Thanks Andy. I've already figured it out. It was as simple as creating the app pool in IIS. Why is it we sometimes get into a groove where we always have to look for complicated solutions instead of simply trying something straight forward?

Yet, for me, I am getting REALLY frustrated! I have uninstalled and reinstalled both IIS and Exchange 2k3 on this server TWICE! What on earth do I have to do to get OWA to work? Start a fire, sacrifice a Linux CD, what?? In IIS there is no ExchangeApplicationPool listed, and the Exchange object is showing <invalid application pool>. The error I am getting when I try to navigate to OWA is "unspecified error". Now, that's a BIG help. Please, someone? I have people crawling all over me to get OWA back up again! -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Frank Buechler Sent: Tuesday, February 17, 2004 9:38 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Exchange Application Pool Good Morning All I'm having a bit of a problem with OWA. A quick summary of where I'm at: I am upgrading from Exchange 6 to 6.5. 6.0 is on a 2k server that I am getting rid of, the new server is 2k3. I followed Ed's upgrade method, and everything was working fine. I was in the final phase of moving mailboxes when one of my people here decided to move the location of the default web site in IIS on the new 2k3 server. OWA got hosed as a result. I was unable to cure it. What I ended up doing was following a KB describing how to uninstall and reinstall IIS and Exchange 2k3. The process went fine, however OWA is still not working, and that is because there is no ExchangeApplicationPool installed under Application Pools in IIS. Why did that not install? And, is there a way to install it without having to down the server again to reinstall everything?
