Symptoms

In a Microsoft Exchange Server 2016 environment, assume that the Active Directory forest root domain is configured as a single label domain that has one or two characters, such as ab. When a user or administrator tries to access a website (for example, Outlook Web App (OWA), Exchange Control Panel (ECP), Autodiscover and so on) through the Client Access services (CAS), an unhandled exception occurs.
