Unable to install BP 2011 with SP2013

Hello all,

I am running SL 2011 SP3 on Windows Server 2012 R2 with SQL Server 2014. I have another Windows server running SharePoint Foundation 2013. I am attempting to install Business Portal 2011 FP1 for SP2013. During installation, one screen asks me to select a site collection with which to associate the Business Portal. If I configure a site collection to run as SharePoint 2013 user experience (theme), the site collection is available in the combo box, but the installer later fails with an error message which tells me to configure the site collection to run as SharePoint 2010 user experience (theme). If I configure a new site collection to run as SharePoint 2010, it does not appear in the combo box for association.

The only hotfixes I see related to Business Portal which may help are in regards to Windows Server, not SharePoint Foundation 2013.

Has anyone come across this issue?

Thanks for your help!

Thank you for the prompt response. I have verified the conditions specified in the KB article and unfortunately still see the same issue.

For anyone reading this, the article (KB947927) is not downloadable software but rather a list of items to check in order to troubleshoot this issue.

Take a look at KB 947927. It's for an older BP version, but it still applies.
