Well, using my own common sense I started thinking about alternatives. This seemed very weird and the solution to reinstall everything from scratch also seemed very far fetched. The other link also talks about problematic updates, or the fact that you shouldn’t let SfB Server update itself at all before installing a new CU. This made the whole “fix” rather useless. The TechNet forum post suggest uninstalling some updates which I couldn’t even find on my system. If you read the log it’ll tell you “ ERROR 1603: OCSMCU.msp had errors installing”. (never mind the versions in the screenshot, they are wrong as I had to “borrow” this picture from the link below). After this problem was fixed I was greeted with:Īnd after a while the Update installer told me that the Conferencing Server update failed: (You should edit the windows registry before running the Update Installer). It wouldn’t install and you’ll receive an error while running the SfB Server 2015 Update Installer. The first problem was regarding the Url rewrite module 2.0 for IIS on Windows Server 2016. I followed the installation method to apply the update to a back end server or Standard Edition server. Well, installing this CU wasn’t so straight forward after all.
At least I learned how to force-update SfB Server 2015 🙂įirst I installed the latest CU for SfB Server 2015 from (in my case February 2017 Cumulative Server Update Installer) as this should’ve “fixed” lots of offline messaging stuff. This basically means that all of my updating was for “nothing”. Some info regarding this (without an answer):Īfter some serious Googling I was still unable to enable offline messaging though. However, I learned the hard way that this feature is not yet enabled in the on-premise version of SfB Server 2015. There are many other guides as well, but they’re all about the same. You can enable it manually on older CU’s also, followingįor example. I followed lots and lots of different articles, and this feature should be enabled out of the box from CU3(?) onwards. One of the features I was looking forward to in SfB Server 2015 was the ability to use offline messaging.
I finally had some time to install and play around with Skype for Business Server 2015 and Exchange Server 2016 in my test environment.
