    @DoFast

    This happens due to a mismatch in the operating system architecture (x86 and x64) and the IIS URL Rewrite Module.

    In this case, the operating system was on x64 and the IIS URL Rewrite Module was for x86.

    To resolve this issue, you can download and install IIS URL Rewrite Module for x64 and vice versa.

    Pre-reqs required before installing Exchange were not installed. You can find the list of pre-reqs:
