THANKSSSSS
I’ve been searching for a solution everywhere and all I could find is craps like reinstalling IIS and things like that.
This one has done the job and I’m finally able to access my OWA site.
Your solution is not easy to find but it’s the easiest to apply.
Thanks again

I met this problem after every rollup pack with Exchange 2010.
After retablished OWA with other tricks found on the Internet, your solution is the greatest.
Thanks a lot buddy!

After applying Exch2010 Roll-up 2 and 3 we ran into this issue at a customer. This was the fix! Many thanks!

Eureka!
Why isn’t this up in lights somewhere?
And why haven’t *more* people offered you beer?
Just hit the dreaded OWA blank page issue after Exchange 2010 SP1 Update Rollup 5 . This is on dear little SBS 2011.
Users complain re OWA going dead. Takes a while to figure out the Update Rollup has been pushed down the pipe at you and is the likely culprit.
Then m-u-c-h longer researching any number of ‘it worked for me’ solutions, many of which involve uninstalling & reinstalling the Rollup.
When all along, we could have simply run the updatecas.ps1 script. I found this blogpage, ran the script, problem solved.
Worked for me.

This just saved my life. I just finished an SBS 2003 to 2011 upgrade, which has been a nightmare. Between the undocumented settings and patches screwing more things up than fixing them, I can’t believe how complex this was. I’m always amazed at how these gems are not documented by Microsoft. I’m an IT consultant that does technical support as well, and Exchange has become a beast.

Thanks again, I could hug you,

Cliff

You just need to install the RPC over HTTP Proxy feature by heading to Server Manager – Features – Add Feature then select RPC over HTTP Proxy from the list and continue through the wizard to add the feature!

Thank you so much! I was sure it was update related, however it just recently showed up and we install server updates weekly. There is so much garbage advice related to fixing this so thank you for being the real deal! You are the only one with the simple fix. Even Microsoft doesn’t have an easy answer on this. Yahoo!

Does not work for me. This issue appeared after I installed on my SBS 2011 server, this update: Update Rollup 5-v2 for Exchange Server 2010 Service Pack 2 (KB2785908).

VLuu
December 22, 2012 @ 05:13

I recently installed rollup5-v2 for exchange 2010 SP2 and had OWA blank page. This fixed it!Awesome!

I would like to understand why OWA displayed blank page after installing rollup. Our OWA is not customized.

Thanks again.

Brilliant suggestion, save me hours today.It must be run as administrator.

Adam B
January 4, 2013 @ 17:53

FYI for those who have never used powershell, just open the exchange management shell as administrator

cd to c:

and then just type updatecas.ps1

(so it will look like)
C:>updatecas.ps1

I was trying to run it from C:Program FilesMicrosoftExchange ServerV14Bin and it wasnt having any of it

Amateurs! haha

OH MY GOD! I am currently drinking a nice cold one in your honor sir! THANK YOU SO MUCH! Why in the world would MS updates NOT do this?! After every rollup I suppose I should do this instead of attempting rebuilds on my virtual web directories.

You are the man!

Why oh why can’t Microsoft just clearly document this I don’t know – perhaps this info is only for the MS clique or something.
anyway – thanks for posting this, saved me some time. I’ll have a beer dedicated to you.

If you already have RCP over HTTP Proxy installed as a feature, then this is all you need.

For those who said the RPC solution fixed it for them, that’s because you already ran the script.

Hi,

My problem following Sp1 was the blank page being presented when you went into web outlook. I applied the script Updatecas.ps1 as suggested, but continue to get the following error when applying the script in the Exchange management Shell…

[12:15:43] Copying files from ‘C:Program FilesMicrosoftExchange ServerV14ClientAccessowaCurrent’ to ‘C:Program
FilesMicrosoftExchange ServerV14ClientAccessowa14.1.438.0’
[12:15:43] Found 1 OWA virtual directories.
[12:15:43] Updating OWA virtual directories
[12:15:43] Error updating OWA/ECP: Access is denied.

I’m continually getting OWA/ECP: Access is Denied. I have checked all security settings I can think of but to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
