Exchange 2013 SP1 with a 2 member DAG. Starting today, administrator is not able to login to ecp. When you put your username and password in and click sign in, the page flashes the password field is cleared with no error message. The same thing happens of the server with the passive copy. I followed the advise on this thread:
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/a07fa978-81cf-4722-b222-eaa981e680d2/exchange-server-2013-ecp-login?forum=exchangesvrdeploy
to run
set-ecpvirtualdirectory -Identity "ecp (default web site)" -windowsauthentication $true -formsauthentication $false
do an ipconfig /flushdns on your desktop.
log in to your ecp with https://yourservername/ecp/?exchclientver=15
and the same thing happens. I restarted the server with the active copy, same problem. Email is flowing both ways (send and receive). On the server with the active copy, these errors are in the application log after the restart:
Microsoft Exchange Server Locator Service failed to find active server for database 'b167e9f8-98a2-4635-a6da-17cc153dadc8'. Error: An Active Manager operation failed. Error: Invalid Active Manager configuration. Error: The Cluster service is not running.
But the cluster service IS running and cluster manager reports 0 issues. Cluster service IS running on both servers. More errors:
