Microsoft Exchange Transport will not start when Exchange DkimSigner is enabled
Versions
- Windows Server Version: Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard
- Exchange Version: Exchange Server 2010 14.3.123.4
- Installed DKIM Exchange Version: 3.2.0
Description
Microsoft Exchange Transport will not start when Exchange DkimSigner is enabled.
Steps to Reproduce
Download the dkim-exchange-3.2.0.zip and extract to Desktop Open "Exchange Management Shell" Powershell CMD: Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted CD into the folder where the zip has been extracted. Execute the install script .\install.ps1 Run Configuration.DkimSigner.exe and configure Domain Enter to finish (Transport will not start and Conifuration.DkimSigner.exe hangs up)
If I disable the Exchange DkimSigner in the configuration transport starts just fine.
Updated to the latest rollup for Exchange 2010 and still the same results.
Hey @ModernAesthetics
I just spun up a test 2010 environment and can't seem to reproduce the issue using the GUI installer on pre-release version. What .NET framework versions do you have installed?
Configuration.DkimSigner.exe also displays errors about getting Exchange version and running powershell.
I am getting with both 1.1 and pre-release.

Are you using the latest pre-release and getting this issue?

When I run Configuration.DkimSigner.exe: First error is "Couldn't determine installed Exchange Version: Couldn't initialize PowerShell runspace."
What would stop PowerShell runspace? That seems to be the key to all dysfunction.
Here is what I get when I try to do anything with Configuration.DkimSigner.exe even in Visual Studio Debug mode: See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

The only timed I reproduced that error was on a server without Exchange installed. The section of code where it's throwing the exception is where it runs the cmdlet "Get-ExchangeServer" after loading the Exchange Powershell to fetch the Exchange version.
Is the Exchange Management Shell working properly on the server?
Yes, the Exchange Management Shell is working properly, but the C# Powershell run method is not. It must be something on my machine since it’s consistent across all builds. I just don’t know how to report the problem to Microsoft. I have support tokens. What specific .NET Powershell object could cause that?

I tested the classes that are called to get Get-ExchangeServer to work and it fails on every Windows 2008 R2 Server with Exchange 2010. All servers have fully operational Exchange Powershell.
In my VM running the eval of 2008 R2 + Exchange 2010 SP3, I can't reproduce this issue.
So am I using the wrong version of your program or what? The console app I built was from the 4/29 code and an older dll for automation. If you run it it should return the Get I tried it on two Exchange 2010 servers, one VM and one physical box and both failed. The console app I wrote used the code from GitHub and should return the Get-ExchangeServer value.
Can you please direct me to the link to download the latest source or builds? Thanks for trying.
Builds and source for versions are here: https://github.com/Pro/dkim-exchange/releases
@mattidp the problem must not be investigated as the only one thng to do is upgrade to 2016 server and exchange at least.

If the program supports 2008 R2 and Exchange 2010 as it appears to, I would prefer to find out why on two different machines installed at different times the same symptoms occur. Upgrading OS and especially Exchange Server is not a small task.
Depending on how much mailboxes you have, it’s really quick ! Less than 24h from 2010 to 2016, and 80 mailboxes (1Tb). You have 3 months to migrate. Don’t waste your time...
Thanks for your opinion. If my customers want to spend that much money to get DKIM to work, you are correct. You must not pay for software :) SPF works without add-on functionality.
You MUST inform them the risks after the 14 jan 2020.
being on 2008 past this date it suicidal...
Hello, I have exactly the same issue. I mean after the installation, the transport service is not restarting (unless I disable the Exchange DkimSigner). In the event log I get the watson error: Le rapport Watson est prêt à être envoyé pour l'ID de processus : 13516, avec les paramètres : E12, c-RTL-AMD64, 14.01.0438.000, edgetransport, ExchangeDkimSigner, E.D.DkimSigningRoutingAgentFactory..ctor, S.Reflection.TargetInvocationException, 6d6d, 03.02.0000.-001. ErrorReportingEnabled : False
Please try the latest release and report back. v3.2.3 has been published today.
Still does not work, but the good new is it doesn't crash Exchange Transport service. Just won't recognize Exchange. Still the problem with Powershell runspace.
So it doesn't seem to be a specific problem with the application then? Given you've written your own console application which also fails, I think that rules out a specific bug with the software but doesn't help you unfortunately.
Did you already try running the command in EMS, and if so, what was the outcome?
Get-ExchangeServer -Identity <hostname> | fl AdminDisplayVersion
EDIT: Escaped the <hostname> parameter as GitHub tried to parse it has HTML.
