RE: Exch 5.5 - SP4 update error
Stop any unnecessary services. I would stop services like antivirus scanning, backup services, performance monitoring...even exchange monitoring. It should be a straightforward upgrade if you have stopped all those services.

Re: Exch 5.5 - SP4 update error
Erm, not wanting to teach how to suck eggs and all that but a few suggestions based on my experience have you checked the event logs - IS stopping suddenly sounds like a DB corruption (event - 1018 or similar) also might give more clues as to why the SP u/g stops, I have done 100's of SP3 and SP4 updates without any trouble, - from a technical point of view they really are quite a simple (low-tech) process, i.e it does some checks it stops all the Exchange services it copies new versions of the exchange files (this is where most of the problems come in - due to files being locked by services Starts services again also - as mentioned below stop all other services, categories to look at include Hardware Agents - i.e Compaq Insight Manager, Dell hwtools etc... **IMHO - these are usually the culprit the installer will sit there for ages and most people forget about these** SNMP service Backup Exec Agents IIS A/V Software - including any non-exchange aware s/w Scheduler service Check disk space, run chkdsk on the volume with the system files? Might also be worth re-applying the NT service pack (6a?) before running this update - maybe your problem lies with the DLL registration of the files you mentioned, or out-of-date versions. Could also be worth turning up the logging in Exchange properties to see if that sheds any light on it - for example if the IS doesn't shutdown cleanly during the SP upgrade. Just a few ideas/...

RE: Exch 5.5 - SP4 update error
Appreciate the suggestions but there is nothing I have not already done.so far, still need that one other person who has a similar experience and has either worked through it or called Microsoft. But hey, isn't that what this newsgroup is for, i.e. to ask questions and hopefully to get answers I don't have or use backupexec on this server. The event logs point to what I have previously written, nothing that helped. Yes, I know it does not make sense, I expect if all went smoothly w/o errors or problems I too could say it's low-tech, don't need that, 'nuff said. The error is in the logfile, there are many NT std files that are not foundKernel32.dll, security.dll, version.dll, ole32.dll, wsock32.dll and about 5 more, it seems that after it takes enough of these errors it just stops, exits and says I can continue the install later.

Ever since that occurred, whenever I try to manually patch the server, it wants IIS re-enbled. HTH - good luck. BTW - I started using Update Expert and I don't have to deal with this type of stuff anymore.

Kernel32.dll, ole32.dll, comdlg.dll etc.during the update, TechNet seems to indicate that using the log is the best way to determine what's wrong... All the missing files in the log is all that is obvious to me. I d/l ALL the sp4 zip files from the Microsoft site. Anyone else had this problem ? What is the resolution ?
