This topic is result of the AuthConfig certificate removal after the installation and need to request a new certificate as following:
###############
New-ExchangeCertificate -KeySize 2048 -PrivateKeyExportable $true -SubjectName “cn= Microsoft Exchange Server Auth Certificate” -FriendlyName “Microsoft Exchange Server Auth Certificate” -Services smtp -DomainName “Domain Name”
###############
Then follow the next steps to assign the new certificate:
- $a=get-date
- Set-AuthConfig -NewCertificateThumbprint 7A39541F8DF58D4821967DD8F899B27410F7C081 –NewCertificateEffectiveDate $a
- Accept to continue despite the fact that the certificate effective date is not 48 hours into the future
- Set-AuthConfig –PublishCertificate
- Make sure to remove any potential reference to the previous certificate (which might not exist anymore) by doing “Set-AuthConfig –ClearPreviousCertificate”.
