EECS Exchange Web Access Unavailable — Now Fixed

September 15, 2008 by Lars Rohrbach

Web access to the EECS Exchange server FONTUS via http:owa.eecs.berkeley.edu is currently unavailable, due to problems after the monthly Microsoft patching last Thursday. Users are able to login, but then only receive the error “HTTP/1.1 503 Service Unavailable”.

Access to Exchange via Outlook, including connections using “RPC over HTTP”, continue to function correctly.

CUSG staff are actively working on a resolution.

UPDATE

[2008-09-15 17:55:22 | Lars Rohrbach]

Web access to the EECS Exchange server via http://owa.eecs.berkeley.edu has been repaired.

The problem stemmed from an unintentional change to the configuration of FONTUS, presumably during the patching process. With service configuration repaired on FONTUS, access via the web interface became functional once again.

We apologize for the delay, and thank you for your patience.
