Greetings everyone. Getting ready to install Three new BES Server today. Noticed that MR2 is now available, and downloaded it. Question, is this the full product, or I have to install the 5.0 Server, then MR1 and then MR2, or just MR2?

Thanks for your help

It's not a full install.
You need to install BES 5.0, then SP1, then MR2.

yea, don't forget to install the service pack. Might as well if you're doing a new server install.

Thanks

Sorry, just want to be sure I have this right....The order should go

BES 5.0.0
BES 5.0.0 SP1
BES 5.0.1 MR1
BES 5.0.1 MR2

Is that right?

It'll work, but you're adding an extra step.

Do:
BES 5.0
SP1
MR2

Having just done an upgrade from 4.1.7, I can tell you it's even simpler! I think!

BES 5.0.1 (the full SP1 installer)
BES 5.0.1 MR2

Thanks, you are the BEST!

I assume this is like the other updates, stop all services, install then reboot?

When I try to install the MR2 I keep getting the error "The installation source for this product is not available. Verify the source exists and that you can acess it."
I stopped all the services, and have the path to the instalation. What is it looking for?
I am running BES 5.0.1 MR1 Bundle 82

[justpaul]

place the MR2 installer locally in the c:\temp dir (create, if doesn't exist.)

[jjbova]

I tried that. I actually just gace up on MR2 and went straight to SP2 with no issues. I wish I had an answer or solution to my other problem for future admins with this issue, but my suggestion is SP2..... It fixed my application push issue too.

I think I have seen that error before when the .exe I was running was blocked. Check the properties of the .exe and down towards the bottom may be an unblock button.
