SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 4 download but does not install.

Have tried several times to install the update, but it does not update. Don't know how to force an update.

Hi vintagejames,

·        How long have you been experiencing this problem?

·        You receive an error message?

·        You install the update via windows update or manually?

I suggest you try the steps mentioned below and check if it helps.

Method 1: Try disabling the security software temporarily.

Note:  Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

Method 2: Try to install the stand-alone package manually. See the link for the last update:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/913089

    update of sql server 2005 service pack 3 error code 6D9E Windows update security does not accept the update

    Hey lasdj,

    Thanks for posting in the Microsoft answers site!

    If you receive Windows Update error 6d9e while installing SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 3 by using Windows Update, it means that the installation folders and directories are compressed or encrypted.

    To fix this problem, make sure the folder locations where you are installing the service pack to aren't compressed or encrypted, or specify a different folder and then run Windows Update again.

    Therefore, remove the compression of the DATA directory and run together to the top again.

    Remove compression from the C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server folder and see if you are able to install the updates without any problem.

    See the links below for more details:
