Good afternoon-

Afer installing S4B 2019 I am unable to start the service. I examine the event logs under Lync Server and the error code 47067 appears as well as 56010 and 56011. I have addressed the certificate issue by cleaning out the cert stores but still cannot get the service started. I have been troubleshooting via Google and followed advice found but no joy.

I cannot paste logs since system is on another network and cannot post them

Any help would be appreciative

    Hi @Brett H ,

    Can you provide a detailed screenshot about your event ID description?

    Have you tried to check your status of front-End Service?

    Do you have any operations before this issue occurred?

    In my experience, there are several factors which can cause this issue. If your error message shows “Network connectivity
    issues or an incorrectly configured certificate on the destination server”, we recommend you try to run the following command to check the certificate installation path. If there is certificate information in the c:\computer_filtered.txt file, you can determine the certificate name according to the "FriendlyName" in it, and then check if the corresponding certificate is installed correctly in the certificate management console.

    Get-Childitem cert:\LocalMachine\root -Recurse | Where-Object {$.Issuer -ne $.Subject} | Format-List * | Out-File "c:\computer_filtered.txt"

    This started happening a lot randomly for us. We ended up moving all our chats to Teams and our phone calls to a free program called MicroSip (Our on prem phone server doesn't support teams integration).

    It seems any time a certificate is messed with, usually some kind of Azure AD cert gets automatically put there, or if by accident we have a cert autoenrollment with group policy, etc.... it crashes the Skype front end service. I don't know why its so unstable, but my guess is Microsoft wants people off of it and go to teams. Thing is it worked really nicely in our environment not just for chats, but for enterprise voice as it had a direct sip connection to our on prem phone system environment. With Teams in the cloud, we don't have that, so finding MicroSip was a real nice win for us.
