I was wondering about an elusive and very intermittent desktop sharing issue via the Edge Server. The only evidence of wrong doing was the Event Log on the Front End Server. The log was looping through Event ID 41025 and 41026 every 2 to 3 seconds!!!


Surely that’s not normal…

The BPA showed no evidence either. Used a simple telnet test from the FE to the CE over ports 8057 and 5062. All working.

Searching for Event ID 41025 on TechNet I found a post quoted below

“For the 41024, 41025, 41026 loop of errors, the issue was tracked down to a strange certificate issue.

On the Edge External Nic I had used one vendor’s for the UCC certificates (GoDaddy), as well I used that same vendor for the certificates on Exchange, TMG, and on the FE server Nic BUT for the internal facing edge NIC I had used a different vendor (RapidSSL) as I already had it.

I replaced the certificate from the one vendor with essentially the same thing but issued from the same vendor as all the other certificates in the deployment (GoDaddy)”


Ok, probably a good idea to check the cert assignments on the Edge Server. Turns out that I was using the same GoDaddy cert on the internal and external interfaces. Mmm…


Started to wonder if the FE was happy with that as the internal servers all used an internal CA. Two choices, either replace the Edge internal cert with one from the internal CA or export the Edge GoDaddy cert and import to the FE Personal Store. 

I went with option 2 and voila, Event ID 41025 gone!!!

Event ID 47068 – CMS Issue

If you ever see the following Error in Event log
Event ID 47068 GetAndPublish web service failed

Recently I was deploying a new Lync 2010 environment, here is where the issue started..the customer decided that they would provide a SQL 2012 backend for the CMS (even though not supported). This meant that mid deployment we had to change the backend database, only thing is that the SQL backend was removed prior to detaching from the Lync FE. 

I ran the usual install database which completed without any errors, checked the databases and all looked fine.

When I fired up the first user I got the screen shot below

I could search for users and found them but no presence updates at all. A tell tale sign that the RTCDyn database isn’t playing nice.

Checking the FE I found this error below, didn’t take too much notice of it at first. Then wondered why it was the LS User Services??

Digging deeper I also found this one below, not too many of them either

Lync is telling the client that it doesn’t trust the query to the database for the client to find presence info etc.
OK, so how do you re-authenticateattach the cert to a database that reports no errors when deploying?
Powershell Of Course!
Since it was a new install I wasn’t too concerned about re-installing the CMS
#uninstall
unInstall-CsDatabase -CentralManagementDatabase -SqlServerFqdn
#Re-install default
Install-CsDatabase -CentralManagementDatabase -SqlServerFqdn 

Re Published the Topology and then Ran Setup and finally it all started working
