W2K8 SP2 and SQL Server 2008 Express supported?

‎07-06-2009 06:46 PM

Hello--

I am preparing to install BES 5 for the first time. I just completed installing the OS, Windows Server 2008 Ent. Ed. 64-bit. I am wondering the following:

1. Is SP2 for Windows Server 2008 supported? Are there any known issues with BES 5?

2. It looks as though SQL Server 2008 Express Ed. 2008 (64-bit) is not currently supported by RIM. However, I saw another post in this forum stating that RIM T Support said SQL 2008 Exp. IS supported under BES 5 MR1? Is this correct?

Thanks in advance.

Look at the compatability chart.

I heard the same on SQL 2008 being supported but can not find a KB on it.
