Re: Can not install Service pack 2 for Small business server 2003

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Have you applied SP1? I did not. Might try that, if it work, then move on
to SP2....

Pretty much the same process here. Went through the staged "fixes"
(Cryptographic Services, rename Catalog directories [or whatever]).
Managed
to fix the intermediate updates but SP2 AND NOW Net Framework 3.0 fail to
update.

In trying to apply Vista compatability patch, the program reports that
"This
version of Server 2003 needs at least SP1"!!! So the new Dell Workstation
won't work properly.

My tolerance of Microsoft ubiquity is diminishing rapidly.

Am trying a re-boot and trying again this evening.

Microsoft:

Was able to run the backlogged updates (after step 3, rename CatRoot2
fix),
but SP2 still will NOT install.

Me too, SBS 2003 has been failing to install for three months now.
Either
from Windows Update on IE6 OR from downloadable setup.exe.

The latest version also fails, but at least tries to install (previous
version wouldn't get past checksum error [or similar]).

I note no replies to this question. Looks like this is a known problem
and
MS may be struggling to fix it...
