Installing Servers with Server.msi

Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 and Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 R2 will reach end of support on January 9, 2018. To stay supported, you will need to upgrade. For more information, see Resources to help you upgrade your Office 2007 servers and clients.

Server.msi installs or uninstalls Standard Edition, Enterprise Edition, Proxy Servers and Edge Servers. Launch Server.msi from the setup CD with the following syntax:

MsiExec.exe /i Server.msi SERVER={SE|EE|AP|PROXY} SKU={SE|EE} [Optional Msiexec.exe Parameters]

The parameters must be typed in upper case. The SKU parameter is required for installing a Proxy server (specified by the PROXY parameter or an Edge Server (specified by the AP parameter) and its value (SE|EE) must match the type of product key you will provide during installation. If you are installing from a Standard Edition CD, specify SE for the SKU parameter. If you are installing from an Enterprise Edition CD, specify the EE for SKU parameter.

When installing Standard Edition or Enterprise Edition (specified by the SE and EE values for the SERVER parameter), the SKU parameter is not required.

Such as:

Msiexec.exe /i Server.msi SERVER=SE /l*v C:\SE.log

OR:

Msiexec.exe /i Server.msi SERVER=PROXY SKU=SE /l*v C:\Proxy.log

An installation wizard appears to prompt the user through the process.

Standard Edition Servers and Enterprise Edition Server roles require the MSXML 6.0 parser to be installed in advance. From within the Office Communications Server installation disc, locate and run Msxml6.msi.
