Update fails to install on XP Pro

D

Dave

I am running Windows XP Pro SP2 and automatic updates is continually failing
to install Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 1 (KB110806)
..
Even when I try to mannually install it directly from the update site I get
an error: Installation Failure rror Code: 0x643

I can find nothing on this problem on Google.

Does anyone know what might be causing this problem?

Install manually from the *download* site rather than the update site.
"Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 1 (x86)"

Thanks Detlev

When I intall manually I get the following messages in the error log:

[12/15/07,07:38:11] Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0a: [2] Error: Installation
failed for component Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0a. MSI returned error code
1603
[12/15/07,10:14:22] Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0a: [2] Error: Installation
failed for component Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0a. MSI returned error code
1603
[12/15/07,10:15:05] WapUI: [2] DepCheck indicates Microsoft .NET Framework
2.0a is not installed.

My Add/Remove programs shows the following
Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1
Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Hotfix (KB886903)
Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0
Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0

I am going to try to uninstall 3 and 2 and then reinstall to see if that
works.

Thanks again for your help.

See if the following MSKB article applies:
"You receive an "error 1603: A fatal error occurred during installation"
error message when you try to install a Windows Installer package"
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/834484/en-us

Since the "InstallShield Engine" (not applicable) takes advantage of the
Windows Installer in some cases, this article may apply as well:
"Error 1603: Fatal Error During Installation"
http://consumer.installshield.com/kb.asp?id=Q111019
My Add/Remove programs shows the following
Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1
Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Hotfix (KB886903)
Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0
Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0

That's okay. Besides, .NET Framework 3.5 has been released for WinXP as
well - it includes SP1 for .NET Framework 2.0 and 3.0.
I am going to try to uninstall 3 and 2 and then reinstall to see if that works.

Yes, in exactly that order if the articles above do not help.

I am having the same problem. The update for Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0
Service Pack 1 (KB110806) will not install. Anyone know if this is an
important item for security or for normal use of the operating sytem.

I have a fix for Microsoft.net frame 2.0 I have spent countless hours
researching this subject. It started when one of our office computers would
not load Quick books. I would like to ask for a small donation for my help,
I am
trying to scrape up some cash for a new computer. You can reach me at
(e-mail address removed) or call me at 206 664 1913.
