Fixing MSI Files MSP
files:
Launch
media go to last used path or location of the file and then copy the file to
Installer cache and rename with as shown in VBS script file (Repeat this step
for all missing files).
Ex:
As per above details
Go to
the last used path with exists (o:\6c4e8f5248900e41e6b64c80d1\x64\setup\) or If this error message
was generated for rsfx.msi, sql_fulltext.msp then you need to locate this file from the setup media under the
folder structure: MSI:\x64\setup\rsfx_msi\,
MSP:CU\x64\setup\sql_fulltext.msp
Rename
with rsfx.msi to 6690cd2.msi, sql_fulltext.msp to
2b61c3.msp and copy in Installer cache which as shown in VBS script file (Repeat this step for all
missing files).
2) Not clustered or the cluster service is up and
online. Failed
a) This issue occurs because of an invalid MSCluster
namespace in Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI).
Resolution:
To resolve this issue, follow these steps:
1.At an administrative command prompt, type cd
%systemroot%\system32\wbem, and then press Enter.
2.Type the following command, and press Enter:
regsvr32 cluswmi.dll
3.Type the following command, and press Enter:
mofcomp.exe ClusWMI.mof
4.Rerun the Setup of the service packs or cumulative updates
on the serve
In
standalone we have to skip the rules using cmd:
Path of patch executable>:\Setup /SkipRules=Cluster_IsOnlineIfClustered
/action=patch
b) Some cases after running mof also we will get same error
in this case we have to run wmi file .it is mostly happened in 2008 .We can get
wmi file in below node
3) Attributes do not
match:
To work around this problem, remove the Archive attribute
from the installation folder. To do this, follow these steps:
1. Open the folder that contains the folder that has the
Archive attribute.
2. Right-click the folder that you want to remove the
Archive attributes from, and then click Properties.
3. On the General tab, click Advanced.
4. On the Advanced Attributes tab, click to clear the Folder
is ready for archiving check box.
5. Re_run the SQL install
If the installation folder does not exist, remove the
Archive attribute from the closest parent folder. For example, you install SQL
Server 2008 R2 into the following folder:
C:\FolderA\FolderB\FolderC
The FolderC folder does not exist. The FolderB folder has
the Archive attribute set. In this situation, you must remove the Archive
attribute from the FolderB folder.
4) Element not found:
Patch fails with Element not found. Check the errors are listed in the
event logs what are the reasons and Check the disks are presented in the
failover cluster manager or not.
Please check below sample snap I found below Server disks
failed state in cluster manager it’s already decommissioned so I removed failed
state disks in cluster manager, then I applied patch it was successfully
completed. Keep track on the whole cluster manager all services, Nodes and
disks are working or not.
6) Log OR Data directory in the registry is
not valid:
Resolution:
When we check on error details it’s showing the data
registry is not valid. That means below registry patch is not exists on mount
point
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL
Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQLServer
Please check below snap for server all mount points.
So I have changed registry
paths from H:\MSSQL$UTR_MAIN1_UAT\MntVol-Remote-TRANLOG01\Log
to H:\MSSQL$UTR_MAIN1_UAT\MntVol-Remote-TRANLOG02\Log
After changed patch re_run the patch
