Question : Exchange ActiveSync returned an HTTP 500 response

Hi there,

I have a SBS 2003 machine with exchange SP 2 installed. I'm trying to connect some new iphones to our exchange server but having difficulties (despite much progress). I can ow successfully verify them on the iphones but they will not send or receive email.

On running www.testexchangeconnectivity.com i get all greens with the exception of:

 Attempting FolderSync command on ActiveSync session
  FolderSync command test failed
   Tell me more about this issue and how to resolve it
   Additional Details
  Exchange ActiveSync returned an HTTP 500 response.  
 
I have followed all the instructions in http://www.it-eye.co.uk/faqs/readQuestion.php?qid=1 for the virtual directory configurations and now at a stand still.

Would greatly appreciate some advice \ guidance in integrating these iphones.

I have also downloaded and used the ihone activesync tester utility and again, I get all passes with exception of :

Active sync is NOT available. (activesync detected, but not correctly configured. (HTTP 500:Forms-based auth enabled?)

I have already disabled the forms based authentication in exchange?

Answer : Exchange ActiveSync returned an HTTP 500 response

Have you checked the settings as per the MS article? :
