When is going to be expired MCITP Windows 2008 Server?

Hello,
I would like to know until when is going to be possible to do MCITP Windows 2008 Server exams.
Some time ago I read on http://www.microsoft.com/learning/en/us/retired-certifications.aspx  that the certifications will going to be expired on July 31 of 2013.  But nowdays it doesn`t appear anything on the web.
Many thanks
Regards

Hi, Roberto.
The MCITP: Server Administrator on Windows Server 2008 certification seems to have vanished from the web site. It is not listed with the other MCITP certifications and yet is not listed as a retired certification.
The MCITP: Enterprise Administrator on Windows Server 2008
certification is not scheduled to retire any time soon. It requires you to pass five (5) exams, explained here:
https://www.microsoft.com/learning/en-us/mcitp-certification.aspx#item-ID0EDAAAABCA
Alternately, you can earn the MCSA: Windows Server 2008 certification, which requires you to pass three (3) exams. It is explained here:
https://www.microsoft.com/learning/en-us/mcsa-windows-server-2008-certification.aspx
After earning either of these two (2) titles, you can easily upgrade to the new
MCSE: Server Infrastructure certification by passing just two (2) more exams, explained here:
https://www.microsoft.com/learning/en-us/mcse-server-infrastructure-certification.aspx#upgrade
Good luck!
Best wishes, Davin Mickelson

  • Windows 2008 Server and HP Color LaserJet 2605dn Driver Issue when Sharing Printer

    I have a HP Color LaserJet 2605dn printer that I need to setup on a Windows 2008 server.  I need the server to act as a Print server, but I have been unable to get any drivers to load other than the 64 Bit Universal drivers.  Because most of the company uses XP (32 and 64 bit), I also need to load those drivers under additional drivers; however, I have been unable to load them, when I point to the INF file (any of the 10 that unzip from the driver package), it says it is not for this printer.  I have even tried the generic 32 bit PS and it says the same thing.  Any ideas on what I am doing incorrectly or where to get the drivers that I need?
    Thanks,
    Gary

    Hello, I have the same problem. For the 2605 Printer is only the universal print driver available. Is seems that HP is to be lazy about making new 2008 driver.

  • Error connecting to the SAP SRV on Windows 2008 Server platform

    Hi All
    We have a problem with one of our clients they bought a new sbs windows server 2008 and we loaded sql 2005 and sap b1 SP01 PL07.
    When we did the SBO install we experience connection issues and we created odbc connection on the server using named pipes and tcp/ip (used both server name and Ip address).
    We also configured the server in configuration manager and we managed to login and solved the slow system connection issue. We also created odbc connection on the client machines. (Machine are on a workgroup and users have administration access on all machines),we also installed native client on all machines.
    After the first batch of client installs we managed to have connection, they were other computers which were left out during the first client install and now the client want to do the remaining machines connected to SBO. On every machine that we install now we get the same error :-
    *Connection failed:

    Hi Eric,
    yes we are using Windows 2008 SBS for the SAP EHP4 FOR SAP ERP 6.0/NW7.01 installation.
    we tried to create the key but it says access is denied.
    Actual thing is we got the server with Windows 2008 server 64 bit SBS (standard FE) with Domain Controller (DC) configuration.
    We have removed the DC using dcpromo to convert into Wokgroup and tried the SAP installation.
    I hope you got the idea and please let me know any further suggestions or it is the problem with the license.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Windows 2008 Server R2 - Service Pack 1 Failed to install

