Hi

Please Assist. I am trying to install SQL SERVER CU 22 on SQL server 2017. Currently installed CU 20. I am getting this error message: 'There are no SQL Server instances or shared features that can be updated on this computer'.

    Are you sure that you have the correct installation file? It says that the expected version is 14.0.1000.169, which is the RTM version of SQL 2017. Could you mistakenly have gotten hold of a GDR intended for RTM?

    Hi @HaritPatel-9575,

    Could you please check the installation file name is KB4577467?
    And you can download CU 22 for SQL Server 2017 from here.

    Best Regards,
    Amelia

    You have chosen the wrong installation file, the installation file you had currently is only a service pack installer. Find the main SQL installer.
