Thanks Joel....

Thanks for the info Joel!  Keep up the great work guys!

Hi Joel,

thanks fot the product keys, I was getting a bit frustrated for not having them . . . there is just a problem with the Enterprise PK the Keyis incomplete . . .

Thanks for the info

The SharePoint Server Enterprise Trial key is invalid, there in one character missing. Somebody got the right one?

The Enterprise version key is not working!!! Somebody got a working one?

I'm finding the licensing quite confusing. Are there in fact two different editions of the MOSS server? Or are the differences in the client CALs only, but with the same server bits? Is there more info about this available somewhere?

The enterprise key does not work. Any idea when the right one will be posted.

Hi,

The upgrade worked a treat.  The only issue is I tried to uninstall Sharepoint Designer B2TR before Sharepoint B2TR - and got some message that the sharepoint installation had been corrupted.  But after rebooting (post the Sharepoint designer uninstall), and logging in using the original administrator account I used to install it (instead of a different administrator account), it worked fine.

The only issue I have is that in your guidelines you say there is *no need* to uninstall .NET 3, etc.  But surely I am confused because you do use workflow foundation.....and it does not look like the installer automatically upgraded to .NET 3.

People do not want old versions of .NET 3 on their machines, so you should clear up the notes on this.  If it is possible to uninstall and put on the latest versions tell them when do to that.

I am just about to try this post upgrade - and I hope it will not break.

Strange its released publically but still not available on MSDN downloads. No products keys for MSDN universal or Gold Partners? Released on the wrong order? Is there an x64 version (not just x86)?

According to the SharePoint team blog, WSSv3 has been released and is available for download. A 30 day evaluation copy of MOSS 2007 is also available for download. Links for each: WSSv3 download

Is it me, or is the Enterprise product key missing a few digits?

When will it be available onto the subscriber downloads ??!!

As well, I can only find the

SharePoint Designer 2007 Beta 2 Tech Refresh.

Does anybody know where I can find either the beta (not the TR)?  Or is there a new version coming out to work with the trial version?

Thank you,

That's a good question... does anybody know where to get the DESIGNER?

Hi everybody! this week has been a deeply Sharepoint-week. First, I´ve worked in a great client, on...

Does anybody have any news or know where the DESIGNER is located or if it's even available?

Just a quick post. I keep emailing these links to people so I thought I would write them down and just

Well they've actually been available for a few days now but just incase anybody missed them here's the...

*** NOW AVAILABLE *** MOSS 2007 RTM (non-eval) up on MSDN for MSDN Subscribers

I installed as recommended - only difference in my installation was the value of the ServerRole subkey, that in my installation was APPLICATION.

Running the config wizard ends with the error: cannot connect to configuration database.

I used the same account and password as in the B2TR-installation. and I've verified, that the account is dbo on the config.db

Any ideas?

Best regards

Well, I've spent the better part of a day trying to install the RTM of Office SharePoint Server 2007 - no luck.  I first tried the upgrade from B2TR. The configuration wizard failed saying that the database schema was incompatible.

I then uninstalled everything, including the version of SQL Server 2005 I had running.  I followed closely the post about removing Office 12 (deleted files, ran the installer cleanup utility, cleared the registry, rebooted).

I was able to run the install again, this time as a STANDALONE installation so it would include SQL Server 2005 Express, but again the configuration wizard failed with the following exception:
