Hello,
Sorry if this is a repeat question, but anything I have found already is from 2009 and doesn't appear to be a solution.
I updated the server and now I get errors when opening Exchange Powershell (and EMC) on the server. I've tried to uninstall the updates and backing up the state of the server. This is a 2008 Server with Exchange 2010. The DC is a 2003 Windows Server. Any help is appreciated.
It also takes the server 20-40 minutes or more to reboot and login.
The error:
VERBOSE: Connecting to 2008SERV.ServicesInc.local
[2008serv.servicesinc.local] Connecting to remote server failed with the following error message : The WinRM client received an HTTP server error status (500), but the remote service did not include any other information about the cause of the failure.
