MSExchangeTransport Event ID 12014

Hi,

Currently we are running exchange 2007 on Server 2003 R2 64bit.
Can anyone please help with the following error:

Event Type:        Error

Event Category:                TransportService

Event ID:              12014

Description:

Microsoft Exchange could not find a certificate that contains the domain name
mail.implicitbioscience.com.au in the personal store on the local computer.
Therefore, it is unable to support the STARTTLS SMTP verb for the connector
Exchange default with a FQDN parameter of mail.implicitbioscience.com.au. If
the connector's FQDN is not specified, the computer's FQDN is used. Verify
the connector configuration and the installed certificates to make sure that
there is a certificate with a domain name for that FQDN. If this certificate
exists, run Enable-ExchangeCertificate -Services SMTP to make sure that the
Microsoft Exchange Transport service has access to the certificate key.

The way I read it, your Exchange server wants to send SMTP mail with other
Exchange servers using TLS, but it cannot do that because you do not have a
proper certificate installed that matches your domain.  You can fix that by
installing a certificate.

Or by adding SMTP as one of the services the cert is used for.

Use get-exchangecertificate and see if there is a "S" beneath the
to change the services if it is not there.

How many certificates show up in that get-exchangecertificate output?
For the one that you /think/ you are using, do this:

get-exchangecertificate <thumbprint> | fl

In the "CertificateDomains", what names do you see?

Is the certificate "Status" valid?

Both certificates have the same name. Neither of them are for
mail.implicitbioscience.com -- so the error message is correct,
there is no certificate that matches the name.


Have you changed the FQDN on the Send or Receive Connectors from
ibbne02.implicitbioscience.com to mail.implicitbioscience.com?

You can get a certificate with multiple names (a "SAN" or "UC")
certificate. You'll need one if you are going to use different names
for different things (OWA, autodoscover, email, etc.).
