I just installed MOSS 2007 with service pack 2 on Windows 2008 R2 SP 1. When provisioning the server I am getting the following error.

system.argumentoutofrangeexception index was out of range

I have the enterprise version and I did a stand-alone install. I am using SQL Server version 2005 SP 4. Do I need to install Windows 2008 instead of trying to use Windows 2008 R2? Please advise.

You should be aware of MOSS RTM or MOSS with SP1 is not supported on Windows Server 2008 R2. Meanwhile MOSS 2007 SP2 is supported on Windows Server 2008 R2.

So make sure that you have Sharepoint Server (MOSS) with Service Pack 2 to be able to install it on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1.

  • 2005 express which comes with the install. I installed SP 4. I initially tried to use your second guide but I was unable to perform the install with the WSS files in the update folder. When I did I got the error the product id specified was not found on this machine. Could this be why it isn't working?

  • I'd try to download the MOSS 2007 + SP2 and try that install without slipstreaming

Installing MOSS 2007 with Service Pack 2 fixed the issue.

Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 Trial Version (x64)

I was able to find the link for the 32-bit version but it is no longer available.
