Hi,
I had installed Exchange 2010 on a VM which had two drives C: & E: the Exchange was installed on E: drive but the VM & the VHDs were deleted later on.
Now i have created a new VM with the same name which the previous Exchange used but it has only C: drive when i try to run the setup it gives me error.
And when i run the recoverserver option i get the following.
Please suggest how can i get the Exchange installed in this scenario.
Regards,
maqsood

Hi
You will need to use adsiedit.msc to remove the old address book, once deleted you will be able to run the setup again.

Wednesday, June 13, 2012 11:24 AMOn ADSI Edit MMC right click on ADSI Edit and click on connect to.
From second drop down list bellow select a well-known naming context select configuration and click ok
In configuration it will give you FQDN of your domain
Now go to services under CN=Configuration, DC=yourdomain,DC=com
Under Services double click on CN=Microsoft Exchange, this will take you to your domain.
Under this double double click on CN=Address Lists Container
Under this you will get CN=Offline Address Lists groups.
Remove these settings from here restart your installation. -

Hi there
Are there mailboxes in this database you need as their are probably lingering objects which need to be removed using ADSI Edit to remove the mailbox databases in the Exchange Administrative Group. But only do this if the DB with its Mailboxes is not required.
