Installing Windows SharePoint Services 2.0 and Windows SharePoint Services 2.0 Components

  • Article

After setting up the domain controllers and Active Directory accounts, the Internet Platform and Operations group could log on the front-end Web servers by using the STSAdminAcct account and finish the deployment and configurations as outlined in the following sections.

Installing Windows SharePoint Services

Windows SharePoint Services requires a server running Windows Server 2003 with IIS 6.0 and ASP.NET enabled.

Note

Double-clicking the Setupsts.exe file installs Windows SharePoint Services with the Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine (Windows) (WMSDE). In the environment described in this paper, dedicated servers running SQL Server host the Windows SharePoint Services customer data, so Windows SharePoint Services was installed without WMSDE by using the following steps.

Install Windows SharePoint Services

  1. Open a command prompt.

  2. Navigate to the directory that contains the Setupsts.exe installation file.

  3. Type setupsts.exe remotesql=yes.

Installing Windows SharePoint Services Language Packs

The Windows SharePoint Services deployment created by the Internet Platform and Operations group is running the English version of Windows SharePoint Services. Installing additional Windows SharePoint Services language packs allows the creation of sites and subsites in other languages.

Install a Windows SharePoint Services language pack

  1. Download the language pack from the Microsoft Download Center Web site.

  2. Double-click the downloaded file to uncompress the language pack.

  3. Open the folder that contains the language pack files.

  4. Double-click Setup.exe.

  5. Repeat steps 1-4 for each language on each front-end Web server.
