Error occurred while searching for the on-premises Exchange server

Hi there,

I just installed Exchange 2010 on my PC with Windows XP and I have this error when I try to connect to EMC Exchange Console. I checked on the website and is compatible with Windows XP SP 1 and I think it should work. Can anyone help me to fix this error ? Why is not working and why I have this error ?

Thank you !

Installation failed

The following error occurred while searching for the on-premises Exchange server:

The term”C:Program FilesMicrosoftExchange Server\V14BinConnectFunctions.ps1” is not recognized as the name of a cmdiet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name or if a path was included, verify the path is correct and try again. It was running the command: “C:Program FilesMicrosoftExchange ServerV14BinConnectFunctions.ps1”.

To solve this issue follow these steps:

1. Verify that the “ConnectFunctions.ps1, RemoteExchange.ps1” and “CommonConnectFunctions.ps1” files are existing in the “%ExchangeInstallPath%bin” directory. If these file are missing copy the files from the Exchange Server 2010 Service Pack 1 installation media to the “%ExchangeInstallPath%bin” directory. These files are existing in the “setupserverrolescommon” folder.

2. Right-click on the Desktop>>click “New”>>and click on “Shortcut”.

3. In the “Type the location of the item” type in the text below:
%SystemRoot%System32WindowsPowerShellv1.0powershell.exe -noexit -command ". '%ExchangeInstallPath%binRemoteExchange.ps1'; Connect-ExchangeServer -auto"

4. Name the shortcut “Exchange Management Shell” and click on “Finish”.

5. Right-click on the “Exchange Management Shell”>>click “Properties” and eliminate the text from “Start In” area on the “Shortcut”option.

6. Now click “Change Icon”, next click “Browse”  and type in the text below:
“%SystemRoot%Installer{4934D1EA-BE46-48B1-8847-F1AF20E892C1}PowerShell.exe”

7. Select “Apply” and click “OK”

8. Replicate the New “Exchange Management Shell”shortcut to this location:

%systemdrive%ProgramDataMicrosoftWindowsStart MenuProgramsMicrosoft Exchange Server 2010

That’s all. Also you can get Exchange Management Console Troubleshooter from here.
