I updated to XP SP2 and since then i've tied to use windows update and the
two things it lists are .net framework 1.0 sp3 and .net framework 1.1 sp1.
However, when i tell it to install, it tells me that they failed to install
with no reason why. I checked and for .net 1.0 i had sp1, so i upgraded to
sp2 with no problems (by downloading the file), then i tried to do the same
thing in upgrading to sp3, but this time i got an error. It said:
Internal Error 2755. 1612,
C:/WINDOWS/Installer/4f72c2.msi

what does this mean? I couldnt find it on the knowledge base.

Thanks

Hello Michael,

Might it be an SP2 issue? Both have installed just fine on my XP SP1.
 
I have seen such errors when MSI installer service is shutdown or has turned
manual. You can go to "services" and restart the service and try it again..
:(
 
Windows XP service pack 2 once installed, closes some ports on your machine.
This is because the XP personal firewall is enabled. You can try disabling
the personal firewall. or manually enable the required ports. Firstly try
and disable the firewall completely to see if that makes any difference, if
it does, but you need it enabled, then try and see which ports are closed
and which ones need to be opened.

Windows Installer: (MicroSoft Installer) service. Its executable is called
msiexec.exe .. Sorry for the confustion.
 
2755 is "Server returned unexpected error [2] attempting to install package
[3]". In your instance [2] would be 1612 and [3] would be the SP.

Error code 1612 is ERROR_INSTALL_SOURCE_ABSENT. When you install an
MSI-based product, the Microsoft Installer (MSI) service caches the MSI for
the product. So this error means that your cached MSI is missing. Can you
try the following to see if this fixes your issue?

1. Download .NET Framework 1.0 RTM package (dotnetfx.exe)
2. Open a command prompt and run dotnetfx.exe /t:%temp% /c:"msiexec.exe
/fvecms %temp%\netfx.msi"
3. Apply SP3

Step 2 will do a repair of your .NET Framework install and will re-cache
the MSI. Note that double-clicking on dotnetfx.exe is not enough, you must
use this command line to force the repair.

So I downloaded the file, moved it to the c: drive and when i ran your line
in command prompt, I got a "command line operation syntax error" and nothing
happened.

I tried both your solution and the one above with the firewall and neither
one had any effect on the installation. I found the file and started it but
the install still didnt work.

thanks