    A few nights ago I deployed Service Pack 1 for Windows 2008 Server R2 x64.  The update failed to install after 3 attempts using the Windows Update manager.  After the third time I checked the system properties which states that SP1 is
    installed, yet it never appeared to install successfully as my other server machine had a prompt stating the SP was installed successfully. 
    In update history it shows the 3 failed attempts with no successes.  This morning I began running into memory errors which are impacting my 2 VM Ware sessions which in turn lock up my virtual machine so I am going to attempt to remove and reinstall
    to see if this corrects my issue.  By the way what triggered the install of SP1 is random reboots of my server.  This is that unknown Kernal Power Error which I have yet to resolve.  Some months my server randomly reboots one time and other
    months 4-5x.  That is neither here nor there, the point of this discussion is to resolve SP1. 
    I have tried to remove SP1 by means of Control Panel, Programs and Features, Installed Updates.  So it shows the that the SP1 installed in multiple areas yet in the install history no signs of successful installation.
    When trying to uninstall from Program and Features/Installed Updates section in control panel it cycles through like its going to uninstall, but after several minutes I receive the following error      Windows Update     
    An error has occurred. Not all of the updates were successfully uninstalled.
    When trying to uninstall from the command prompt (as administrator) "wusa.exe /uninstall /kb:976932" I get the following popup            Windows Update Standalone Installer        
    Installer encountered an error: 0x80073712       The component store has been corrupted.
    Now if I try and install through the network installer file name "windows6.1-KB976932-X64.exe" I get "Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 is already installed"
    I performed these steps in the order mentioned which I came across this "System Update Readiness Tool for Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 Edition (KB947821) [February 2011]" After applying this hotfix I went through the same steps as mentioned above with the
    exact same results.
    It is unfortuante I did not come across this hotfix before I attempted install SP1 as it appears as if this would have prepared the system for SP1 installation.  Currently I am in limbo with a corrupt installation of SP1 and so far no means of uninstalling
    short of a reinstallation or repair of the OS which I am not willing to do at this point in time.
    If anyone has any suggestions please chime in and let me know what I can try.  Thanks for all the support and hopefully this post will help others in the future.

    Maybe a little bit late, but I was running almost same problem on a exchange server.
    Scenario:
    First attempt to Update the windows patches - excluded the patches from the last 2 months.
    I was kind a new to this, and didnt noticed that Windows Service pack must have at least 8GB free disk space.(Recommended)
    So the C:\ partition had less then 5 GB free disk space, and I started the updates.
    All went well until Windows SP1 begun running to downloading and installing.
    When the installer noticed there wasnt enough space, It stopped, it give the status Failed, en when scaling up the C:\partition with another 10GB more space, the C:\partition had 18GB free disk space.
    Tried to Call up a new attemp to install the SP1... but with no succes to start the SP1 installation...
    I tried to reinstall but the windows update didnt get offered again to install again or resume or anything to try again...
    Maybe...it is handy for Mickysoft, to check before installing, so the install wont get corrupted, and can install when c:\ partition has enough disk space.
    What was the trick:
    1) Stop the windows Update Service
    2) C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\DataStore - Delete content
    3) C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download - Delete content
    4) Windows update Service check if its runs again
    5) Check again for windows updates - Check if Windows Server Service pack 1 is offered, and install reboot and youre good to go.
    It works for me :) hopefully after 3 years you had found a solution, but since I was poping for a solution and found this article with no solution.
    I tought it will be hopefull for others to respond to this article with a solution.
    Kind regards,

  • Install windows 2008 server r2 as a vm on windows 8.1 pro

    I am trying to install windows 2008 server r2 as a vm on an asus I7 4th gen. on windows 8 pro. It goes
    thru the install untill completing install and gives error the computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unxpexted error windows installation cannot proceed click ok to restart. I do the shift f10 and change the registery to force finsh the install.
    It boots up but when I try to do anything. It goes into  netio.sys BSOD issue

    I haven't run into that problem, but when setting up the OS, just
    remove the NIC from the settings, do the install, make sure it's running, then install the integration
    services, reboot, then add the NIC back in. 
    You could also use a legacy network adapter if that doesn't work.
     In any case I'm trying an install of Win2008R2 right now so I can see if I get the same problem...

  • CF9 install on Windows 2008 Server R2

    Hi everyone I've installed Cold Fusion 9 on my windows 2008 Server r2 box and everything appears to be configured correctly becuase I can get to the Cold Fusion 9 Administrator page just fine. I've looked within IIS 7.5 and it's recognizing the .cfm file I think becuase it's an option under default documents. However I try to view the file from the local host I get a error 500.0.
      Module
    IsapiModule
      Notification
    ExecuteRequestHandler
      Handler
    AboMapperCustom-77246
      Error Code
    0x800700c1
    I have no idea what that mapper is or what it's supposed to do so if anyone could help me out I would be eternally grateful! Why oh why couldnt cold fusion 9 have native IIS support in it.
    UPDATE
    Apparently this error 500.0 gets applied to all my sites within IIS 7.5. Not just the one I intend to use .cfm files on. When I go into the web configuration tool and remove the configured webservers and restart everything goes back to normal but the .cfm files throw a 404.3 not found error for the following module.

