    Hi, when I try to start the Mediation service it fails with an error saying the service started and then stopped. Does anyone know how to fix this? I get the following event log errors:

    Event ID 25004

    Mediation Server service could not be started.

    Exception: Microsoft.Rtc.Internal.Wmi.UnableToDetectMachineFullyQualifiedDnException: Exception of type 'Microsoft.Rtc.Internal.Wmi.UnableToDetectMachineFullyQualifiedDnException' was thrown.

    at Microsoft.Rtc.Internal.Wmi.WmiConsumer.get_MachineDn()

    at Microsoft.Rtc.Internal.Wmi.WmiConsumer.get_Msft_SipMediationServerSetting()

    at Microsoft.RTC.MediationServerCore.Configuration.InitializeFromWMI()

    at Microsoft.RTC.MediationServerCore.Configuration.Initialize()

    at Microsoft.RTC.MediationServerCore.Server.OnStart()

    Cause: Internal error or a previous failure.

     

    Event ID 56013

    The WMI event provider timer callback has failed to retrieve the settings of a class. Will retry again.

    Class name: MSFT_SIPLocalNormalizationRuleData

    Retry in 300000 milliseconds

    Error Code: 800706BA

    Hi Simon, Hi Drago :)

    if the RTC Service Account on Mediation Server is not expired, please make sure that the password does not contain spaces or maybe any other special signs. I know it is weird behavior, but OCS Service Accounts cant have passwords with spaces. This caused a lot off headaches back in the old OCS R1 beta, RC, RTM,.... times ;)

    And it is still the same in R2 :)

    Best regards,

    Jan

    Thank you both for the pointers. I got it fixed but the cause was somewhat mundane. The DNS servers being used by the Mediation server were offline. Changed this to a different server and it works.
