BES 4.1.4 uninstall & reinstall
Hello
The Exchange server that I had my BES and Exchange 2003 on lost it's RAID partition where the installation and data was stored. I was able to create a new partion (unsable to recover the old) and did a restore of Exchange pri & pub and that works fine as far as I can tell.
I have tried to get BES working but unable since the install folder is gone. I tried reinstalling over top of itself but keep getting the only option listed for the database location as being remote and cant create a new location locally. I have tried uninstalling it through Add/Remove to see if that would resolve but the remote location problem but keep getting Error 1316 a network error occurred while attempting to read from the file c:\windows\installer\black
I have tried deleting folders associated with RIM installation and even tried the keys also - no change.
Thoughts??

Why dont you simply try to keep the msi file in that location.. so your saying you Uninstalled and try Install ? As if not i would try this rather Re-install

The msi was corrupted as in original post "Error 1316 a network error occurred while attempting to read from the file c:\windows\installer\black

when tried to reinstall over top of itself it would fail also since couldn't find original files.
If i force uninstall and Install why would it look for older files data ? .... this is what i am trying to say. Also check after you Uninstall if there is any Registry for BlackBerry on the server

I could not reinstall in the first place. Only way to get working was to get clean and install back clean.
