Exchange Hybrid Wizard won't run

Hi all,

 

2 x Exchange 2019 (CU 14 and April SU) in a dag

Windows Server 2022

 

I'm trying to run the Hybrid Configuration Wizard but nothing happens.

 

From one of the servers I go to https://aka.ms/HybridWizard. Using Edge it offers to Open Microsoft.Online.CSE.Hybrid.Client.application but nothing happens when I click Open.

 

I downloaded the application and tried to run it manually but absolutely nothing happens.  Nothing in the event logs to say why nothing happened.  I had a look and ClickOnce Application Deployment Support Library is the default to open .application files.  Tried using the old IE to run it (as some posts online suggest) but again nothing happens.

 

If I run the application from another PC (Windows 10), it attempts to run but fails and I get the error:

Deployment and application do not have matching security zones

 

Has anyone else had this issue and was able to resolve?

 

thanks

 

justin

 

EDIT: I am looking at doing the Classic Full hybrid.

    We had to add the following key to get the HCW to actually install on our 2022 server.

     

    reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge" /v ClickOnceEnabled /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f

     

    Hope it helps.

    Is there someone at Microsoft that can explain why the HCW won't run on Server 2022? And is it ok to run it on a third party server if going Classic Full?

    I am able to install it on a 2019 server. This doesn't have Exchange installed. Seems the HCW doesn't support Server 2022 (or vice versa).

    Wanting to do a Classic Full Hybrid, can I run it from a third party server, or does it need to be run from an Exchange server?

     

    EDIT: AHHHH!  Are you kidding me!  It installed but won't run.  I click the icon to run it and nothing happens! Can't Microsoft make something that works!

     

     

    EDIT EDIT: Got it to run, but had to manually click the .exe in:

     

    C:\Users\theuser\AppData\Local\Apps\2.0\29KX6YHX.JN1\0NDR9CNW.HOZ\micr..tion_5661bd3e342e4e9f_0011.0001_9a1ee13031f92f9c

     

    Did the intial bit to ensure communication is ok but won't continue until sure Classic Hybrid can be configured form a third party server.

      justletmelogin50 ,  You get this to work?   I am able to run the wizard but it fails to register towards end.   Have been working with MS on this and they have not been able to fix it yet.

        HeyTJDeerinck 

         

        No I haven't got it working on Server 2022.  I can run it on Server 2019 and assume it will work ok on a non-Exchange server (still double checking some things before fully running it), but only by double clicking the .exe itself, the desktop shortcut doesn't work.
