Windows Server 2012 R2 Hosting – HostForLIFE.eu :: Install SharePoint 2013 on Windows Server 2012 R2

Feb 10th

Posted by Peter in European SharePoint 2013 Hosting

If you are reading this post, most probably you have difficulties to install SharePoint 2013 on Windows Server 2012 R2. According to the official Microsoft Statement, this is not supported until release of Service Pack 1 for SP2013. However, if you don’t want to wait and also already love advantages of R2, within this post I will share my successful experience installing SP2013 on Windows Server 2012 R2.

1. Login to your R2 server as Administrator. You can as well perform this step under the Farm Administrator account, which should be also local administrator on the server. Start Power Shell as Administrator and execute following statements:

Note: D:\ is your Windows installation media.

2. Download all prerequisites from the Internet and save it on local disk of the server, e.g. C:\SP2013Prereq:

SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 Native Client
Microsoft WCF Data Services 5.0
Microsoft Information Protection and Control Client (MSIPC)
Microsoft Sync Framework Runtime v1.0 SP1 (x64)
Windows Identity Extensions
Windows Identity Foundation (KB974405)
Windows Server AppFabric
CU 1 for AppFabric 1.1 (KB2671763)

3. Install all prerequisites directly from the prerequisites folder in the download sequence, EXCEPT the last two (AppFabric and CU 1 for AppFabric).

4. AppFabric requires special configuration, therefore installing it usual way is not be enough for SharePoint. Install it using following statement from command line:

Note: The syntax with quotas is correct, it separates commas, not the components.

5. Install AppFabric1.1-RTM-KB2671763-x64-ENU

6. Restart your server

Congratulations! Now you will be able to start SharePoint 2013 installer directly and to continue with SharePoint 2013 installation and configuration.

European HostForLIFE.eu Proudly Launches Entity Framework 6 with FREE Trial Hosting

Dec 11th

Posted by Ryan Belmont in Other Related Post

HostForLIFE.eu offers a variety of cheap and affordable European Windows ASP.NET Shared Hosting Plans to fit any need. No matter whether you’re starting a Blog with WordPress, installing a CMS solution with Drupal, opening a Forum with PHPBB, starting an Online Store with nopCommerce, or any number ventures beyond those mentioned above, our Windows ASP.NET Web Hosting plans are exactly what you’ve been looking for. HostForLIFE.eu is Microsoft No #1 Recommended ASP.NET Host Provider.
Entity Framework 6 (EF6) is an object-relational mapper that enables .NET developers to work with relational data using domain-specific objects. It eliminates the need for most of the data-access code that developers usually need to write.

Entity Framework is now available and there are top features to consider in this minor release:

Features that come for free. These are capabilities that are part of the core. You don’t even have to know they’re there to benefit from them, much less learn any new coding.
Level-setting features. A major enhancement is that Code First now supports mapping to Stored Procedures, something that has been supported by models created in the designer.
Another change is more interesting. With EF6, the EF APIs have been extracted from the .NET Framework; they’re now completely encapsulated in the NuGet package.
EF Designer in this category. It has been moved out of Visual Studio as of the 2013 edition, and instead provided as an extension to Visual Studio.
Ninja features. Support for asynchronous queries and saves, the return of custom Code First conventions, more extensibility using the new DbConfiguration type, support for mocking in unit tests, configurable retries on spotty connections, and even more.
