Errors while installing SP2 for Windows 2008

  • Article

I've noticed we've had a couple of calls lately with customers having issues getting SP2 installed for Windows Server 2008. Typically the error seen is:

"You need to install Windows Server Service Pack 1 before continuing. After you install Windows Service Pack 1, restart this installation."

This can occur for a number of reasons, but the three most common are as follows:

  • At some point the beta or RC version of the Service Pack was installed and needs to be removed
  • Another package hasnt finished installing properly and needs to be finalized.
  • The actual servicing stack is corrupted and cannot be repaired.

Normally, its the second reason that is the problem. Looking into most CBS.logs shows the following information (the error code that is typical is in bold):

If you run CheckSUR against these machines (KB947821), you will notice that there is typically one update that has missing manifests (which looks similar to the log entries below):

Checking component watchlist.

Checking packages.

(f) CBS MUM Missing 0x00000002 servicing\packages\Package_for_KB955430_server_0~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.0.1.18005.mum                  

(f) CBS MUM Missing 0x00000002 servicing\packages\Package_for_KB955430_server~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.0.1.18005.mum

The solution for this is to copy these .mum files from a machine that is working and has SP2 installed and copy them over to the installation with the problem. Re-run CheckSUR to make sure that the logs are clear and then re-run the SP2 installer.

 

If the issue is truly store corruption, you will see similar log entries to the following. These cannot be fixed and require a machine to be restored or an in-place upgrade to be performed to recover the component store.

    Actually, no, you still need to reapply most of the fixes. The best way to do an inplace would be for you to have an integrated service pack installation that matches what you had prior to doing the inplace, that will minimize the time to reinstall fixes.

    Can I do an in-place reinstall of Windows Vista or Windows 7 like I could do for Windows XP in the case when system files are missing or damaged?

    What about hotfixes? I guess they're all intact after in-place upgrade due to the new stack which seems to have improved in this area? Or do hotfixes/MSUs need to be reinstalled?

    This will resolve the issue- Check HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersion for CSD Version and change to Service Pack 1 if its not Service Pack 1 -          Check the Value of “CurrentState” registry key in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionComponent Based ServicingPackagesKB936330~31bf3856ad364e35~x86~~6.0.1.18000 -          If the value is not 7,Change it to 7