  • Installing CF8.0.1 64 on Windows 2008 Serv

    Does anyone have a set of instructions on installing CF8.0.1
    64bit on Windows 2008 Server. I have tried on and off for the last
    two weeks and have made no progress. The install goes great,
    however the CF administrator component of the install fails with a
    HTTP Error 500.0 - Internal Server Error. IIS7 worked fine prior to
    coldfusion installation, however once CF 8.0.1 gets installed IIS7
    appears to break. I've read the other thread in the forum and the
    suggestions made there don't help or have already been done.
    Module IsapiModule
    Notification ExecuteRequestHandler
    Handler AboMapperCustom-72626
    Error Code 0x800700c1
    Most likely causes:
    - IIS received the request; however, an internal error
    occurred during the processing of the request. The root cause of
    this error depends on which module handles the request and what was
    happening in the worker process when this error occurred.
    - IIS was not able to access the web.config file for the Web
    site or application. This can occur if the NTFS permissions are set
    incorrectly.
    -IIS was not able to process configuration for the Web site
    or application.
    -The authenticated user does not have permission to use this
    DLL.
    -The request is mapped to a managed handler but the .NET
    Extensibility Feature is not installed.
    Things to try (from the error summary page)
    - Ensure that the NTFS permissions for the web.config file
    are correct and allow access to the Web server's machine account.
    - Check the event logs to see if any additional information
    was logged.
    - Verify the permissions for the DLL.
    - Install the .NET Extensibility feature if the request is
    mapped to a managed handler.
    - Create a tracing rule to track failed requests for this
    HTTP status code.
    Adobe in going to expect a $6700 check from me in another
    week or so and the damn thing doesn't install to the point where
    the demo's will run. Windows 2008 and IIS7 isn't that new and I
    can't imagine that the number of people having done this is limited
    to the one or two in this forum and that there is no technote avail
    to us that have to depend on internet support and published
    technotes that can document the installation procedure of CF 8.0.1
    64bit on windows 2008.
    It's the fourth of July and this is a fine place to be.
    Happy 4th everyone!

  • Bank Statement management in SAP B1 on a VMWare Windows 2008 server

    Hi everybody,
    One of our customer is using a VMWare Windows 2008 server with SAP B1.
    Actual version of Business One is SBO 2007A PL 00 PL 15 (SQL Server 2005).
    Since the installation of this server using VMWare, we encouter problems using the SAP B1 Integration Platform for the process of the bank statements.
    Everything including bank statements transfer was working very fine on a "real" server before new implementation.
    When trying to open the Integration Platform Control Center on the server, we now receive the following message regarding JAVA.
    "JAVA Virtual Machine Launcher : could not find the main class : program will exit."
    JAVA is well installed on the VMWare server.
    We have searched for a solution on the Web and it seems that JAVA and VMWare are not compatible. Does anybody have any information about that ?
    Does anybody already have this problem with Integration Platfom on VMWare server ?
    Is there a solution to our problem ?
    Thanks for all your contributions.
    Best regards.
    Michel

    Hi Michel,
    First of all, your PL is too low.  AFAIK, the first supported PL for 2007A SP00 is PL30.  You may upgrade your PL first to see if that is a bug or not.
    Thanks,

  • Crystal Reports 2011 not working in windows 2008 server CITRIX

    Hi All,
    We are using  Crystal reports 2011 in windows 2008 server which is CITRIX farm., having crystal reports 2011 runtime in it..
    We are using .net applicationton to run the reports.
    The crystal reports parameter popup is getting opened. But the calendar icon is not fuctioning ..clicking on the calendar control no pop up appears. no error too..
    OK button is not responding. Cancel button too.
    Can you please help us why we are facing this issue in CITRIX only. When we are using the same version in desktop, Crystal report is working fine.
    Please feel free to ask if required any more details about my problem.
    Regards,
    Venkat.K

    Ido's idea is excellent, only addition I'd like to make is the following:
    You are trying to run a .NET app. However, CR 2011 does not install any SDKs. So, the directory specified by Ido is not correct. Assuming that by CR 2011 you actually mean "SAP Crystal Reports, Developer Version for Visual Studio .NET", then the directory would be:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\Common\Crystal Reports 2011\crystalreportviewers\prompting
    If that does not help, use Process Monitor and see what the logs tell you (look for Access Denied messages).

