Install MOSS On Windows 7

Install MOSS On Windows 7

In couple of days I’m going to lecture about MOSS\WSS Load Testing using Visual Studio 2010, for that reason I need to install MOSS on my computer – Lot’s Of Cool Demos!

So after a very fast search I found this great article on how to do it - For more information here is the full article

So how to get started?

First you need to download the SharePoint installation -

Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 with Service Pack 1 or Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 x64 with Service Pack 1

But you’ll notice that this message popup, this because MOSS \ WSS can only be installed on Windows Server 2003/2008.

Every Things Is Alright Thanks to Bamboo

Using Bamboo Setup Helper file you can install MOSS \ WSS on Windows Vista \ 7!

Run the setup (next next next).

When the installation has finished placed the SharePoint installation you downloaded before and placed it in the same folder as “SetupLauncher”.

When you run “SetupLauncher” a console window will appears,select SharePoint setup file and run it.

And Walla!
