When installing language pack there is thing you need to know. And that is the order in which to install.

Seems that microsoft is not using the same update functionality as in other updates.
meaning: with most updates it’s sufficient to update only the last service pack, which usually includes all updates.
For example: when installing a new Sharepoint server, and you need to install SP2, you don’t have to install SP1 first.

So what’s the catch with language packs.

Simple: you always install the base installation before installing a service pack.
Say , i would like to install the dutch language pack on my newly installed Sharepoint server (SP2).

1.  
   1. Install the wss language pack
   2. Install the wss laguange pack SP2
   3. Install the Moss language pack
   4. Install the Moss language pack SP2

If you know the routine it’s simple, but it is sometimes nice to know the routine.

One thing i haven’t checked out.
Do i need to run the Configuration manager after every update, or only ones at the end of all 4 updates?
If someone knows, please let me know
