Installing Exchange Pack for Reporting Services

Has anyone successfully installed the Exchange Pack for Reporting Services?
I've attempted a couple of times and continue to get "Object Reference not
set to an instance of object", which causes the install to rollback.
Does anyone know how to correct this problem?
This question was originally posted in 10\04, but there was never an answer
posted.Do you have a default instance of SQL Server? What OS are you running? We
have never been able to repro this here.

installed fine. We are running Server 2003 STD (ver. 5.2.3790). .NET
Framework 1.1 (ver 1.1.4322.573). No Visual Studio installed.

be the issue even though it is supposed to be optional. I will try it when I
get the chance and see what happens.

Another question, is there anyway to actually pull data from the Exchange
system without installing the SSW softeware extraction piece on the Exchange
server?

that a seperate product you have to buy? I'd be curious to hear from anyone
who made this work. Thanks.
