Instructions

To install this download:

Note: To complete the following installation, you must have Administrator rights to both the Windows SharePoint Services site and to the root of the server on which it is to be installed.

Download the file by clicking the Download button (above) and saving the file to your server.
Double-click the program file on your hard disk to extract the template files to a location on the server.
In the extracted files, double-click GBW.msi to install the GroupBoard Workspace 2007 template.

Note: If your Windows SharePoint Services deployment is configured using host header mode, managed path or a port number other than 80, you need to specify the "SITEURL" option in the GroupBoard Workspace setup. This option is only available when you run setup from a command prompt. To run setup with the "SITEURL" option, open a command prompt and type Msiexec.exe /i GBW.msi SITEURL=http://<SharePointURL>/ where "SITEURL" is your top level site URL that you are installing the GroupBoard Workspace template on.

For example, if the site is using port 8888, the managed path is "/sites", and the top level site is accessible as "http: //WSS:8888/Sites/abc/", you would specify the SITEURL option as: Msiexec.exe /i GBW.msi SITEURL=http://WSS:8888/Sites/abc/
