Dear,

We have bought a licence for Endpoint Protection Plus for a server under Windows Server 2008 R2. According to https://www.avast.com/fr-fr/endpoint-protection-plus this should work :

Configuration matérielle minimale requise :
256 Mo de RAM ou plus, 512 Mo ou plus avec le serveur Microsoft Windows Server 2008 ou supérieur (dépend des exigences de la configuration requise par la version du système d’exploitation utilisé et d’autres logiciels installés).

When I’m trying to install it (setup_av_epp.exe), it says that my OS is not supported :

Do I miss something ?

Thanks for your help,

You need the AEP Suite
And for the suite you need to have SP2 installed.

Operating system: Windows Server 2008 R2 ver 6.1, build 7601, sp 1.0 [Service Pack 1] SERVER x64

For a Server you need Avast Endpoint Protection Suite Plus.
