MessageStats 7.8.1 - Administrator Guide

What is MessageStats? MessageStats Information Sources Using the Console Interface Creating a Connection to Exchange Creating Gathering Tasks Default Gatherings Extending Gathering Tasks Configuring Audits Setting MessageStats Server Properties Setting Configuration Properties Setting Exchange Organization Properties Setting Exchange Server Properties Setting Task Execution Server Properties Setting Task Default Properties Compressing Tracking Log Files Using the MessageStats Reports Console Database Management Appendix A:Microsoft ASP.NET Configuration Issues Appendix B: Gathering Task Dependencies Appendix C:Troubleshooting Permission Problems

Appendix A:Microsoft ASP.NET Configuration Issues

MessageStats Reports require that Microsoft .Net Framework 4.7.2 be installed on the server on which the web-based reports are hosted. If you have problems accessing MessageStats Reports, you can check the following settings that affect ASP Active Server Page (ASP) configuration.

To install MessageStats Reports on Windows Server, you must install and enable IIS (Internet Information Services). The Web Server (IIS) role must be installed on Windows Server and the following IIS role services must be enabled:

Common HTTP Features

Application Development

Security

You can install the Web Services (IIS) role using Server Manager and click Manage | Add Roles and Features or through PowerShell cmdlets.

Repairing IIS Mappings for ASP.NET

In some Microsoft environments, you can encounter a configuration issue with Microsoft .NET which results in MessageStats being unable to report information. The error indicates that Microsoft .NET Framework version 4.7.2 must be installed on the IIS server that hosts MessageStats Reports, and that Microsoft ASP.NET must be enabled on the virtual directory that contains MessageStats Reports.

If you are sure that the Microsoft .NET Framework is installed and that ASP.NET is enabled, you may need to repair the IIS mappings for ASP.NET. The following procedure is based on the Microsoft Knowledge Base article 306005. Use the following procedure to configure Microsoft ASP.NET.

a
Click Start and select Run.
b
Type cmd and click OK.
f
Click Start and select Run.
g
Type iisreset and press ENTER.

If you follow the procedure to repair the IIS mappings and you still see the error, the cause might be that the Network Service is not granted the correct permission to write to the IIS metabase.

1
Click Start and select Run.
2
In the Open text box, type cmd and click OK.

The “-ga” option grants the specified user or group access to the IIS metabase and other directories that are used by ASP.NET.

Appendix B: Gathering Task Dependencies

Certain gathering tasks must be completed before other tasks can start. This appendix provides information about any dependencies or prerequisites for a gathering task, such as another task that must be completed or configuration that you must do in the MessageStats console.

Generally you run composite gathering tasks that contain the individual gathering tasks that run in a specific order, depending on information gathered by each gathering task. In this case, the individual gatherings are run in order of their dependencies.

For servers that host Exchange, there are composite gatherings that are specific to the Exchange role hosted by the server.

You might also run individual gathering tasks if specific information is required that is not part of a regularly-run composite gathering. In this case, you can use this appendix to determine the dependencies for an individual gathering.

MessageStats automatically runs the Exchange Organization Structure gathering every night at midnight (local time). If you have made changes to your Exchange organization, you can select the organization in the console treeview, right-click and select the Regather Structure option. This option allows you to force a regathering to enumerate the Exchange servers that comprise the organization.

The following table lists the dependencies for the MessageStats Exchange gathering tasks. The table is organized as follows:
