In this article we’ll describe prerequisites software requirement and SharePoint 2010 installation procedure under Windows 2012 R2 Datacenter edition. This step by step Installation guide was performed in test LAB environment. Alternate procedure may be adopted for real environment.
Lab environment:
- Platform: VMware workstation-10 (Virtual Machine)
- Memory: 4GB
- HDD: 60GB
- Hostname: winlabsrv
- IP Addr: 172.22.2.100
Prerequisites:
- Windows 2012 R2 Datacenter edition
- SharePoint 2010
- Application Server Role, Web Server (IIS) Role
- NET Framework 3.5 (includes .NET 2.0 and 3.0)
- Windows Identity Foundation
- Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Native Client
- Microsoft Sync Framework Runtime v1.0 (x64)
- Microsoft Chart Controls

Step1 – Execute
SharePointServer.exe File
This
is the first screen you will see when you execute SharePointServer.exe file.
Setup will extract all its contents under C:\Program Files (x86)\MSECache
folder.
Once
extracted, you will see the following screen. Click {Install software
prerequisites}
Click
[Run the program without getting help]
This
screen contains all the information of prerequisites requirements, note: we do
not need to install – Hotfix for Microsoft Windows [KB976462] (This is for
Win2K8). Stop here and install prerequisites one by one.
Step2 – Install Prerequisites
Open
Server Manager > Click Manage > Add Roles and Features
Click [Skip this page by default] then Click Next
[Role-base or feature-based installation] already selected, just click Next
Click Next
Select [Application Server] Select [Web Server] make sure to select its entire features in next screen then click Next to install
Once Application and IIS roles and features installation completed, again open Server Manager > Click Manage > Click Add Roles and Features > Select .Net Framework 3.5 Features (make sure to select its entire features to install) Click Next to install. You have to provide Win2K12 source path to install this feature, in my case source path was D:\sources\sxs as shown in image below.
Once .Net Framework 3.5 features installation completed, again open Server Manager > click Manage > Add Roles and Features > select Windows Identity Foundation 3.5 to install
We have completed (Roles and Features)
installation section of perquisites.
Now we’ll move to next section of
prerequisites which we have already downloaded from the internet, we’ll
manually install remaining perquisites one by one.
This is our prerequisites download folder,
you can see here; we have downloaded, stored and renamed all prerequisites:
Installing
Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Native Client
Installing Microsoft Sync Framework Runtime
v1.0
Installing Microsoft Chart Controls
Installing Microsoft SQL Server 2008
Analysis Services ADOMD.NET
Installing Microsoft Server Speech Platform
Runtime
Installing Microsoft Server Speech
Recognition Language - TELE (en-US)
Installing
SQL 2008 R2 Reporting Services SharePoint 2010 Add-in
Copy
ServerManagerCmd.exe to C:\Windows\System32
Finally,
we have completed all prerequisites installation.
Now get
back to the screen where we stopped SharePoint installation due to
prerequisites. Click Next
Click [I
accept the terms of the License Agreement(s)] Click Next. This will take few
minutes to verify the prerequisites.
If
you have installed all prerequisites as we have mentioned above then everything
will be okay except (Speech recognition language) which we have installed but due
to incompatibility with Windows 2012 this will create an error as shown in
image below. Fortunately this is an optional package which can be skipped so
click Finish to finish the prerequisites check.
Above step was the last prerequisites step.
Step3 – Install SharePoint 2010
Now
Click [Install SharePoint Server] to start the installation setup
Enter
your serial key and click [Continue]
Click [I
accept the terms of this agreement] click [Continue]
Click
[Standalone] to proceed
Installation
process is started; this will take several minutes to complete.
Installation
completed.
Click
[Close] to run configuration wizard
Configuration
wizard started, click [Next]
This
will ask your permission to perform further task, click [Yes]
You
can see configuration wizard failed as shown in image below. This is due to
wrong information under [Internet Information Services] Application Pools.
Click [Finish] to close this screen.
To resolve
above error go to [Control Panel] > [Administrative Tools] > [Internet
Information Services (IIS) Manager]
Click
[Application Pools] click [Set Application Pool Defaults]
Modify
[.NET CLR Version] from v4.0 to v2.0 and [Start Mode] from OnDemand to
AlwaysRunning and Click [OK]
Start
[SharePoint Configuration Wizard] again to complete the remaining configuration
tasks.
You can
see configuration wizard started again to complete its remaining tasks
This
time configuration completed successfully as shown in image below. Click
[Finish] to finish last step of SharePoint installation.
As you
can see, SharePoint Central Administration Web GUI automatically opened. From
here we can manage our SharePoint server. Feel free to create, edit and publish
whatever you’d like to.
That's all what you need to do.
