Run Setup.exe under C:\SharePointFilesSelect standalone (Windows 7 cant be used for production deployments of SharePoint 2010and its recommended that you use Standalone only)

After the installation is complete, you will be prompted to start the SharePoint Products andTechnologies Configuration Wizard.

After a SharePoint solution (.wsp file) is deployed, it recycles the application pool. To improvethe initial page load times, set the optimizeCompilations property of the tag inyour web.config file (C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\80\web.config) to true.

9.

SharePoint Designer 2010 is also free and can help you better design your SharePoint site(s). Youcan download it here.

*Without linebreaks ofcourse.

When I run the Setup I get the following Setup error:This product requires Windows Server 2008 Service Pack 2 or above.

Hi guys,

Ill use Sharepoint in my company (~20 users) to act like a ECM, just for document repository,some permission roles, etc.

I have a Quad-core PC with 4 GB RAM and Win7 64-bits installed. JIRA applications arealready installed on this machine.

Can I also install the Sharepoint Foundation 2010 for production in this machine, just for 20users??? My question is, will I have performance issues???

Thank you.

Alessandro, I dont have an answer to your question. That depends on how much traffic the 20users put on the site.

I would recommend having 8GB RAM on that machine given that there will be multiple IIS,SQL server, SharePoint timer service and User Code service processes running on that machine.Add to that the JIRA applications that you have, which I have no clue how much memorytheyd consume.

Thanks for this. Was really useful and worked fine for me. You need to watch out if you copy-and-paste the XML line because the quote marks appear as ascii #148.

Hi,

I was also facing the problem with the config file. The issue is in this blog in the openingquote for attribute is instead of . So if you do a direct copy paste you will encounter theproblem of xml invalid.
