Install Help

[intel233]

I have tried about 5 times to get Exchange 2010 installed in my test environment. I have 1 PC. It is running Win 2k8 R2 x64.
I then have VMware and run another Win2k8 R2 x64 and this is a member server. From the member server I do all the prerequisites from power shell: I have tried running this as the administrator account of the local member server and logging in as the admin of the domain.
Import-Module ServerManager
Add-WindowsFeature NET-Framework,RSAT-ADDS,Web-Server,Web-Basic-Auth,Web-Windows-Auth,Web-Metabase,Web-Net-Ext,Web-Lgcy-Mgmt-Console,WAS-Process-Model,RSAT-Web-Server,Web-ISAPI-Ext,Web-Digest-Auth,Web-Dyn-Compression,NET-HTTP-Activation,RPC-Over-HTTP-Proxy -Restart
Set-Service NetTcpPortSharing -StartupType Automatic

Then on Main OS (not guest member server) I run :
setup /prepareAD /organizationName:TESTING
then setup /pad
Then I install exchange.
Either it installs and then when I try to open the EMC I get an error :
[exchange2010.XXX.com] Processing data from remote server failed with the following error message. The user XXX\Administrator isn't assigned to any management roles.

or i have tried not running the setup with the switches and having the install do it but it just gets stuck on the first step (the time moves but after 2hrs I gave up).

Any help is appreciated.

Like I said I am logged in as domain/administrator (I tried is server/administrator as well).
On the member server I do the prerequisites and then on the DC I run the setup /prepareAD and setup /pad

I have no idea what I am doing wrong.

 

[intel233]

on the DC the administrator account (the user NOT group) is a member of:
Administrators
Domain Admin
Domain Users
Enterprise Admin
Group Policy
Schema Admin

Obviously cant be in the 2 exchange related groups yet.

On the member server NOTHING is installed. Its just Windows Server 2k8 R2 and I just join it to the domain. I do not add any roles (like ADDS) or features.

Make a new domain account and use that to login with. Make sure the account is a member of enterprise admins, domain admins and schema admins.

Ok I reinstalled from scratch and now I get:
Connecting to remote server failed with the following error message: The WinRM client cannot process the request. It cannot determine the content type of the HTTP response from the destination computer.

I am trying to do :
set-user administrator -RemotePowershellEnabled $true

but it doesnt work in either powershell or EMS.

Someone please help me with this.

OK latest update is now I can get into the EMC. After I installed exchange I ran an update and that installed an Update which seems to have fixed that issue. When I go into the console I only see organization and Recipient Configuration. How do I see the Server Configuration?
Under Organization Configuration I am also missing Client Access and under Recipient I am missing Disconnected and move request.

Any help is appreciated.

Sorry I see I had to add Administrator to all the groups. Now the last thing I can not do is actually find where to put in the product key. It says in Server configuration but I do not see it and I have the administrator is organization management.

go to org level and you will see the key section on the right hand column

I am in org level and in Actions I only see Modify Config
Export List View Refresh and Help.

I know in Server Configuration I am missing some items. For instance I do not see Enter Product Key and other things. Owa (Default web Site) I can not change anything. Its locked. I added my admin account to every Exchange group. I really need to add the license and get access to the other config options.
Also, when I go into EMS and try to type :
Set-ExchangeServer -Identity Exch2010 -ProductKey 12345-abcde-12345-abcde-12345
I get set-exchangesever is not a vaild commandlet.

Can you tell me what groups I should be in.

Like I said in ADUC I have the exchange OU with groups. I made the admin account part of every group.
