Always Install MSMQ on OCS Servers!

by Jamie Schwinn on June 2, 2009

MVP Aaron Tiensivu wrote a blog post about an issue that surfaces when installing April 2009 updates on OCS 2007 R2. If you don’t have MSMQ (Messaging Queueing) installed prior to installing KB967831, the patch installation will fail leaving you with a broken OCS environment. To mitigate this, install MSMQ prior to installing the April 2009 OCS 2007 R2 updates. Aaron provides the following information regarding installing MSMQ:

With Server 2008, you can run ServerManagerCmd -i MSMQ-Services and ServerManagerCmd -i MSMQ-Server.
With Server 2003 x64, it is a little more complex as an automation task but can be done using the details mentioned here.
