Installing a FAB40 Application Template in SharePoint 2010

Even if you are not intending to upgrade an existing site template, you can still install a FAB40 site template on a SharePoint 2010 server. Just to reiterate, by FAB40, we refer to those site templates made available by Microsoft for SharePoint 2007 deployments. At the time of writing this book, Microsoft has not made provision to upgrade those site templates for SharePoint 2010 deployments.

Note

FAB40 site templates—including Room and Equipment Reservations (used in the following example), Bug Database, and the applicationtemplatecore file (which must be installed prior to installing the FAB40 site templates)—can be downloaded from http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/windowsserver/sharepoint/bb407286.aspx ...
