Cant install .net 3.5 sp1 on windows server 2008
Posted by Chasseur d'étoiles, 11-30-2009, 02:52 PM |
I am trying to install subtext via the Web Platform Installer on my Windows server 2008 VPS.
To install it I need the .net framework version 3.5 SP1. It actually fails definetly each time I try, so I tried to install the SP1 manually. I failed with the error message :
When I tried to install the .net 2.0 SP1 x64 it says that it is not supported by vista (?!). I tried to clean up every .net version of my server using the cleanup tool and then install the 3.5sp1 back (and even 2.0sp1) both failed with same error codes.
I am not able to use the Windows update since it is a virtuozzo VPS (and it is said that if I use Windows update it will break my VPS because updates are streamlined by Virtuozzo... ) but the windows update service is started.
Currently the versions installed are :
- .Net 2.0.50727.1434
- .Net 3.0.4506.648
Any hints on solving this issue ?

You have to use the server manager window to add it as a feature rather than installing it from a setup program.

It does not seem like a possible solution

Do you know know if you are trying to install the 32bit asp .net 3.5 instead of the 64bit asp .net 3.5 install? And is your updater service running?

I thought it was that at first but I verified and every binaries where x64 ones. Also the windows update service is running (manual service).

Sorry - I was thinking of 2008 R2 for server manager. 3.5 actually installs 2.0 then adds the 3.5 extras afterwards, so it makes sense that they are failing with the same error code.
