Microsoft has released another SharePoint 2013 Cumulative Update in November 2014. Let me help you know how we can install  November 2014 on SharePoint 2013 server.

Its per-requisites is either SharePoint 2013 SP1 or SharePoint 2013 March PU.

Now the most important part is how to install SharePoint server November 2014 Cumulative Update.

Previous releases of the SharePoint Server 2013 cumulative update included both the executable and the .CAB file in the same self-extracting executable download. Because of the file size, the SharePoint Server 2013 package has been divided into several separate downloads. One contains the executable file, while the others contain the CAB file. All are necessary and must be placed in the same folder to successfully install the update. All are available by clicking the same Hotfix Download Available link in the KB article for the release.

Here is link for all the updates:

Sharepoint Foundation 2013 has only 1 setup file 479983_intl_x64_zip.exe

Download SharePoint Foundation 2013 November 2014 CU

 

Now here the twist starts, SharePoint 2013 update has 3 setup files 479926_intl_x64_zip.exe, 479925_intl_x64_zip.exe, 479924_intl_x64_zip.exe: You can download this from:

Project Server 2013 update has 3 setup files 480040_intl_x64_zip.exe, 479930_intl_x64_zip.exe, 479929_intl_x64_zip.exe: You can download this from below

The KB articles for September CU are available at the following locations:

• KB 2899468 – SharePoint Foundation 2013 November 2014 CU
• KB 2889944 – SharePoint Server 2013 November  2014 CU
• KB 2889949 – SharePoint Server 2013 with Project Server November 2014 CU
• No Office Web Apps Server 2013 CU released this month
  

Once the updated the downloaded you need to extract all the updates in 1 folder as shown below:

• Now when you run the main setup file ubersrv.exe file, you will be able to extract and install the update.
• Once you install these updates, you need to reboot the server
• Now system needs to be restarted.
• Follow the same steps on all SharePoint servers in farm.
• SharePoint PSconfig wizard on all servers.
• Finally it is installed

Note : SharePoint Server 2013 update contains the SharePoint Foundation update.Where as SharePoint Server 2013 with Project Server update contains Project Server update, SharePoint Server update and SharePoint Foundation update.

 

[Update 2014-11-12] When trying to download the fix for KB 2889944 (SharePoint Server 2013 November 2014 CU) you will notice that there are 4 files listed rather than the usual 3 files. One of the files is corrupt and does not belong to the CU. You can ignore it. When receiving the mail with the download links just skip the file with name 479985_intl_x64_zip.exe.
