchange from the non-BES server, I receive the 
following error message:

"Setup failed while installing sub-component Exchange ActiveSync with error 
code 0x80005000 (please consult the installation logs for a detailed 
description). You may cancel the installation or try the failed setup 
again."

I click Cancel then get the following message:

"Setup failed while installing sub-component Microsoft Exchange OMA Browse 
with error code 0x80005000 (please consult the installation logs for a 
detailed description). You may cancel the installation or try the failed 
setup again."

I click Cancel then the uninstall fails with the following error:

"Microsoft Exchange Messaging and Collaboration Services

An invalid ADSI pathname was passed.

Facility: LDAP Provider
ID no: 80005000
Microsoft Exchange Setup"

Anyway, if anyone knows how to get past this, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks in advance,
FS

Re: Troubles removing Exchange 2003   
First off, thanks for responding.

Unfortunately I missed out on that article.  I performed many of the steps 
within it, but missed a few.

I've been able to cleanly uninstall Exchange 2003 from our BES server.

If I was to just rebuild the server without completely uninstalling 
Exchange, do you forsee any lingering issues?

Thanks again,
FS

Re: Troubles removing Exchange 2003   
Yeah you will run into problems; first when you try to rebuild and use
the same name it will error saying that exchange server already
exists. You can choose another servername however if your uninstall
was ungraceful then you will have an orphaned Exchange server which
can still cause issues such as queuing of messages and such.

Re: Troubles removing Exchange 2003   
Thanks for responding.

My plan is not to build up another Exchange server.  I will rebuild it as a 
Terminal Server and name it something else.

My Exchange 2007 server and BES are running fine.  Should I still be 
concerned about the orphaned 2003 Exchange server?  Is there a way to clean 
it from AD?  I didn't see anything in ADSI.

Thanks again,
FS

Re: Troubles removing Exchange 2003   
Were you able to uninstall it cleanly? Your other posts mentioned that
you did.

"I've been able to cleanly uninstall Exchange 2003 from our BES
server."

If so you are fine. If you do not see the server object in adsiedit
then you are good.


1.Click Start, point to Programs, point to Windows 2000 Support Tools,
point to Tools, and then click ADSI Edit.
2. Expand each of the following items:
Configuration Container
CN=Configuration, DC=Domain_Name,DC=com
CN=Services
CN=Microsoft Exchange
CN=Your_Organization_Name
CN=Administrative Groups
CN=Your_Administrative_Group_Name_Or_Exchange5.5_Site_Name
CN=Servers

If you do not see your server here you are fine.

Re: Troubles removing Exchange 2003   
I don't see it listed.  So I guess all's well. =)

It's just weird.  When I go into Add/Remove Programs, Exchange is listed.  I 
try to uninstall, but it fails.

Anyway, I'm not going to worry about it.  I'm just going to blow it away and 
built it up from scratch.

Thanks for your help.
