Problems installing SP1

[i.r.f.]

I'm having a lot of trouble installing 1.1 SP1, I've seen postings with
similar problems but none of the solutions posted have worked for me, I'd
appreciate any suggestions. I'm on Win2kSP4 with everything up-to-date from
Windows Update (except for the .NET1.0SP3 and .NET1.1SP1 which refuse to
install).

When I run the installer directly (either 1.0SP3 or 1.1SP1, and either from
WU or from a command line) I get an exception in some ".tmp" file (I think
the names varies, usually starts with S). This occurs before any installer
UI appears.

Following a posted suggestion I tried extracting the 1.1SP1 msp and running
"msiexec /p S867460.msp /l*v c:\sp1.log REINSTALL=ALL" directly. This gets
further, but now it complains about missing netfx.msi, I've tried extracting
the file from the original 1.1 package and putting it where it wants it,
then I'm getting "Internal Error 2356.
_2564_csc_exe_config_rtl________.msm".

I can't get any further than that.

I tried attaching the resulting installer log file but it gets rejected by
the new server
because of its size so I can't include it, but I'll can forward it by email.
It does contain
a bunch of errors complaining about the wrong language, I'm not sure why
those would
happen, I've never installed any other language components on this machine.

Any help is appreciated, I'm stuck.

Sounds like your cached MSI from your 1.1 install is missing. Do the
following to repair your 1.1 install:

dotnetfx.exe /q /t:%tmp% /c:"msiexec.exe /fvecms %tmp%\netfx.msi"

Note that a "double-click install" of dotnetfx.exe will not do a repair,
you must use the command line.

Then try installing the service pack again.

Thanks Joel,

I'll try that, I can't do it right now but I'll give it a shot tomorrow
morning.

OK, I tried that, and it seemed to help. I still got a crash when I ran the
SP1 setup file, but when I ran "msiexec /p S867460.msp" it actually got all
the way through this time.

[ For anyone else stuck on this, the command to extract the .msp from the
setup file (NDP1.1sp1-KB867460-X86.exe) is
c:\NDP1.1sp1-KB867460-X86.exe /xp:c:" ]

Thanks again!
