SYMPTOMS
Site Server version 3.0, Commerce Edition fails to successfully install over Microsoft BackOffice Server version 4.5.



CAUSE
Site Server version 3.0, Commerce Edition requires the SendSMTP, EncodeMIME, and SMime components that are part of the MimeOLE components, which are installed with Microsoft Outlook Express. However, Microsoft Outlook Express is not installed because Backoffice Server 4.5 Setup performs a minimal install of Internet Explorer rather than the standard installation. Outlook Express is only installed with the full or standard installations.



WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, install the full or standard version of the latest version of Internet Explorer.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Site Server 3.0. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
