    Hello Experts,

    Can you please help me figure out how to successfully run this command please?

    When I run test-owaconnectivity on one of our CAS servers, here is what I get:

    WARNING: Test user 'extest_0c7dd26927464' isn't accessible, so this cmdlet won't be able to test Client Access server
    connectivity.
    Could not find or sign in with user domain.com\extest_0c7dd26927464. If this task is being run without c
    redentials, sign in as a Domain Administrator, and then run Scripts\new-TestCasConnectivityUser.ps1 to verify that the
    user exists on Mailbox server server.domain.com
        + CategoryInfo          : ObjectNotFound: (:) [Test-OwaConnectivity], CasHealthCouldN...edInfoException
        + FullyQualifiedErrorId : 1C57E73D,Microsoft.Exchange.Monitoring.TestOwaConnectivity

    So after that I ran new-TestCasConnectivityUser.ps1 on the script folder:

    ..:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\Scripts>Get-MailboxServer server.domain.com |
     .\new-TestCasConnectivityUser.ps1
    Please enter a temporary secure password for creating test users. For security purposes, the password will be changed r
    egularly and automatically by the system if SCOM is installed. The password must be changed manually if SCOM is not ins
    talled.
    Enter password: *********
    Update test user permissions on: server.domain.com
    Click CTRL+Break to quit or click Enter to continue.:
    UserPrincipalName: extest_210dc47e41cd4@domain.com
    WARNING: The command completed successfully but no settings of 'domain.com/Users/extest_210dc47e41cd4'
    have been modified.
    WARNING: Test user 'extest_0c7dd26927464' isn't accessible, so this cmdlet won't be able to test Client Access server
    connectivity.

    We do have a test account called "extest_210dc47e41cd4" but I don't know if that affects the test because the command test-owaconnectivity is working smoothly on the other site we have.

    Currently, we do not have some issues on OWA connections or other CAS related issues. I just want to make this working for monitoring purposes on all our Exchange servers.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,

    From your description, I recommend you use the following cmdlet to test OWA connectivity.

    Test-OwaConnectivity -URL:https://mail.contoso.com/owa -MailboxCredential:(get-credential contoso\administrator)

    I have some tests in my environment using Exchange 2010, it occurs the same error as yours when running Test-OwaConnectivity. But when I use the above cmdlet, it works well.

    For more information, here is an article for your reference.

    Hope this can be helpful to you.

    You can try creating a test account first