  • Windows 2008 Server crashed - How to find location of remote shared files that they used to access on remote web app?

    We have a client that was running windows 2008 server.  A previous IT person had setup their system, so we were walking into a situation where there were many unknowns.  Server was mainly handling emails only, and we were able to get their exchange
    database off and export PSTs to hosted exchange via microsoft.
    Everything went fine with that, however one user said that he used to access files on the server via the remote web app as he described.  He would go to the following url:
    https://mail.theirdomain.com/remote/menu.aspx#
    and he would use his login and then he would see several links to folders.  He could then click on those and see his desired files.  
    We were able to get the server booted again, however we could not find any of the files he described on it at all, leaving me to suspect that perhaps this remote link was accessing another PC.  
    We have the old server up and running, however the link above is no longer active because we have pointed the domain to the new hosted exchange server.  As I am still learning and my boss wanted me to research this on my own and figure out how to find
    out where these files are located.  Any advice would be greatly appreciated.  
    Just as a note I did try access mail.localhost.com/remote/menu.aspx# on the server but this did not work.  Is there any way in the IIS 7 management console to figure out where this was pointing to?  

    I figured it out - The server was using sharepoint to host these files.  I browsed localhost:987 and opened the sharepoint site locally on the server.  They had several documents to be exported, however when clicking on Open in Explorer it was
    giving an error that local client was not configured.  I installed Desktop Experience and after that was able to open it in Windows Explorer and copy all files off.  

  • Windows 2008 Server R2 not loading Desktop

    Hi All,

    If you see USERPROFILE=C:\Users\administrator.000 (or similar) then the original local administrator profile was corrupt or otherwise orphaned.
    In days past one could create a new account with local administrative rights, logon with new account, then after saving off docs, etc. from corrupt/abandoned profiles use
    Control Panel|Users and Passwords and delete the old profile stores. Then when you next logon a new profile is created from an image in

  • Windows 2008 server OS authenticated user keeps failing

    I have a new server that has windows 2008 server installed, 64-bit. I've installed oracle 11gR2 64-bit and have created my database. Now I need to create two oracle accounts that are OS authenticated and I can't seem to get this right. I've set os_authent_prefix in my spfile and I've created the user (example) OS$<domain>\<username> in the database. In Windows, the account name equals <username> and that account belongs to Administrators and ora_dba groups. I've tried creating the oracle user with <domain> in caps and lowercase, but both fail. On the server, the domain is all lower case.
    So in SQL> create user "OS$my.domain.mil\user1" identified externally; (user created)
    Grant connect to "OS$my.domain.mil\user1";
    Log out of sqlplus, pull up command prompt in Windows 2008 server as 'user1' and type in "sqlplus /"
    Invalid username or password.
    What am I missing here? Any help appreciated.
    SA feedback: "Finally, Windows Server 2008 R2 Operating System has a tighter security scheme than that of previous Windows OS.

    Hello Ricardo,
    You may want to reference SAP Note 1054740 - SAP System Installation on Windows Server 2008
    and ensure you are on SAP Netweaver 7.0 SR3 or above, and it will also tell you if the product you are installing is supported in Windows 2008 Server.
    For database and SAP product combinations that are already
    supported by SAP to run on Windows Server 2008, see the Product
    Availability Matrix at: http://service.sap.com/pam
    Also check the following: in Regedit.
    SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\gpsvc
    Right click on it and select "Permissions" in the context menu.
    Provide "Full Control" for sidadm
    Does the installation user has full administrative rights and belongs
    to the group of LocalAdministrators and to Global Administrators also
    when you are doing a domain installation ?
    Please ensure the user <sid>adm has the access rights
    to change the file system permission.

