Microsoft announced earlier this year that PerformancePoint Server was not going to be released in a stand alone version, instead it would be bundled with Microsoft Office Sharepoint Server Enterprise Edition in future releases. They confirmed that Service Pack 3 is going to be made available for the current version of PerformancePoint software.
If you are planning on installing PerformancePoint Server 2007 on Windows Server 2008, SQL Server 2008 and MOSS 2007, you should read the following, as it will save you loads of time when you need to troubleshoot the installation.
The following redistributable files are required to pass the pre-requisite check on installation. Ensure that you do all of the installation below before running the Monitoring Server Configuration Manager.
The following files are part of the Feature Pack for Microsoft SQL Server 2005 and can be found here.
Next you are going to need to install the Ajax Extensions found here: ASPAJAXExtSetup.msi
Finally you will need to install service pack 2 for Performance Point Server found here
One of the indications that the installation did not complete correctly the first time was an error message that appeared creating a new data source in the Dashboard Designer. Even though I knew the SQL credentials were correct, the test failed with the following message.
If you are unable to connect to the external data source, try calling the web service directly using http://localhost:40000/WebService/PmService.asmx. This failed with the following error message:
The page must have a <%@ webservice ...="" class="MyNamespace.MyClass"%> directive.
