Guest Myaushka Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 You have to start all the instances to install successfully. http://blog.jemm.net/2008/07/09/sql-server-2005-security-update-kb948109-fails-to-install-with-error-code-0x773f-how-to-fix/ "dp" wrote: > Unticking SQL Express made no difference at all. > > "Tornalca" wrote: > > > > > > When installing untick the SQL Express Instance(This is what makes it fail), > > I don't use it so do not care if this is updated.

Guest uzr Posted July 11, 2008 Posted July 11, 2008 did not work for me either. Besides, automatic update is supposed to be automatic.

Guest Detlev Dalitz Posted July 11, 2008 Posted July 11, 2008 I've searched the internet to find some hints. One hint was to deactivate the VIA protocol, but on the specific computer the VIA protocol was not activated yet. One hint points to an authentification problem and suggested to set the proper rights for the update process to modify some registry keys, but it was not said what keys. There were no compressed master database or log files. The event protocols proved that there were problems with the MSO SmallBusiness SQL server MSSQL$MSSMLBIZ, which was installed along with the SQL Express server MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS. Some error descriptions (german): Die Beschreibung der Ereigniskennung ( 17182 ) in ( MSSQL$MSSMLBIZ ) wurde nicht gefunden. Der lokale Computer verfügt nicht über die zum Anzeigen der Meldungen von einem Remotecomputer erforderlichen Registrierungsinformationen oder DLL-Meldungsdateien. Möglicherweise müssen Sie das Flag /AUXSOURCE= zum Ermitteln der Beschreibung verwenden. Weitere Informationen stehen in Hilfe und Support. Ereignisinformationen: 5 1 / 51.

At last of my one-day-research I've decided to complete uninstall the MSO SmallBusiness SQL server MSSQL$MSSMLBIZ and leave the SQL Express server. Afterwards the MS Update process runs the July 2008 Patch without any errors. Now it is left to me to install the MSO SmallBusiness SQL server MSSQL$MSSMLBIZ again and see what will happen.

Guest Mike Wotton Posted July 12, 2008 Posted July 12, 2008 I might be simple, but if MS find an error and give it an identification name, why when you ask what it is, they do not recognise it.

Guest seeker Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 I have a totally new wrinkle on this. Apparently there are a myriad of things that can cause this. In my case, I do not run SQL-SERVER unless I need it: it and its related services are set to manual. Well…… over time the folder’s lack of use make it a candidate for auto-compression. So the install couldn’t start the engine because it was compressed and needed uncompressing. (Found in the Event log). To uncompress select all files in the folder, go to the advanced button and uncheck the compress to save space check box. Start the server and related services then run the update. Or let the download run at next prompt to install.
Guest Yalin Meric Posted August 11, 2008 Posted August 11, 2008 Thanks Tornalco! You saved me from a disturbance. Although it is not nice to know this will leave a security hole in my local SQL server, it is not a big deal i guess.

Can't find any help references to > that error code. Any suggestions? Ok, so I've had the same problem and none of the solutions in here worked. I went through the log files and made a couple changes that ended up working. 1. Add registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer\Debug - a REG_DWORD that I gave a value of 1. 2. Make sure the SQL Server VSS Writer service is started. For me, the service was disabled. I put it in automatic mode and started it. After making these two changes, I reran the update and it worked. Hopefully this will help other people.

Guest MOC Ewez Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 KB948109 Update Error Code 0x733F - MOC Ewez After trying all Buckets ideas " * Tried to get it to work using automatic updates - always failed. * Reboot PC - still failed. * Reinstalled automatic update software and try again - still failed. * Checked SQL server databases not compressed. * Checked SQL server instances running (tried all combinations of running and stopped). * Downloaded the X86 patch and installed manually - still failed. * Tried disabling parts of the patch (e.g. switch of SQL Express) - still failed. * Finally gave up and disabled the update! " I also tried: - Make sure Windows installer is okay. MSIExec /Unreg MSIExec /RegServer - These had help me before with WU problems (Only the top one was necessary then) regsvr32 wups2.dll regsvr32 wuapi.dll regsvr32 wuaueng.dll regsvr32 wuaueng1.dll regsvr32 wucltui.dll regsvr32 wups.dll regsvr32 wups2.dll regsvr32 wuweb.dll - Update Windows installer from 3.1 to 4.5 http://www.microsoft.com/downloadS/details.aspx?familyid=5A58B56F-60B6-4412-95B9-54D056D6F9F4&displaylang=en - Turned off Windows Firewall (Didn't even know that it started after uninstalling McAfee firewall) None of these helped me. What did help though was indeed changing the Service Logon to local System Account This has been mentioned before and I thought I had tried it before. (Actually checked it many times) Turns out the Service name is: SQL Server (Express) And not MSSQLServer (\....) A blindman's error yes, but you guys know how it is staring at a problem for so many hours....