  • Windows 2008 Server R2 & SAP Business One

    Does anyone have any experience, good or bad, with SAP Business One and Terminal Service on Windows 2008 Server R2?  We are finding a number of issues with this configuration and we are looking for any feedback that is out there.
    Here is the situation - our customer is running SAP Business One v2007 SP01 PL09 Hotfix4 on a Windows 2008 Server R2 machine.  All users (15 max) access SBO via Terminal Service to this machine, which also holds the databases (SQL Server 2005).  The machine currently has 20GB of RAM.
    What we are finding is:
    1) When any process related to SBO (SBO core or add-ons) consumes some portion of memory, none of that memory is ever released back to the O/S until SBO is completely closed.  So over the course of a day each user ends up simply consuming more and more memory as forms are opened for transactions.  While we do see this in Windows 2003 Server to some extent, at least some memory is released when a given form is closed.
    2) Once the system hits a point where around 75% of RAM is consumed the users start seeing application "hangs" and are forced to manually terminate SBO (via Task Manager) and restart.  There doesn't seem to be any paging or use of virtual memory (if my terms are right) in use.
    3) If the system is busy and a new window/form is opened the new window immediately (within one or two seconds) presents the "Not Responding" message on the new window.  Depending on the circumstances the application is simply waiting for resources and will continue opening normally.
    I would appreciate feedback from anyone who has experience with Windows 2008 Server R2; and especially using it for Terminal Services.  My personal feeling is that it is a platform that should be avoided but we would certainly like to hear what other folks have to say.
    Regards,

    I believe the supporting of this OS is still on Planned basis.  You may check with SAP support to give them a good user case to fight with any non-compatible issues.

  • Windows 2008 Server Configuration - Help

    Hello All,
    I am not an expert in configuring servers and I have just started to learn. Please forgive me if I am doing something funny!
    I have a router with static IP address and DHCP enabled on the router. The router had the following configuration as shown below and the clients were obtaining IP address from the router and using the internet without a problem.
    Router Configutaion:
    Basic Setting:
    IP Address : 122.165.60.160 (My Wan Static IP)
    IP Subnet Mask : 255.255.252.0
    Gateway IP: 122.165.60.1
    DNS Address:
    Primary DNS : 203.145.184.32
    Secondary DNS: 203.145.184.13
    Lan TCP/IP Setup:
    IP Address: 192.168.2.1 (Router IP)
    IP Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
    DHCP Enabled:
    Statring IP : 192.168.2.11 
    Ending IP: 192.168.2.100
    Now, I have installed Windows 2008 R2 Server with Active Directory, DNS and DHCP, IIS. I have created a few users and did nothing more than that in the server.
    Server IP Settings
    Server IP: 192.168.2.5
    Subnet : 255.255.255.0
    Gateway : 192.168.2.1
    DNS: 127.0.0.1
    And when I tried to join the domain i created... corp.globe.com the clients were not able to find the domain I therefore changed the following settings in the router.
    DNS Address:
    Primary DNS : 203.145.184.32
    Secondary DNS: 192.168.2.5 (Server IP)
    After this change the clients were able to join the domain and login as well. However the clients were getting the IP from the router. I am facing a lot of problems as listed below.
    1. I am not able to ping the clients using the computer name from the server.
    2. Clients cannot ping other clients or server using name. (Suppose if I try... PING SYS1 .... It looks like it is trying to ping some 92.x.x.xx IP address) even if SYS1 IP address is 192.168.2.13
    3. Clients can access Internet, but I cannot browse anything in the server.
    Please help me in the configuration, or point me to some guide which describes the same. I tried to set up and enable the DHCP server using Windows 2008 machine and I disabled it DHCP on the router, clients where able to get the IP address from Windows 2008
    server, but they were not able to use internet. Please advise.
    Thanks for your time.

    And you cannot ping the clients using the computer name from the server?
    Did you turn off the firewall on server and client?
    If you are having problems connecting to Active Directory and you have already successfully verified network connectivity, there might be a name resolution problem. For more and detail information, please refer to:
