Re: Security Update for SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2 (KB948109) (MSSMLBIZ) Update Problem

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance



The fix for an "installation source...is not available" error when attempting to install a hotfix/update is the same fix for an "installation source...is out of sync with the client package" error when attempting to *uninstall* a hotfix/update?

In this situation, should the line...

6. Uninstall the SQL Server 2005 Express Edition hotfix package again

n KB955250 be replaced with...

"Attempt to install the SQL Server 2005 Express Edition hotfix package again" ??

Hello Folks,
I obtained the following from the SQL Team:

The 0x6AA error (or decimal 1706) is caused by missing media. This issue is
documented in KB 955250. The KB has instructions on how they can proceed on
it.

If the "Public Team" does not handle consumer issues or "free support for
any issues with Security Updates," it's misnamed IMHO.

Please call 1-800-936-4900 and open a case and ask to be routed to the
SQL-Public Team. There is no charge for this case as it has to do with a
Security Bulletin.

When you call please let them know that this has to do with Security
Bulletin MS08-040.

If they try to charge you, please let them know that there is free
support
for any issues with Security Updates.

I have XP Home Edition upgraded to SP3 and am trying to get the Subject
security update to install, but after a long (I'm still using dialup)
download and attempted installation, I get the following error message:

"The feature you are trying to use is on a CD-ROM or other removable
disk that is not available.

Insert the 'Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition (MSSMLBIZ)' disk
and click OK. So I clicked OK and got the following message:

"The path 'Please insert next disk' cannot be found. Verify that you
have access to this location and try again, or try to find the
installation package 'sqlrun_sql.msi' in a folder from which you can
install the product Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition"

The only disks that came with my computer are a "System Recovery CD"
and a "Drivers Resource CD".

I may add that after reading various post on the same subject I found
this error message in the HotFix File:

This is after attempting to manually install from a downloaded version.

I got the same message on 07/16/2008 when attempting to get it from the
update site.

I'm not that computer savvy and have no idea what to do next. Any
assistance is greatly appreciated.
