Opening the Lync Server 2010 Control Panel throws the following prompt: “Cannot find appropriate URL, please input a URL to connect Lync Server Control Panel”

Just wanted to make a quite note about the following prompt that you may receive when you launch the Lync Server 2010 Control Panel:

Cannot find appropriate URL, please input a URL to connect Lync Server Control Panel

If you are prompted with this message, you can either use the simple URL such as:  https://lyncadmin.domain.local/cscp

… or the FQDN name such as: https://lyncSTDSRV.domain.local/cscp

I’m not sure about the cause of this prompt but I seem to only experience it whenever I use IE 9 but not IE8.

  1. Ran into this and the URL above works but you can also 'Run as Administrator' and it will work.
