This article applies in a situation when you don’t have internet access in your SharePoint server , I have placed all the direct download links for the installers you might need.

This article assumes you are having a new fresh installation of windows server 2008 R2 SP1

If you tried to run the installer , The following should be installed (but you cant install them directly from here since you don’t have internet)

in this case  you can download and install SharePoint 2013 Prerequisites offline and run them manually as below:

I have placed what needs to be installed on a clean Window server R2 SP1 , you should not need more than this:

Prerequisite Direct Link

Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5

(Full Stand alone package)

http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=225702

Or

Download tFx45_Full_x86_x64.exe from stand alone section from

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/5a4x27ek.aspx

Windows Management Framework 3.0

http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkID=224449

Windows Server AppFabric

http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=235496 

(Note: don’t install WindowsServerAppFabricSetup_x64_6.1 this is not the correct version that

SharePoint installer seeks)

 

Download it but don’t install it by yourself since it needs configuration, hence install all other

prerequisites in this article (except this one) then let the prerequisite installer to install AppFabric

and configure it manually for you by running the following command from command prompt:

prerequisiteInstaller.exe /appfabric:[Full AppFabric Installer path]

  • Thanks. You explain it well :)

  • Hi, I am having a problem with the execution of the prerequisiteinstaller.exe.
    If I am executing C:\sp2013\PrerequisiteInstaller.exe /SQLNCli: "C:\sp2013\PrerequisiteInstallerFiles\sqlncli.msi" the Setup Window opens and list all "roles and programs", which will be installed in the normal setup case.
    If I am executing C:\sp2013\PrerequisiteInstaller.exe /SQLNCli: "C:\sp2013\PrerequisiteInstallerFiles\sqlncli" without the program ending the Setup Window opens and shows error. The log says " Error: Custom file location is not accessible". Ok this is normal.
    So at first I thought the parameter to install only SQLNClient was ignored, because the usual setup window opens, but with the second command it shows an error, as it should. So the parameter was not ignored.
    What is my mistake? Does anybody have an idea how to solve it?
    best regards,
    Stephan

  • Forget to mention, Iam using Win Server Std 2012 R2 and trying to install Sahrepoint Foundation 2013 manually.
    maybe it is important

  • thanks, nice info. on the point.

  • Good info though, still facing issue with AppFabric installation

  • Thanks for this information. I have just signed up for a free SharePoint 2013 site with http://www.cloudappsportal.com

  • What kind of idiots came up with this prerequisite fiasco with Sharepoint 2013?

  • It's a good article but out of date (July 2014). SPS 2013 expects WCF Data Services 5.6. Struggle on....

  • thanks, nice post

  • Thanks, very helpful ;)

  • Thank you. This was a big help to me :)

  • use the below link to download share point server full packages with all prerequisite
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/evaluate-sharepoint-server-2013

  • that works fine for me thanx

  • Not quite clear on how this works, so I am asking the following question:

    Are these downloaded files either place in the directory of the Preinstallprequsite.exe? and/or do you have to provide a path for the downloaded files as and option for the "PrequisiteInstaller.exe".

  • Hi everyone!


    I've been for about 6 hours around issues with AppFabric on Windows 2012 R2, for SharePoint 2013 and after several try / catch, i found something that work out.


    Try-out, regional settings (english US, United States), FTP Service Stopped, and Windows Update running while PSModulePath=C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0 finally worked for me.

    I could run everything from ISO (prerequirements install).


    Thanks
