Powershell – Resolving Exchange 2019 Management Shell startup failures

exchangepowershellwindows-server-2016windows-server-2019

I am trying to figure out while Exchange Management Shell is continuing to fail.

I have made sure kerberos is enable on the IIS. I am not sure what else I can do to try to fix this issue.

VERBOSE: Connecting to ExchangeServer.Website.com. New-PSSession :

What did you do before the error occurs? Have you changed certificate on IIS?

1.According to the error message above, it's suggested that checking the Exchange Servers Group at the following location on all Domain Controller.

Group Policy Management Editor under Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\User Rights AssignmentLocal Policies--> User Rights Assignments -->Manage auditing and security log--> “Exchange servers” group

If the Exchange Servers Group is missing, I suggest you try to update the GPO and test.

  1. Create another administrator account and test, this is in order to check if this issue could be related to the AD account permission.

3.Navigate to IIS Manager--> Default Website--> PowerShell

Change the physical path from C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V15\FrontEnd\HttpProxy\PowerShell

to: C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V15\ClientAccess\PowerShell

Then run IISRESET in CMD.
