I've got a server running the evaluation copy of Windows Server 2008 (Longhorn) and I've tried to set up Exchange 2007 Trial on this OS but it keeps failing at the Readiness Checks part of setup.
The error message in full reads:
Exchange 2007 cannot be used with the version of Windows operating system running on this computer
Yet I've seen posts in this newsgroup from people requesting help for configuration issues with Exchange 2007 on a Longhorn box, so they have clearly installed Exchange 2007 without any immediate installation issues.
Are there any reasons why I can't?
You have to slipstream the Exchange 2007 SP1 beta into the RTM. You
can then install Exchange onto Windows Server 2008.
Ah, but, it's not all a bed of roses:
