New Cumulative Update for SharePoint Released

Monday, March 9, 2009

A new cumulative update for SharePoint (actually one for WSS and another one for MOSS) has been released.

Request the WSS one (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/961755) from http://support.microsoft.com/hotfix/KBHotfix.aspx?kbnum=961755&kbln=en-us and the MOSS one (no details page yet) from http://support.microsoft.com/hotfix/KBHotfix.aspx?kbnum=961756&kbln=en-us. A link will be sent to the e-mail address you indicate.

Requirements are just WSS SP1 and MOSS SP1. These updates include all other updates released since SP1.

You should install first the WSS update and then the MOSS one. Afterwards, run

psconfig -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b –force

We had problems on some servers after installing this update. Don't apply these updates directly to live sites before testing them in test environment.

Hi, DigiMortal, thanks for your feedback!
I haven't tested it myself, and, honestly, I won't do this on production servers, but I will try it on my VM.
