Installing SharePoint 2010 SP1

****  Key Points to Remember while installing SP1 for Sharepoint ****

=>  The packages may require up to four times their file size in remaining disk space during installation
      So make sure that you have sufficient disk space

=> Restart the computer at the end of the installation.

=> If you are using Office Web Apps in a mixed version environment, where Office Web Apps has SP1-or-later applied while SharePoint Server 2010 remains on the RTM version, you must install the following two updates before you install SP1 for Office Web Apps:

    • 2510639  (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2510639/ )
    • 2510648  (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2510648/ )
  • Install the service packs in the following order on every server in the farm:
    1. Service Pack 1 for SharePoint Foundation 2010
    2. Service Pack 1 for SharePoint Foundation 2010 Language Pack (if applicable)
    3. Service Pack 1 for SharePoint Server 2010
    4. Service Pack 1 for SharePoint Server 2010 Language Pack (if applicable)
  • After installing Service Pack 1 you must run the SharePoint 2010 Products Configuration Wizard Just incase it fails or there are any issues .

    Run the Command : psconfig –cmd upgrade –inplace b2b -wait

    One time on every server in the farm. This step updates the farm to the latest version and is required in order to have full SharePoint functionality. If you do not run the wizard, the farm will run with reduced capacity. i.e; Search will not be able to index content

    You must restart the User Profile Synchronization service after installing Service Pack 1

  • After the SP1 is installed, the Workflow feature is disabled when a new site collection is created. To use the Workflow feature in a new site collection, enable it in the Site Collection Settings page.



  • After you are done it is strongly recommend that you install the install the June 2011 Cumulative Update refresh package.


  • The June Cumulative Update includes several important security and bug fixes that are not included Service Pack 1.
