Installing Sharepoint 2010 Beta..
Microsoft Sharepoint 2010 beta software requires the following:
- Application server role, web server IIS Role
- SQL Server 2008 native client
- Microsoft “Geneva” framework runtime
- Microsoft Chart Controls for Microsoft Framework 3.5
- Microsoft Filter Pack 2.0
- SQL Server 2008 Analysis Services ADOCMD.NET
I attempted to install this on a development Windows 2008 R2 server, which already had SQL Server 2008 R2 installed. Out of the list below, l only needed to pre-install the Geneva framework runtime, MS chart control and ADOMD.net SQL 2008 Analysis services – even though l had SSAS installed as a SQL Server 2008 component.
Will post pictures later.
To install, you download the 575Mb Office2010 beta executable from Microsoft’s Sharepoint Website.
Running this, you first select – install software prerequities to deal with above. A reboot is required. The you select install sharepoint server.
Source for the Beta Product key – click here.
Since l would be using a separate SQL Server instalation – not sql server express, l did not select standalone. Then l selected complete installation, and changed my install paths to Drive D not Drive C – which l always reserve soley for OS installations only. Next, you select run the sharepoint configuration wizard. Click close. Select yes to restart necessary services. I selected Create a new server farm.
