Just downloading sharepoint with SP1 so time for a quick little bloggette.

I don't have a lot of hair left so I refuse to tear any more out. 

After failing to be able to create projects on the Foundation server and messing with the security settings so much that the server was pretty shafted I've stripped everything off to start again. 

I’ve stripped everything off with the exception of SQL server.  I may have to evaluate if reporting services needs re-installing.  Hope not because the disk isn't in the server. 

I thought I was quite competent at this type of thing but experiences like this make you question your own ability to follow simple instructions.

I followed the Team Foundation installation to the letter, or so that's what I thought.

It just happened that when I downloaded Sharepoint services the version with SP2 included had just been released.  Well that's, I believe, where I shafted myself. 

I have then noticed the following blog

http://blogs.msdn.com/robcaron/archive/2005/10/07/478336.aspx relating to differences with SP2 version of Sharepoint.  Here is another article regarding the changes with SP2 http://support.microsoft.com/?id=832769

I'm not going to try and tweek with SP2 but I'm downloading the SP1 version

Watch this space to see how I get on and bring some tissues to wipe my tears.
