Hi All,

We are using Dynamics CRM On-Premises version 8.2, and for the last week, we have been facing an issue: incoming emails from a specific Outlook mailbox are not syncing with Dynamics CRM 8.2 On-Premises. We are using server-side synchronization.

When we checked the logs in the Mailbox Alert, we found the following error:

Error Server Busy

ActivityId: 80489ae8-b966-4c0c-b7c9-e4c2fb9b7b81
>Error : System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: The server cannot service this request right now. Try again later.
at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol.ReadResponse(SoapClientMessage message, WebResponse response, Stream responseStream, Boolean asyncCall)
at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol.EndInvoke(IAsyncResult asyncResult)
at Microsoft.Crm.Asynchronous.EmailConnector.ExchangeServiceBinding.EndGetItem(IAsyncResult asyncResult)
at Microsoft.Crm.Asynchronous.EmailConnector.GetItemsStep.EndCall()
at Microsoft.Crm.Asynchronous.EmailConnector.ExchangeIncomingEmailProviderStep.EndOperation()

Anyone can please assist on this.

Thanks & Regards,

Hello GDevda,

The error message you're seeing in your Dynamics CRM 8.2 On-Premises Mailbox Alerts, specifically "The server cannot service this request right now. Try again later," combined with the SoapException and ErrorServerBusy code, strongly suggests an issue with the Exchange Server that your CRM is trying to connect to for server-side synchronization.

Here's a breakdown of the potential causes and troubleshooting steps to resolve this issue:

Understanding the Error:

ErrorServerBusy: This indicates that the Exchange Server is experiencing a temporary overload or resource contention. It's unable to process the incoming email request from Dynamics CRM at that moment.
SoapException: This points to a problem with the SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) communication between Dynamics CRM and Exchange. SOAP is used for web service communication, and the exception suggests that the Exchange Server is failing to respond correctly to the SOAP request.
"Try again later": The error itself suggests that this might be a temporary issue.

Potential Causes:

Exchange Server Overload:
- High CPU or memory utilization on the Exchange Server.
- Large number of concurrent requests.
- Temporary resource contention.

Network Issues:
- Network latency or connectivity problems between the Dynamics CRM server and the Exchange Server.
- Firewall or proxy issues blocking communication.

Exchange Web Services (EWS) Issues:
- Problems with the EWS service on the Exchange Server.
- EWS throttling.

Mailbox Issues:
- Large mailbox size.
- Corrupted mailbox items.

Dynamics CRM Issues:
- Issues with the Dynamics CRM Email Connector service.
- Incorrect configuration of server-side synchronization.

Exchange Server Updates:
- A recent Exchange Server update might have introduced a compatibility issue.

Troubleshooting Steps:

Check Exchange Server Health:
- Performance Monitor: Use Performance Monitor on the Exchange Server to check CPU, memory, and disk utilization.
- Event Viewer: Review the Exchange Server's Event Viewer logs for any errors or warnings.
- Exchange Management Shell: Use Exchange Management Shell cmdlets to check the health of the Exchange Server and its services.

Verify Network Connectivity:
- Ping Test: Perform a ping test from the Dynamics CRM server to the Exchange Server to check network connectivity and latency.
- Telnet: Use Telnet to test connectivity to the Exchange Web Services (EWS) port (typically 443).
- Firewall and Proxy: Ensure that there are no firewall or proxy settings blocking communication between the Dynamics CRM server and the Exchange Server.

Restart Exchange Services:
- If the Exchange Server is experiencing temporary overload, restarting the Exchange services might resolve the issue.

Check Mailbox Size:
- If the mailbox is excessively large, consider archiving or deleting older emails.

Test with a Different Mailbox:
- Try configuring server-side synchronization with a different Outlook mailbox to see if the issue is specific to the original mailbox.

Restart Dynamics CRM Email Connector Service:
- Restart the Microsoft Dynamics CRM Asynchronous Processing Service.

Review Server-Side Synchronization Configuration:
- Double-check the server-side synchronization configuration in Dynamics CRM to ensure that it's correct.

Check Exchange Web Services (EWS) Throttling:
- Exchange Server uses throttling policies to prevent excessive use of EWS. Check the throttling policies to ensure that they are not too restrictive.

Apply Exchange Server Updates:
- If there are any available Exchange Server updates, install them.

Contact Microsoft Support:
- If the issue persists, contact Microsoft Support for further assistance. They can investigate the issue further and provide specific guidance.

Key Recommendations:

Focus on Exchange Server health: The ErrorServerBusy message strongly suggests an issue with the Exchange Server.
Check network connectivity: Network issues can also cause this error.
Review server-side synchronization configuration: Ensure that it's correctly configured.

By following these troubleshooting steps, you should be able to identify the root cause of the issue and resolve it.
