BES 4.1 is old, and I don't think it supports SQL 2008. BES 5.x should work fine however.

  • but all BES 5.x have there prerequisite,like MS Exchange sever,etc. Is it possible to use push service on BES without these Prerequisite,as I think they deal with requirements related to emails,and my requirement is just send a message to push enabled client,I am very new to BB development,so might be going wrong some where,Will be glad if someone correct me. Thanx – Ashish Agarwal Oct 08 '10 at 08:42

    While the BES components can be installed separately on different machines, they all work together as a whole. A BES MDS connection server does you no good without the other components. – joeqwerty Oct 08 '10 at 16:38
  • @joeqwetry:Thanx for the Reply.So in that case, I guess 3 option left BES with Exchange server or Novell or Dommino. Can you please suggest me which is better for Push service.I have 32 bit Windows Vista as OS so I guess in that enviorment I will not be able to use Exchange server,Now which is better Novell or Dommion?? Hope for a help – Ashish Agarwal Oct 08 '10 at 16:52
