Does that install have a verbose option for it from the command line?
I don't think you are getting enough clues from the log about
what is happening with it. Otherwise having another user's
log of a successful install for comparison purposes might help.
Another option would be using ProcMon to supplement whatever
diagnostics you do find.

BTW are you doing a boot before you test with MBSA?
I can see that the log says it shouldn't be necessary
but you never know--sometimes rebooting changes things
for the better. ; )


Good luck

Hi Robert,

Thanks for your update,

I did install the updates with Admin account, with which acount should I try
this again? or did I miss understood your comments. and yes we did reboot the
server before running the MBSA again.

I'm suggesting finding the logs from an identical machine
which has successfully installed the update in question.
Use those logs to check for differences in yours.

I don't use your OS so I can't help in that regard.
That's why I'm cross-posting to a W2K NG
in case someone there would like to comment
about your log.


> and yes we did reboot the server before running the MBSA again.


And did you try to see if there is a verbose logging option
for that update? (My _first_ suggestion.) ; )

Seems that it should.

Even if the /help switch doesn't list it...

Note You can combine these switches into one command. For backward
compatibility, the security update also supports the setup switches that the
previous version of the setup utility uses. For more information about the
supported installation switches, see Microsoft Knowledge Base Article
262841.

...I would try adding /verbose to your comand line.

<title>Command-line switches for Windows software update packages</title>

<quote>
/verbose Enable verbose logging.
Creates %Windir%\CabBuild.log upon install that details files to be copied.
Using this switch may cause the installation to occur much slower.
Version 5.3.24.3 and later versions support the /verbose switch.
For compatibility with older versions, the /v switch can be used.

Good luck
